Maybe emotion is taking over or maybe it is contrary opinion. Most Nebraskans think NU will get killed this week because of what happened last week against Wake Forest. Most of the time the fans are wrong. So.............my prediction is Nebraska 30 USC 27. Yes Nebraska will win. USC is going to see what NU fans are made of and they will see at site that they have never seen before as the stadium will be rockin!
Even though this writer's preseason prediction was a loss, Nebraska will prove that guess wrong. They will win and this is how they will do so.
1. Nebraska will attack USC's speed by running directly at the linebackers between the tackles. Cody Glenn and Quentin Castille will run 20 times and with Marlon Lucky our line will wear down USC. Strength against speed.
2. Maurice Purify will have a great game scoring twice. Sam Keller will be more accurate. Todd Peterson will have the game of his life.
3. Suh and Octavian will be possessed. Booty won't make it through the game as the fans will jack up the defense. USC will have four turnovers and Nebraska will score on two of them and the offensive will score after one of them.
4. Nebraska will take care of the ball and will only have one turnover.
5. The fans and the home field will be worth 10 points.
6. Zach Potter will block one crucial USC FG.
7. Special teams will get an A+ rating.
8. Zach Bowman will show his leadership and captain the secondary to a very respectable game.
9. One trick play will result in a TD.
10. USC has had the week off and has only played Idaho. The NU-Wake Forest game was great preparation for the USC shootout.
11. USC's kicker is David Buehler (pronounced Beeler). No Boehler or Buehler have ever won a big game.
So, start doing your research because this writer would guess that the trivia question on next week's Big Red Wrap-up show will be "Prior to this week, when was the last time Nebraska was rated in the Top 10?" Nebraska moves up to #7 after this game. And keep praying!

Wow...wouldn't that be exciting if that happened!! I'm SO excited for the game!
Well first off it will be cool to here David "Beeler" said at the game even if he is at USC. But that is besides the point. I think after the last game it will be extremely difficult to win but I think we have a chance. If Nebraska fans can stay loud during the huddle and not just when they line up on the field, we can probably help them out a little. I do have faith that they can win, so hopefully they won't disappoint. I just hope that the players have faith in themselves and really believe that they can win.

P.S. I am very excited for the game!!! It is going to be an amazing experience in Memorial Stadium!!
I hope you're rite! Hope you're rite! Hope you're rite!
Wow, you have how the game is going to go down to every little detail. I really think NU can win, but do I think they will, not so sure. I think we will play good, not poor but not great and will be down by 7-10 point most of the game and feel like we are in it but never get close enough to have a chance. USC might put up another score late in the fourth to make the score look worse than it really was.
I really hope we win and will be cheering my heart out. We have a great chance if we put the right things together in the right order. Go Huskers!!!!!!!!
