Orange Sky at morning, Huskers take warning…
Red tail?
i agree with Pruman under the following conditions -I have waited until today to finally give my prediction on tonight's game and after further review I concur that...............
Illini 27
nebby 21
Bryant and Franklin have big games with 6 + catches each and Valentine scores winning TD on a 20 + yard run featuring n8umerous cutbacks and a big block by the TE Arkin to clear the way to the victory.........
Illini improves to 4-0 seasonal record and a B$G 1-0 record..........I really really really do......................

Yes sir getting carts out for the old guys this morningRed tail?
I would expect and hope that there are parts of the offensive we've yet to see. A few things that isn't on film from this year, a few surprises or changes. Beloved by 10Lunney should take advantage of our garbage O-Line a bit more and run some RB screens. I dont remember if we've run any through our first three games. Perhaps that is one play we've kept for B1G play.
It’s a lot more fun to have orange colored glasses this time of year when we are 3-0 them going in expecting us to lose- so I love the optimismNot necessarily responding directly to you with this but more a bigger point. For our fanbase it's still very likely that we lose this game and we are not immune from doing a lot of the same things we saw from the Kansas fanbase and melting down after a loss, even one we were the underdog in. If you look at the predictions in this thread almost all of them have us winning so we are setting ourselves up for disappointment if we lose what is going to a be a VERY tough matchup in an EXTREMELY hostile and fired up environment.
With that being said let's go out, beat the pants off them, and send all those rabid Husker fans home wondering when they really will be "back"
Like you, I’d like to see us play to win, but so far that doesn’t seem to be Bret’s style. I’m afraid we’ll again see repeated fruitless runs into a wall for three quarters, trying to wear them down for more creative play calling in the fourth quarter. Hope I’m wrong though.We have nothing to lose- go all out and get a win!
If we can actually wear them down that way I’m all for it. Win pretty or win ugly I don’t think many of us here should care. Just win baby.Like you, I’d like to see us play to win, but so far that doesn’t seem to be Bret’s style.
