[HuskerDocCo]

I woke up saying superfluously to myself.

Hopefully Nebraska superfluously beats the shit out of Cincinnati. I wanna hear Kelces rave about the Huskers on New Heights next week.

is that somethin Peter north used to do?

RVP’s piece makes me want to drop a snot bubble on someone.

 

[Kinish]

I guarantee there are going to be 10,000 moronic Husker fans who can't get into the stadium tonight because they try to pay with Cash. I am chuckling thinking about it.

On the other side of the ball, secondary coach John Butler was elevated to defensive coordinator after last season, earning a promotion despite a poor ranking in Defensive Pass EPA.

Nebraska fell to 117th in Defensive Passing Downs EPA and now fields a secondary full of transfers. Butler has promised to have a more aggressive style with blitz after the Huskers finished 25th in Havoc.

If the experienced defensive line can keep Nebraska in the top 20 in Quality Drives allowed and Finishing Drives allowed, opponents will continue to send games under the total.

Secondary full of transfers? We have one with Marshall. Maybe a second if Conn works his way into the lineup at some point.

It's amazing in a world full of so much data at our fingertips that most of these predictions get simple data points wrong.

Its possible they might be referring to Wright, Marshall, and Singleton all being previous transfers.

It’s not hard to pull over to the side and buy a parking pass on your phone? I’ve done it multiple times when I forget to buy them

But he says we have an experienced defensive line…which is a little questionable

OMFG!!! GOOSEBUMPS

 

[Quint]

That’s the way I took it, but it’s kind of disingenuous.

If they’d ALL transferred in since the end of last year, yeah, I get it, but Marshall is the only new face in the group of starters.

I’m starting to think most of the crap I read about sports in general is AI generated.

 

[redzoner]

Could be but that still seems like a stupid take when Wright started most games last year and Singleton is going into his 4th year here.

Over/under on number of pages this thread hits? Thinking 38

I’m guessing it’ll be at least 10 pages before kickoff, so 45 seems about right.
