[Husker] VA Tech

Mr. Meyer in Murfressboro, let's hope you're right! :)

The game will be very telling, won't it?  I'm very excited for
Saturday's game, but then again I was nearly as excited until about one
quarter into the Mizzou game last year.  I honestly believe we have a
better team on the field this year so am eager to see how they perform
on Saturday.

GBR...

I don't know about anyone else, but this game kind of feels like the
1997 game on the road at Washington.  Huskers ranked about #7 and
Washington #2.  Huskers were kind of suspect after a couple of games
against lower tier opponents, giving up a lot of yards against Central
Florida and winning 38-24 the week before.  I remember that the team
came of age under Scott Frost that day, winning 27-14 (wasn't really
even that close on the field, just on the scoreboard).  With a couple of
exceptions that team was really never challenged the remainder of the
year (Missouri and Colorado were the only close games after that, much
too close for my comfort!).  I get the feeling that we're on the brink
of something that will set this program up to challenge nationally for
several years to come.  No more feeling good just to be ranked in the
top 25 but disappointed if we're not top 10 caliber or better.  Just my
gut feeling.
