Nebraska has its hands full this Thursday against Kansas State. His name is Daniel Thomas. Possible Heisman candidate...He will be a difference maker tomorrow night. Earlier I had Nebraska losing by seven points in my mind. I think it will be that tough however I do believe now Nebraska will pull out an overtime victory. This victory may take a Matt Davison type catch to win.
Why will Thomas be such a challenge. It appears we have a weak spot when teams run to their left. Teams have controlled the ball at will running in this area. We have to have our linebackers step up! We have to hope the safeties don't have to help so much they get beat a couple times in the game on long passes.
So Nebraska will be able to run. Kansas State will be able to run. Both passing offenses will have some success and a bomb or two for touchdowns. Mike McNeil has to have a big night for NU to win. Both coaches are excellent. Trick plays will be a factor and watch Daniel Thomas out of the backfield throwing the ball a couple of times out of the wildcat or on an end around play.
Special teams are both good but I might give a nod to KSU on punting and punt returns.
This game could last a while with the overtime so don't go to bed too early.
NU 34 Kansas 31 in Overtime!!!!
I have watched both UFL game the Omaha Nighthawks have played. Wouldn't the Bears, Eagles, or Cardinals like to have either Jeff Garcia or Josh McCown. McCown actually looked the best of the QB's I have seen but Garcia is nothing to sneeze about. Daunte Culpepper can still throw the ball better than anybody but his legs are gone.
