Wake must be as tough of a place to play as Auburn.  Or at least that is what we're going to hear.

Of course it's as tough.  30,000 and 2/3 nubb vs. 87,000  It makes perfect sense.

Keller looks like dogsh1t.  Reggie Walker and our 3/4 blitz packages will make a mockery of him.

I can't see the game, but it seems that Keller finally put together a nice drive in the hurry-up.

He had a nice pass on the TD no doubt about it.

Wake is not getting any pressure on Keller.  They aren't blitzing at all, and on that last drive they made it pretty easy on him.  I can't tell if Wake's pass rush sucks or if NU's O-Line is good.

Nebraska looks great.  They obviously are going to come out in the second half and put this game away.  Lucky and Castille will be running it all over the place.

You watch.

They look better now...just started slow...we'll pull this one out, but if we start slow like this against USC next week, we'll be in serious trouble.

typical drive at the end of the half IMO.  Nebraska's running game has not been there.  Wake seems determined to make Keller beat them.

I hope you guys get it done.  Big 12 needs this wins vs. power conferences...we nearly pulled off a biggie last week that would have gone a long way in perception though it being close I'm sure changed a lot of minds.

Nubb's DL is average.  I thought that watching them last week vs. Nevada.  They are going to miss Carriker and Moore big time this year.

I like this Moore kid.

If Nebraska keeps dangling this one out there, Wake might just snatch it up.

Keller is having a tough time against that stingy secondary.  Not sure if he's used to dbacks playing within 5 yds of the receiver/end.  Maybe he's used to the faster receivers as ASU

They're trying to give this one away.

I was hoping they'd pull it out. I'll lose 9 pts on my pick'em if they don't.  :'(

Bottom line: Skinner plays in this game and Wake wins.

The team with ketchup like uniforms were not that impressive.  They struggled against a team with a back up qb.  It wasn't Nubby beating Wake, more like Wake beating Wake.

2-0, enough said....they played about as badly as they're capable of and still pulled it out against a quality opponent on the road.

Skinner plays and this one isn't even close.  Wake blew more than one red zone opportunity.  Nebraska looked absolutely pathetic.

few things.

1st.  there is no drop off between the wf qb's.  hodges has alot of experience nad won more than a few games for them.

2nd.  Our defense played pretty damn good.  Not sure what game you guys are watching but I watched them win this game for nebraska when the NU offense tried to give it away.  We were playing at wake forest, the home of the reigning acc champs, at 11am and our offense didn't do crap all game, plus had 3 turnovers.  and all our defense did in that situation was allow 17 points.  I will take that effort any day of the week.

The last play that grixby had the interferance was a non catachable ball.  Plus, the non call was a nice way to say sorry for the way they reversed the interception on the previous play even though there was not one iota of video that showed the ball hitting the ground.

keller is showing the problems he showed at asu which is that he tries to do to much.  Ther were times at asu where his team was getting beaten, or the game was close where he tried to do to much and got burned.  His last turnover that they called an interception even though it clearly wasn't was evidance of that.

the biggest problem on this team is the wr position and dropping passes.  I counted 4 3rd down conversions lost because of easily caught balls that were dropped.

either way, I knew it was gonna be a close game, just not an ugly one.  2-0 and headed back home
