[JJ Husker]

I predict Nebraska struggles to run the ball and loses this game. 

 

[NebraskaHarry]

Yeah, I know.

Like most games since 2014, I truly don't know what to expect with any reasonable certainty.

Better be able to run the ball.

Run early.  Run often.  Win the game.  Winning will go a long way in helping the Huskers to get over the mental hump they seem to be unable to climb over.  IIRC we haven't beat them in 3 years...And they pretty much kicked the sh!t out of us.

I'm hoping to see a rebound- emotionally healthy response to last week's game.  Time to build some emotional strength into the team and get rid of the losing mentality.
