How many more times can you guys play the "we didn't want to be there card" about the holiday bowl All that tells me is that you doubt the team's heart and character. But as long as we're talking motivation, I think the dawgs have a little payback in mind in front of your fans. Look, I don't have any illusions that the Huskies are going to go into Lincoln and tear the place up. They'll be lucky to come away with a close win. But look, your lock down corners from last year graduated except the guy who is hurt, right? And he's, well, hurt. The offensive line the Huskies dominated in the Holiday bowl is essentially gone, right, so is the new line as good? The husky D line that dominated the Holiday bowl is back, with some stud backups. We still have Chris Polk, and some NFL talent at WR and TE. This is going to be a good game, I think. Remember, pride goeth before the fall.

which side are you talking too..... the last time I checked you guys are talking as much as we are.... and we arent the huge underdog here.

the 'umadbro' is the epitome of trolling within the internet meme world.

You're wrong, I just state that Keith Price had 7 TD passes. Then he came back and personally attacked me. My fault? Ok.

Did the huskies lose a saftey for the game?

Maybe, but Sark says they're really deep at Safety:

SAFETY CONCERNS?
The free safety position has become a bit of an issue for the Huskies just a day before they leave for Lincoln.

On Wednesday, Sarkisian said that starting free safety Nate Fellner is “doubtful” for Saturday’s game because of a strained hamstring. Fellner dressed out for practice and did some light running, but he did not participate in any team drills.

To make matters worse, Taz Stevenson, who had been sharing some reps with Justin Glenn on the first-team defense, was rolled up on in practice and tweaked his surgically repaired left knee, which had been bothering him for much of fall camp.

“We’ll have to see how he comes out of it, but he was pretty sore,” said Sarkisian, who also didn’t seem too worried.

“It’s probably one of our deepest positions on our team, so we’ll be OK.”

That leaves the oft-injured Glenn and Will Shamburger as the likely replacements. True freshman James Sample also is an option, but he has been battling a sore shoulder. Also listed on the depth chart is junior Greg Walker, who has some experience and started the LSU game a few years ago but never seeing significant time again. He suffered a mild concussion on special teams against Hawaii.

Reading the first bit of the article makes it seem like no one watched the first two Husker games. I didn't see ANY touching of a receiver by the Blackshirts. Did any of you?

The moment the ball is snapped and Kearse leaves the line of scrimmage, he will be bumped, pushed, grabbed and jostled for the first 5 yards of his route.

And it isn’t just because he’s Washington’s top receiver. The other Huskies receivers also will be physically hassled.

Why? Because the Cornhuskers can, and they are good at it.

The “press coverage” is a major facet of what Nebraska does on defense. It’s what the Huskers did in the two games against UW last season. And it’s likely what they’ll do on Saturday.

“It worked well for them before, so why would they change?” Kearse said.

Well I guess they have plenty of excuses now...

Why indeed...

Yeah, I caught that, too. Weird that they said that since we clearly have been playing soft coverage without Fonzie.
