Whorns 38
NU 3

And don't tell me that UT won't score on the Blackshirts. They were plain old bad today, and have gotten progressively worse the last few games, mainly because they seem to be exhausted, IMO. An individual can only take so much, and leaning on this defense is wearing them out.

CU's offense is one of the worst in the country, and they hung 403 yards on the Blackshirts. CU probably deserved to win the game, but made more critical mistakes...and that's why they're 3-9.

Good chance it tain't going to be pretty. If NU keeps doing what it's been doing on offense, the defense will get tired and the game will be over.

They play the game for a reason, so of course NU has a chance, but I see....

TU 35 :rawk:
NU 9 (NU has the best kicker by far)

And if SUH doesn't win a boatload of awards, the entire system is screwed up.

However, I would add, it would be a hoot to see the BCS go into a tail spin if NU wins.

Enjoy the trip to San Diego.

I'd 'like' that too but I suspect it'll be more like 31 to 10 - - - - texass :cry:

Nebraska will lose. I am not even sure about the final score, but do not feel too good about this one.

Zac Lee suddenly finds the will to be decisive, Burkhead and Helu both have 100 yard days, Shawn Watson gets duct-taped to a locker room wall, and Nebraska breaks out of its offensive slump to score about 50 on Texas.

Ahhhhhhh, so pleasant. Wake me when it's over.

The Blackshirts will do well but will spend too much time on the field and give up points to a very good offense with great QB. The Husker offense is pathetic and inconsistent.

Texas 31
Huskers 9

Lee gets hurt on first series. Watson curls up in fetal position and Bo has to call plays. Cody Green comes in and the Huskers put up 450 yds rushing on the Whorns.

42-3

Texas is a 15.5 favorite over NU.

FWIW, they were a 21 point favorite over A&M last week.

Anything can happen.

I Agree! This is on game I am not going to predict who is going to win. It should be a close one.

TU 42

Hope it aint so...... but like everyone else here has said, the NU Offense probably isnt good enough to keep TU's offense off the field.
