While you were right about the final score, I still think I was right about
 my prediction (all but the score).  You can call them rose colored glasses
 if you want, but everything I said came true, except the final score.
 
 We gave them EVERYTHING they got, our offense was CLEARLY better than theirs
 and their defense wasn't that much better than ours.
 
 Here's what I said, "Do I think ACC defenses are generally better than Big
 XII?  Yes, but a LOT closer than you think and certainly not enough to
 overcome the huge gap in offenses between the conferences."  Wouldn't you
 still agree, at least referring to these two teams like I was?  The ACC is
 now 2-5 in bowl games, the Big XII 3-1.  
 
 Their offense scored ZERO points today when they didn't get a gift from our
 offense (or special teams).  I'll say it again, Z E R O.  They scored 1 on
 defense, and once from the our 13 and the other from their 44.  All three
 after turnoves.  WE GAVE IT TO THEM.  If we play a clean game, we win by 30.
 Heck, I think if NP hadn't fumbled that punt, we'd have won by 21 because of
 the crazy momentum we had (which somehow became a ROUT by them, thanks
 Fouts).
 
 We outyarded them by 175%.  362 - 208.  Rose colored glasses my _____.  We
 spanked them hard, but did everything we could to let them hang around.  If
 you ask me, we played pretty bad today, but against a lesser team.
 
 Side note:  Watson's playcalling sucked today.  We only really threw on 3rd
 down when they knew it was coming AND WE STILL GOT IT.  Had we thrown on 1st
 and 2nd down occasionally,  we would have been in a lot better down/distance
 situations AND it would have opened up the run a lot more.

 The game is going as I have expected. Clemson's defense is better than
 our red colored glasses wanted to believe.
 
 But take heart Husker Nation, the Pelini brothers will make the necessary
 adjustments and the offense will get on track. This may be Castille's big
 game.
 
 The Huskers will prevail. The score will be close, 3 or 7 points.
 
 Go Big Red!
