I know ESPN is hyping this Neb-OSU game as a really big matchup but I just don’t see it being close by halftime. The Buckeyes have so much more talent than Nebraska can handle. 45-10 Ohio State wins this.
wait...people actually thought this was going to be close? Lol. Nebraska is nowhere near ready to challenge Ohio State. They gave up 34 to Colorado and 38 to Illinois. How many points you think they'll give up to Ohio State? At least 45.

Someone give Fowler some clean undies. JC

Secondary is very strong for OSU.

Don't understand how Martinez's mechanics have changed to this year where he is airmailing balls.

Tackling is overrated

I wonder if Mack Brown is second-guessing himself for going for 2 at the end.
I think a bad spot on a UNC 1st-down run at midfield, about midway in the 4th quarter, was a critical turning point.  Looked like it should have been spotted close to the line to gain, for 2nd and inches.  Instead, it was 2nd and a long 1 that UNC came about a foot short of converting on 4th down.  Clemson took that possession and scored the go-ahead, ultimately game-winning TD.
I hated Brown’s decision.  With 1:14 left you aren’t guaranteeing yourself a win with the two but you are all but guaranteeing yourself a loss if you miss.  The risk doesn’t match the reward.  With 14 seconds left, sure do it.  But with that much a time a FG beats you either way.  Just kick the XP.  Reminded me of Gundy’s decision to go for 2 against Oklahoma last year.  Time on the clock matters.

If Nebraska takes a knee from here on out at least the clock won't stop.

We made 18 dozen ravioli. They're tasty.

What do you think Nebraska needs to do? Is it mostly recruiting; or coaching staff?

I know the defense is weak. But this offense which is great seems not to care about ball security. Nebraska could in some ways be competitive; if they could hold onto the ball

Without knowing the number, anyone with the under on UCLA-Arizona has to be feeling good.
