Nebraska looks to me like a poorly coached, but somewhat talented team. They did everything in their power that they could to give yesterday's game away.

Nebraska...not feeling Frosty anymore

I'm not buying it.
Nobody on Michigan's team, or coaching staff has ever played a game in Lincoln. It will be a totally new experience for everyone associated with the team. Its a night game, against a team that feels they got a bad shake in Ann Arbor last year.
Every team, even "bad" ones, find one game every year to play their very best game of the season. Nebraska hasn't done that yet. I think it happens next week. They've been pointing to this game for a long time, and a raucous home crowd will spur them on.
I think the combination of Michigan coming in off an emotionally-draining win, and Nebraska returning home to a big friendly crowd, will make things click for the Huskers.
For Michigan to win, Denard must play a flawless game, both in running, and passing. I just don't see that happening in that atmosphere.
It should be close. The Huskers won't blow us out. I'd still make it:
Nebraska 24
Michigan 20"The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, .. I'd worn them for weeks, and they needed the air"

I have zero fear that Michigan will be unable to exploit Nebraska's porous run defense.

so... they should score in the 30's and 40's against UNL.
that said, I was surprised at how well UNL's D played on Saturday. NW doesn't have a bad offense. 10 out of 17 drives UNL forced a 3 and out.Grammar... The difference between feeling your nuts and feeling you're nuts.

But teams that stuff our run render NU pretty much useless on offense. M will stuff our run and DR will run wild.
M 817.5 NU 2.5
Problem is...Taylor cannot handle pressure. At all. He either panics and starts pinballing around in the pocket, or immediate throws the short Out, without looking. He will absolutely not stand tall and throw vertically. His numbers skyrocketed on saturday after NW went up 28-16 and backed off their pressure going with 3 and 4-man rushes. Taylor was 13-25-200 during the first 53 minutes, 10-14-142 in the last seven minutes.
Any DC that doesn't come after Martinez with a minimum of five rushers from start to finish should be immediately fired for incompetence.
