Many years ago when you went to a Nebraska game, there was no question that Nebraska was going to win the game except for Oklahoma, Missouri, and Colorado. It was many times just a blow out. Remember how bad Kansas, Kansas State, and Iowa State were year after year. It was many times a 50-10 type of game.
This past Saturday was probably a game that there was no doubt who had the best talent by far. Not since we beat Minnesota 80 something to very little has the domination been so evident. Now Idaho State had some players but not very many of them on the starting team could play consistently for Nebraska.
Wow what speed we have. Many times it looked like it would be a play for a short gain and the player just flat outrun the Idaho St. players. I pretty think we could have won that game 120-0 if we would have wished to. Competitive wise it was a boring game but it was fun to relax and see some of the younger players play very well.
I didn't predict a score this week but I thought it was going to be 52-3 or something like that. That wasn't even close to what it could have been.
It was fun to watch our offensive players have a great game. It was fun to see turnovers and to see all the sacks we got. I am sure we could have had a lot more of both if we hadn't back down on the play calling.
I even found myself a little ticked off when they scored. I was ticked off when we started turnng over the ball. Oh well, another victory and we did move up in the polls as you usually do on any victory. we are now rated 20th and 22nd.
I was surprised to see UCLA get beat. Each week proves anything can happen EXCEPT that Idaho St was not going to beat NU this year.
Akoy Agau is going to Louisville to play for Rick Pitino. Exciting but he will find that he will just be another one of the players and the fans won't know him. Nebraska fans would have been much more appreciative of his game but we wish him well.
The women's volleyball team rallied to win the final three sets to beat Ohio State 3-1. Great win after two losses. Great job!
The Huskers received their 11th baseball commit from infielder Matt Leuty. He is out of Missesota. Leuty has played second and third and also the ourfield. Leuty picked Nebraska over Notre Dame, Maryland, and Xavier.
This week NU football has Wisconsin in town. Time to get them. They haven't played well this year with a new coaching staff and we need to redeem the blowout from last year. It's a must win for this team. Period.
The Wisconsin game looks to be Bo Pelini's biggest group of recruits attending a game. They have 18 official visits for this game. Nine have already committed but it is huge for the years to come. It will be a great mixture of players with commits helping recruit the other official visitors.
I hated to see Johnny Stanton tore his ACL but he will have two years to heal with a probable redshirt for next year.
The NFL season is as goofy as the college game. Oakland upset the Steelers today. Raiders wide receiver Darrius Heyward-Bey was carted off the field today on a scary hit.
Denny Hamlin won today in Nascar at New Hampshire. He will definately challenge Jimmie Johnson for the Championship.
The Jet's Darrelle Revis suffered a knee injury today.
Arizona beat Philadelphia today.
CJ Spiller was carted off the field with a shoulder injury. He is the Buffalo Bills running back.
Oregon moves to No. 2 behind Alabama in the college football ratings.
The 49ers lost their first game today vs. the Vikings.
Notre Dame is 4-0!!
