thanks for the kind words and its nice to know another in my boat.
heres the start of my write up for the huskers.
Nebraska
-offense- a lot of ?????? basically it will boil down to one man, Jammal Lord. Lord struggles reading defenses and makes bad decisions under pressure. I don?t see this changing drastically this season. David Horne takes over at the I-back position. He showed signs of brilliance last year and will need to improve upon that his previous performances and be healthy for this game. Look for a lot of the passes in this game to be thrown at Matt Herian the huskers tight end. He must have a great game for the huskers to have a chance. If Richie Incognito stays away from the personal fouls look for him to be a strong force in the line.
Looking forward I see Lord throwing 2 picks and the I-back fumbling the ball over at least once.
-defense- the secondary is the ????? here. The huskers have talent upfront but need to wrap up and make tackles. The secondary is very young and there performance is up in the air as new defensive coordinator Bo Pelini takes over. I look to an average performance from the defense in this game.
-special teams- the star Dejaun Groce is gone and another big play maker needs to show up to give the huskers some fire. I don?t see anyone taking over where Groce left off in this first game against okie st. Look for Lannie Hopkins to attack the punter and probably block at least one.
The good news for the huskers is that the cowboys have not won in memorial stadium since the 1960s. Home field advantage does play a key role especially on the season openers.
