This is always a must win for Nebraska and especially the Husker Nation its a pride thing!! I've seen the Buffs play a few games this season and I think the Skers should have no problem beating em. Although I've seen Colorado play tough with some good teams like Texas for example. I know that game wasn't close or anything but CU plays tough and dont quit especially in the running game and on defense, so we don't to underestimate the Buffs and definitely not let up on them at all! The Skers need to lose some of the small mistakes and play controlled turnover free game.
My prediction is NU 35 CU 14
Let me know what your predictions and thoughts about the game are!?

Nebraska vs Kansas State
The K State game was an expected win and a big win is what the Skers got. I think that the Huskers gave K State nearly every touchdown they got. The Huskers weren't perfect and have some things to work on said Bo Pelini after the game and i agree. Freeman was going to be a threat i predicted, but Nebraska's "D" line put great pressure on him and really put him on the move. That was nice to see. I thought Ganz had a pretty good game with the exception of the interception for 6 at the beginning of the game but i thought he came back nicely.
Offense
Ganz went 16 for 25 with 1 interception totalling 270 yards and 2 TD's through the air. More impressively Ganz led the rushing attack with 11 rushes for a net total of 95 yards with 2 TD's. Roy Helu Jr. was the leading rusher besides Ganz with 13 touches for 80 yards and 2 TD's. Nate Swift led the receiving attack with 4 catches for 98 yards.
Defense
Colton Koehler led the "D" with 8 total tackels. Asante, Suh, Wortman, and Lawrence all had 5 total tackles, with Suh having one sack resulting in a 15 yard loss.

Nebraska vs Kansas
This was a great win for Nebraska. Kansas isnt having quit the season they were last year but they are still playing tough and this was a crucial game to shape the 2008 season for the Huskers. I was unable to watch the game but did listen to it on the Internet until it quit working which was the end of the first half. But, from what i listen to we were playing well. The skers were tied the game late in the first half and then the Defense got the ball back and it looked like the Skers were going to march down the field and score again but unfortunately Ganz through an interception to end the half 14 to 14. I think the most exciting thing about this game other than to regain our dignity from last year is that the Huskers are bowl eligible again and winning out the rest of the season seems very likely! I would also like to comment on Suh's play against KU....Unbelievable. He pressured the QB all day, he through down blocks in the fullback position, had an interception, and he caught a pass for a touchdown.
Offense
Ganz out played Todd Reesing and had a decent game going 28 for 37 passing and throwing one interception and totalling 324 yards and 3 TD's. Lucky actually had a 4 yard TD pass as well. Nate Swift led receiving with 111 yards on 7 catches and 1 TD. Roy Helu Jr. and Todd Peterson also had decent days receiving both racking up over 60 yards a piece. Roy Helu Jr. led the rushing attack if 115 net yards on 16 rushes with 2 TD's. Helu played exceptional once again and i think Bo has found his new running back.
Defense
Suh, Ndamukong led the defensive attack with 12 total tackles and 2.5 sacks resulting in 18 yards. Allen, Pierre and O'Hanlon, Matt had decent days on the defensive side of the ball both totalling 7 tackles with Allen having a sack that resulted in a 15 yard loss

Nebraska vs Kansas pre game
I don't think that there is much to say about this game Nebraska needs to poll off the upset! The OU is long gone and it was going to be a shot in the dark that we were going to be able to play with those guys and we all know we surely didn't do that! But like I said that one is long gone NU needs this game badly!

Nebraska vs Oklahoma final
Wow I think is only word to describe this game! For those of you who didn't get to watch this game or have to watch this game the score score really doesn't illustrate the breakdown of the majority of this game. Oklahoma scored 35 points in the fist quarter. Oklahoma had a massive return in on the opening kick off and scored on the drive. Nebraska through a pick 6 on their first offensive drive. Nebraska attempts to dig themselves out of the huge hole they just dug when Ganz throws a excellently executed pass play which was conveniently fumbled after the catch. Oklahoma takes advantage of the second turnover and scores another touchdown. Oklahoma wouldn't even come close to stopping there they racked up a whopping a 35 points in the 1st quarter! Nebraska finally scored in the 2nd and actually scored as much as OU in the second with 14 points a piece. I am not sure exactly why but Nebraska had everything go wrong that they could have gone wrong in this game especially in the first 5 minutes. I dint if it was the game hype or what, but Nebraska looked like a high school team playing a top 5 team! The Skers ended up putting together some good drives and probably put together pretty good red zone stats to tell the truth, but they had no chance in stopping the high powered OU offense!
On offense Joe Ganz was 26-14 and 2 interceptions totalling 206 yards and 1 touchdown. Nate Swift didn't have the game he usually has with only 3 catches with 83 yards and 1 touchdown. Helu lead the rushing attack with 16 rushes for 165 yards and 1 touchdown.
On defense Lary Assante lead with 8 solo tackle and totalling 13 altogether.
