We need to find this!

To be fair, Maryland and Minnesota still have better offenses than Northwestern, Cockeye, and even Penn State now with their back up QBs.

I do think UCLA is clearly playing better offensively, but I'm not ready to say they're better yet. If you take away games vs. Penn State and Michigan State, Nico has 3 TDs and 5 turnovers. However, I do expect Nico to run for 120+ vs. Nebraska.

Speaking of UCLA, keep an eye on their roster vs. Indiana. They have a lot of dudes, including Nico, who are injured. Maybe the bye before Nebraska helps them, but they had 4 starters receive MRIs this week. Berger and Nico have both been limited. I think they're holding on by a string.

I don’t buy Minnesota having a better offense than all of the teams you mentioned. I bet they get piss pounded this weekend, but I’ll be happy to be wrong.

i mean, the offense has done just that in 3/5 of our P4 games and the defense pissed away the lead.

Huskers up 20-10 vs. Cincy with 10:46 left in the 4th quarter. defense let them back in.

Huskers up 14-0 vs. Michigan st. In 1st quarter, defense let them back in.

Huskers up 24-14 vs. Maryland towards end of 2nd Q and defense let’s them back in.

Yes the offense sputtered after they got up and that doesn’t help matters, but we also can’t expect them to score every drive. Defense needs to get stops when we build a lead. They’ve failed at that.

Special teams is the only part of the team I have any faith in.

That's where I'm at. If Minnesota can do it to this defense, who on the remaining schedule can't?

Minnesota sucks. I'm not trying to sell you a bunch of goods. All I'm saying is the folks who think Nebraska's defense is going to get worked over by future opponents are mistaken. Hell, they really didn't even get worked over by Minnesota.

I do think USC is going to kick their ass though.

Don't worry about it, just root for a 21st ranked D

If you give up just one 9-minute 98-yard drive in a game, you can probably consider yourself worked over.

If you give up just one 9-minute 98-yard drive in a game, you can probably consider yourself worked over.

And if the score is 21-7 going into that drive, Minnesota would've been scared shirtless to try and use that much clock.

I don’t trust our run defense from the line to our back end with run fits. I think Cockeye will run all over us. Nico also scares the shit out of me.

Good point, he’s gotta be pretty proud of her if he’s willing to post. That’s the angle I’m approaching this from.
