[Husker] Thoughts

[Aaron Wolfson]

Suh will be replaced by a committee of Crick, Steinkuhler, Moore, and
Ankrah, who according to the coaches has been working a lot with the No. 1
defense this season and probably could have played. The kid is a beast.
There are also some outstanding recruits coming in. So basically, we'll be
fine. Crick won't be Suh, but he'll still be just a junior, and we got a
taste of what he can do in the Baylor game. I'm sure the coaches will be
preparing him all offseason for the extra focus he's going to receive next
season.
