** 2018 Opponent Previews: Colorado (Game 2) **

[MichiganDad3]

You'll be over it soon. We've got the right leadership, a winning staff with a hard-nosed culture. I think Frost is right. This team was not a 4-8 team last year. And there is no reason we can't achieve higher than Wisconsin has. There's no reason we can't expect immediate success. 50+ new players joined this team to start that new winning tradition.

It's going to be tough and we have to be prepared for the dog fight with Iowa and Wisconsin every year. This year is no different. There's no time to sit back and prepare for the future, we have to win NOW, we have to go big or go home, period.

Mike Riley will become nothing but a flash in the pan in the annals of Nebraska history. I think these players have bought in 100% and have turned the page.

Did you mean "splash in the bowl"?

History means nothing for tomorrow’s game.

That being said, I think NU has the following things going for it:

Our players are aching for live action & I pity whoever is on the other side of the ball.

Colorado is overconfident, based upon their performance against far inferior talent/scheme.

Scott Frost is our playcaller.

We will repeatedly exploit the EDGES of the Buffs’ defense.

I believe that the Cornhuskers will play 4 quarters, every play to the whistle, and our improved conditioning will show in the 2nd half - where you will see a lot of Buffs gasping for breath with hands on hips.

Our defensive players have been taught how to really tackle this year, and are playing for Blackshirts.

Our home crowd will make it very difficult on the Buffs offense & support the home team to victory.

Finally, if there is a QB on Heisman Watch after tomorrow’s contest, I would not be at all surprised if it was true freshman Adrian Martinez.
