Brett Hodges is a very good “backup” QB and could have easily been the starter, so I don’t expect them to lose much at the QB position. This is a good team we’re facing this week. A very good team. They could have won against BC last week had a few balls bounced the other way for WF. This is a team that held Louisville to 24 points in the Orange Bowl (Brohm at QB) and shut out Florida State 30 to nothing on the road last season. I understand it’s a new year, but this is a damn good team with a very good coach. They’ll be ready to play, especially at home and after a tough loss. They don’t want to go 0-2.
That said, I think they Huskers have a special team this year, as long as they are healthy. The offensive line looks like they could develop into one of the best in the country. They have a veteran QB who can take charge on the field. And, it looks like they finally have depth and speed on defense again. This game is no “gimme” but I think we’ll win IF we protect the rock. If we lose the turnover battle we may very well lose the game.
