[Husker] Husker Football Predictions for Next Season

[Skylar Dodds]

Armando Murillo and Anthony Blue saw pretty significant playing time last
year, so inexperienced secondary I'd say no.  Sure we lost Bowman (Bowman
didn't play much) and Grixby, but we've still got a lot of guys coming back
there.

There is no way you can say that our defense won't be better next year, plus
our offense may be better next year too with added depth at IB, a more
mobile QB and a more experienced (and IMO better) o-line.

I'll give you linebacker, I think that's going to be our weakest spot, but
we'll put pressure on the QB and cover pretty well with our corners, I feel
pretty good about that.  I know what they're returning and I still think
we're favored in that game.

Texas Tech returns Graham Harrell, all five of their starting  
offensive lineman, and 2007 First-team All-American, Biletnikoff and  
Paul Warfield award-winning receiver Michael Crabtree.

They'll be playing against a Husker defense with....  not much  
experience in the secondary, and not much at linebacker. In Lubbock.

For the first time in years, Tech has a legitimate shot at the South.
