All this game is coming down to is who will win the pass stats.  Neb. has one of the best pass D and  Ok St. has one of the best pass Off.

Martinez is like that laceless wonder in Michigan.......that Pop Warner crap only works for so long and against lesser defenses.  While Ok St doesn't have a great defense, they will be playing this game as though it is a championship.  The crowd will be a huge boost.  The offensive balance that they have is much more than Neb.  I expect a very close and hard fought game.....so I got the dog here.  Neb better not put it all on the freshman qB running a read every play......they will need more than that to win these big conference games.  Bo will have a few wrinkles ready I'm sure.  Neb should win a close one, but the Cowboys are rolling and I'm not going to ignore that, especially getting 6!!!

 I see a very close contest here. A Cornhusker win by 2-3 points.

OKLAHOMA STATE   + 5.5

liking the pokes here. gundy finds a way to screw things up usually late in games, but i believe if he doesn't, they will win. if he does, they will lose, but still cover. the defense isn't the best, but can clamp down on occasion. the offense is very balanced and i gotta believe blackmon will have a field day.

Cowboys won't stop the run which will set up for the easy play actions passes from Martinez, he can sling it around a little bit.

This matchup is being billed as Blackmon vs. Amukamara.  In reality, it will be Blackmon vs. the Blackshirt secondary, as the Cowboys will try to get him all over the field to get him away from Amukamara.

The Huskers have as close to a shut-down secondary as it gets, ranked #1 in the nation in pass yards allowed.  The starting D has allowed 3 TD passes all year, 2 of which were 2-yard passes.

I don't expect Blackmon to be very effective at all, as the Husker secondary has been the only consistent part of the team throughout the season, and they are NFL caliber to the very last man.  But Oklahoma State may try to utilize their run game against the Huskers' suspect D-line.

Ok State won't be able to do defensively what Texas was able to do, and NU seems to be a completely different animal on the road so far, especially against weak defenses.

The Huskers right the ship this week.
NU - 38  Okla St - 20

nebraska put too much hype on the game with texas.  they played tight.  they could not run and they could not catch. 

texas had been down and our offense looked like shit after ucla and ok.  it still did not look great in the 2nd half, but we made the plays that we needed to win.   the score was a lot closer than the actual game itself.

ok st barely beat texas A&M at home and that was a bit of a fluke. 

do your own research.  i believe nebraska wins this game by 17+

peace

 

 

i think this is the most sound explination of how it should look on paper, and i think they execute better this week on the field...neb -6

Coach Gundy is a man and Poison 66 is a homer douche.

Nebraska -6 is a gift, just take it and say thank you. Good Luck.

Oh Yeah, Poison 66 I would love to see you on here after the game but somehow I doubt you'll make it, another internet badass...

Just heard a report that wind is swirling up to 30mph?  Can anyone confirm?

If so, I would have to go with the running team.
