Nebraska vs Oklahoma Pre-Game

Nebraska has season determining game this week against a very talented #4Oklahoma team. The first disadvantage NU faces is that the rivalry game is in Norman. Oklahoma is a very talented team especially offensively, but they are beatable. The defense isn't that impressive, i think the Kansas game illustrates that. Kansas was able to stay in the game until the end of the second half, they were able to put up over 30 points and a ton of yards against OU's "D". With a few defensive problems and the loss of Ryan Reynolds i feel the OU is vulnerable to the Skers offense. I feel this game will be a higher scoring game that is going to be decided by who's defense can find away to stop each others offense. NU needs to continue with no turnovers and cut down on letting the opposing team have those big plays. Go Big Red lets get the upset and take over the Big 12 North or at least keep our chances alive!

Nebraska wins 35-31

let me know what your predictions are?

Sorry James, this one is a Nebraska Cornhuskers loss, Oklahoma has too much firepower on offense for the Huskers to handle. Oklahoma's defense may not be great, but Nebraska's defense is still worse. I'm still confident that the Huskers can win out after the Oklahoma game and get to 8 and 4 on the year, which would be an improvement from last season.

OU 42 NU 27

Taking the Kansas game into consideration, I am inclined to put a smaller spread on the score... but I think your 35-31 prediction might be some wishful thinking. I for one hope that your prediction proves true and the 'Skers can get back on their feet... possibly start making some real progress with the program. Sorry good buddy but I'm gonna say 42-14 OU

Hopefully you have it right.

As much of a die hard Husker fan as I am, and as hard as I will be cheering for them this Saturday night, I don't think it is in nebraska's cards to win this game. I love what Bo Pa is doing with the team and it is very encouraging for the future, but i dont think they can pull this upset off. My prediction:

Nebraska 24 Oklahoma 41
