[Husker] NU/OU Line

[Scott R Lawson]

Well I hope the offense can get cranked up but I am pretty sure Green is starting and if I were in fact a betting man I would say this will be as tough a game as he will see as a Husker (and that includes the next 3 seasons)

And again, I think the rest of the games this year are winnable by the
Huskers.  It comes down to whether we can muster enough offensive
oomph to score more than our defense allows.  KState showed that
getting OU's QB out of the pocket and moving his feet can slow them
down.  If KState can do that, we should be able to do it better.

The OU game rides on the offense this year.  I frankly can't figure
out what the problem is, but I'm leaning towards the experience
factor.  We could move the ball last year. Ganz had that ability to
move in the pocket, find an open receiver.  Our receivers had the
ability to find seams in the defense.  Other teams are having success
with similar experience (look at Iowa), so what does that mean for our
situation.  Haven't a clue.  But I'm hoping for the best on Saturday
night.

I had this as a loss before the season began, moved it to a win after
Bradford went down, moved it to a lock when Bradford went down the
second time, and its now a toss up based on our performances in the
last three weeks.
