The BYU game is on my 40th birthday. I'm pretty excited for the game, and to see how we measure up against a them. BYU is going to be very good this year.

Happy early birthday Huskers! Agreed - this is going to be a huge test to see where we stand currently. One immediate read - BYU on October 18 will not be what they are going to be come March. It will be interesting to see how our experienced guys like Mast, Berke, Lawrence, Hoiberg, etc play against the more talented but more youthful Cougars.
Are you going to the game next Saturday?

Because Frager can't hang his nuts in the face of a top 2 NBA pick if they play Doane?

I'll be there in section 106. Agreed, a team in October will be vastly different in March. There's a few highlights out there from BYU's recent scrimmage. They look like a serious basketball team. Dybantsa looks like he's 25 and in the middle of his NBA career.

Excited to see how we stack up physically. Both teams are going to be toying with a lot of lineups they won't use during the season, but I will overreact anyway. Should be fun.

Speaking of toying with lineups. If Cale is actually a projected starter we are in trouble.

Why would Pavelka's fat uncle know this far out?
Oh I guess Fred must have said in media availability?

It's an exhibition game, but based on how Vegas ended for us - Cale has earned an opportunity.

I'm fine with giving opportunity where it's due for an exhibition. Just stating that obvious that he's not a B1G-caliber starter despite Vegas.

Starter v off the bench, it should be irrelevant. Sam H isn't a B1G caliber guy either, but here we are playing good ball the last 2 seasons with him getting 23 mpg.
Whether Cale can maintain, or even build on Vegas, is what's TBD. And I'm glad he's given a shot.
