Nebraska's D is good enough to give Michigan's work in progress OL fits.  Good thing Underwood is mobile and can throw fairly accurately on the run.  I hope they talked some sense into him this week because if he runs as much as he did last Saturday, and doesn't get down, he wont get through the season.  Head coach shaking his head and saying, "he's a football player,' ain't very smart from a coaching standpoint.  

Watched both the head coaches' Monday pressers.  Poggi is way more entertaining.

I have a feeling this will be a close contest that comes down to the kicking game.  How's Nebraska's field goal kicker?  Michigan's was fantastic last year.  Not so good so far this year.

Husker kicker is 4 for 4 so far.  (52, 22, 35, 24)

I completely disagree with this. This isn't RG3 who they claimed was 6'2" 223 lbs, Underwood is actually big and solid. The Nebraska starting linebackers are the same size as he is. He's vastly larger than everyone in their secondary. I don't want to see him lineup and run up the middle like Haynes, but the assumption he can't take physical contact doesn't add up here.

I don't care how big and solid a kid is.
If he runs enuff and takes enuff hits in the Big Ten, it will take a toll, especially on his throwing by November

How many big hits did he take from running this past week? Elusive people know how to minimize big hits. ask the Oklahoma Qb.. he demonstrated it very well against Michigan.

Others complain he's not running enough.Might have to do what tOSU did with CJ Stoud turn him lopse when absolutely necessary.Stroud hardly ran until the Georgia game they lost on the last second and he was quite good in that roll. But M is in transition and needs a few more pieces around BU to really step up. basically don't get him killed
