Re: Nebraska 2013

Pelini said today that Martinez is doubtful for Saturday and that freshman Tommy Armstrong would start if Martinez doesn't go. He also said that Ron Kellogg III would also play.

Armstrong is similar to Martinez in that he is very fast. I do not know about his passing ability though.

Re: Nebraska 2013

I don't know how many games i've watched where a player gets "blocked below the waist" and its not called.Thats why we have to be "squeeky" clean when we play Neb,we just can't expect to get by with anything down there.Thats the plight of the "underdog" it seems in sports.

That's because not all blocks below the waist are illegal...

Re: Nebraska 2013

To bad In Pelini's Rant he forgot to include the refs

Re: Nebraska 2013

Make sure you tell that to the refs so they dont call any phantom or questionable calls.

Re: Nebraska 2013

Ahhh isn't college FB nice. Listen, Jacks will be ready to play we have more to gain than lose. Hopefully we will not use Zenner up too early. I think more rotation will be needed in his place. Its ball control baby!!! Coach Stig will need to let loose this offense. This just in on ESPN South Dakota St upsets Nebraska.

Those Big 10 officials know who's buttering their bread. If in doubt, the call will go to Big Red. We saw that 3 years ago and it will be the same. Just part of the deal.

Re: Nebraska 2013

I believe they are going to be focused on #31, but if the O-line opens the holes ZZ has the jets to outrun many a tackler, and the bull attack mentality to run through tacklers. I was amazed watching him bull through for the 10-yd TD run vs SELA. When Austin gets the 67% passing going, Jacks may be able to go toe-to-toe with Neb.

Re: Nebraska 2013

There's no way we sneak up on Nebraska. Maybe the fans and the media but not the team. They remember the game we gave them in 2010 and know we're better now. As others have mentioned, this Nebraska team is nowhere near the team of 2010 and our Jacks are a better team. The Jacks are going to Lincoln to get the W period! Underdogs? Yep! Tough task? Yep! Huge opportunity? Oh, hell yeah! This Cornhusker defense is awful and our offense will be able to move the ball and score on them. It would be huge to get the first points on the board!

Special teams needs to be solid, no turnovers, and get pressure on Martinez! If we can do that, look out Husker Nation!

Let's go get this thing! Look forward to seeing a lot of blue in the Red temple!

GB! GB! GJ!

Yeah Zenner for a big early score, brown or Butler for a pick 6 and just imagine the wheels falling off in huskerland. the team and fans would not know what to do which when the wheels fall off at nebraska see the UCLA game, that is a good thing for us.

Re: Nebraska 2013

Coming into this season there was talk of Nebraska's offense being one of the most potent they've ever had. It has been tempered by several turnovers and lacked consistancy this year. It has the potential to put up TONS of points. Hopefully the defense can keep them at bay and the special teams will improve.

Martinez is in a walking boot and is questionable for the game (turf toe) which could be huge if he isn't 100% and able to run. Nebraska's offense hasn't been the problem. The defense is terrible. No blackshirts this year!

Re: Nebraska 2013

More Nebraska newspaper coverage about SDSU. Specifically, defensive backs coach Jay Christensen. Christensen has been coaching at SDSU since 2011, but his previous ties were at Morningside and in Nebraska. He played for the UNK Lopers as well as coached there after his playing days.

If we play well, this can only help close the deal on more recruits from Nebraska.

We are getting some very nice press and I've noticed a totally different atmosphere heading into this matchup as compared to 2010. Many friends and casual acquaintences alike have commented that if Bo loses this week, he will be done - now. Many feel this is very feasible based on ZZ and how we fared last time. I'm surprised how many know the names and some of the stats of Jackrabbit players. In 2010 the attitude was why did they schedule the Jacks and could they buy out the contract to get a real game. Most fans know this will be a real game and that the Hukers better be focused this time.

Lets get this game on already,can't wait to see this prediction go down in flames.
