We are defiantly a top 20 team. with wisconson we will see if we are top 10.
this seemed like a old midseason missou game where we had to grind it out.

I think we are top 10 if we get all these fricken ankle injuries healed up. Good grief
Well the epidemiologist in me thinks somebody needs to look at how they're taping or who is taping and if there is any correlation with who tapes the ankle and injuries.

They're staying with (and currently leading) Ohio State. Wiscy is going to whoop us if we play them like we played Indiana.

Offensively I agree but if we can stop the run game like we did today it will be an extremely low scoring game.

No disrespect to Indiana, but Wisconsin's run game is more power rather than QB runs correct? Don't forget Oregon ran right through us, and I would have to say Wisconsin's OL looks way better than Oregon's did. Our linebackers are going to need to play out of their minds, imho.

Georgia State wasn't impressed with Wisconsin

Oregon was also a month ago. This defense is getting better if you haven't been paying attention.

I feel comfortable selling out to stop the run and letting our secondary make plays to be honest.

Our defense has been getting the turnovers but from what I've seen they've been out of position on alot of those and opposing quarterbacks have made some pretty bad throws right to them. And I'm not saying it's a guaranteed loss, but Wisconsin has (at least to me) played faster and more physical this season. Also, our luck with the refs have to change because Wisconsin holds on pretty much every play, allowing for the huge plays.

Nebraska’s DBS have to be licking their chops watching these flutter balls the Wisconsin qb throws constantly. ..

Guess overtime versus the #2 team in the nation isn't impressive enough for Husker fans. So the question is, what exactly does it take to impress you?

Reading comprehension isn't your strong suit I see. Now reread my quote and get back with me.

disclaimer: I not in the gloom and doom or rose colored glasses crowd

just giving my own opinion, which is not infallible, but comes from my own perspective looking at the big picture.

All these ankle injuries on the offensive side of the ball are just weird. Just having Armstrong and our two starting tackles healthy would have changed that game completely.

Back to the OP for a second, thought that Foster and Cotton did a very nice job on our first drive. Was hoping to see us go to them more.

Purdue may be a better road opponent, than home team.

Hazell's only B1G home win ever in 4 seasons was last year's 55-45 Boilermaker instant classic under this coach.

Mike Riley has Huskers playing well in 2016.
