I feel like it should have been #19 USC vs #15 Utah in the Alamo Bowl and then us vs TCU in this

Issue here is the former Pac 12 Big Ten teams are contractually bound to old Pac 12 bowl contracts.

So USC and Washington had to go to those stupid bowls and Nebraska jumped them.
 
First half recap: TJ is at least two years away from being serviceable, DL horrible, safeties insanely bad, not even close to matching physicality, look small compared to the Utes, really dirty tackle on Mozee, hope he’s ok.

Second half prediction: Utah does whatever they want, Dana can’t call much of an offense with TJ so they bleed clock, defense gets worn out, I cry.

We need 30 in the portal and a bunch of scrubs need to be cut right after the game.

Yes, hip drop tackle
 
Huskers may not get the win today without Hunter, EJ, Deshon, and Spindler.

But those four absences really kind of pale to Utah missing out on 4 top 100 NFL prospects today, including 2 top 10 draft picks. The opening spread and advanced numbers are all driven by Utah playing a full season with some absolute dynamic talents.

Will they still be tough to beat? Sure. But the actual talent on the field today will be very even . I think this will be a pretty competitive game.
If the talent is “very even”, I assume you think the Mariana’s trench-sized chasm in what we’re witnessing between the two teams has to do with coaching?
 
Well, it’s been fun fellas! Enjoy the meltdowns and crash outs!

Think I may go crack one of my Eagle Rares and enjoy myself!

Hope everyone has a safe and Happy New Year!!!

🤘😎

(Yes, if we do miraculously get our shit straight in the 2nd half, I will be back to say I told ya so!)
Don’t angry drink your ER - enjoy that beautiful bourbon
