Would love to beat those guys. They're far too arrogant for their own good.

Cocky? I don't know. I think their day passed them by, and they're simply trying to relive the day when they'd play a lower tier Big Ten team and take them down 50-7.

They have the guy that they should have hired last time as coach now, I'm sure he'll have them top tier once again in a few years.

This game is a hard one to gauge. We're catching them at the best time possible. I could see it being very close or I could also see us getting blown out if we're not sharp. Either way, I don't see Nebraska taking us lightly after what BSU was able to do against them last year offensively. A high scoring game wouldn't surprise me.

With new coaches, new schemes, and Callahan's athletes playing Pelini's system, who knows? I do expect their defense to be better than they were last year but how much?

The best possible time was when Callahan was at the helm. He was an idiot.

I still believe we will hang around in this game. It should be entertaining.

I second Brewtown... it will be entertaining.

I wont make predictions on scoring... as the last handful of times we've stepped foot on the field with a BCS team (Iowa excluded)... we've made bold predictions about it being a "high scoring affair"... only to watch the offense struggle to move the ball effectively. (mostly due to playing the higher eschelon BCS foes at the onset of the season.). I fear the same let down at the beginning of the season this year... thats why I pin the hopes of a win in this game on the defense...

If we can turn some turn-overs into points... I think we win this one.

Husker fans are starting to talk about this game and their other non-conference games......

Interesting comments after the piece, too.
