Anybody Watching CU vs. TCU?

That's a good summary. They'll score; can we avoid getting deflated in front of a hostile crowd, and keep up sufficiently to make it a game/have a chance to win?
I don't see Nebraska being able to generate enough offense to win a scoring match.
If we're in a track meet, it will not be a good day.
Is Nebraska able to have some big gain running plays if needed?
Nebraska is going to need drives, and obviously few penalties and fewer or no turnovers
Colorado gave up 541 yrds, 262 rushing yrds. I like our chances.
Can Nebraska's offense take advantage of this?
It's an encouraging stat, does Nebraska have the ability to rush for 450 yards?
Defense and Special Teams...I don't think we can rely on the offense right now.
How much improvement will we see in the offense in a week?
Yes they will, not all the time, Scum will get points, how many is anyones guess. Like I have posted, Sanders looked like he picked apart a terrible TCU secondary so we wait. Minnesota has a good O line not sure about scum on that score either. Sims cant throw picks like he threw in the 4th qtr with the game on the line and we cant fumble the ball either.
Take away Grant's fumble with minutes to play and Husker fans would be gushing today about how prepared the team was and how the Huskers dominated the second half of an ugly game on the road.
Two away games in jam-packed hostile environments to start the season is damn tough. But I expect we'll see a good game. I think our secondary is significantly better than TCU's. But Sanders looked like a Heisman-level QB on Saturday.

We seriously need to keep it about 90/10 run/pass ratio against CU. Control/eat clock, stay away from passing at Hunter. Only we are going to stop ourselves from scoring EVERY drive. There was zero defense on display by CU or TCU. Their offense is obviously another story, but we just need a few key stops and we'll be right there.
TCU didn’t have any game film or what to expect from Colorado with their first game, hence their demise. We have plenty of film on them now. Even better news is that Colorado has no game film on our offense because we didn’t have any offense on Thursday. Winner, winner, chicken dinner!
The Blackshirts gave up 13 points in a tough conference game on the road. Minnesota had 196 yards passing on 44 attempts, and 55 yards rushing. What kind of defensive numbers from the Huskers do you need to see before they are "world beaters?"
I'm not saying they are the '95 Blackshirts by any stretch, but you are very quick to discount Husker accomplishments while heaping praise on everything Colorado.
It almost seems as though there are a few "fans" here that would rather see the Huskers fail than succeed so they can brag about how right they were about the poor head coach selection. It's bizarre how negative some fans are after Game1 of the Rhule Era.
I get it. Consensus = Big 12 plays soft D and in that game, any hint of a defense might have chg'd everything.
I did not record it. I did not watch closely as it was on. And I left the house to run errands, midway through.
But it seemed like it was a high-speed bunch on both sides. Very high speed. That was my large takeaway.
I didn't think I was watching a bunch wussies play defense.
Maybe a super hard-hitting BIG D will be the difference.
