So a Thursday night to open the season? Should be a lot of eyeballs on this game. Be a nice test for NU. Minnesota is nothing special, but they are solid. Don’t beat yourself, and NU will have a chance to win this game. It would be a big shot of adrenaline and confidence if NU could find a way to win this game.
I think this sums it up. Don’t beat ourselves and we have a chance.
They are replacing all 5 of their offensive linemen, their starting RB (Ibrahim), their starting QB (Tanner Morgan) albeit presumed starter Kaliakmanis is tested. Bottom line is they are untested, especially on offense … good time to play them is game 1 in week 1.
If you go back and look at all the close games NU has lost in the past 15 years, it’s a bunch. A good portion of those losses, were self inflicted. Have to play good, fundamentally sound football, something that’s been missing for a very long while. NU probably never misses a bowl game if it didn’t beat itself.
They are, nor have ever been anything special. They are just a lumbering team that’s mostly well coached. They usually don’t beat themselves. That’s the deal with them, they just methodically beat you, ugly style. It certainly, isn’t with their talent. I know how they recruit. 44th this year, which is good for them. On paper, this should be a win, but, have to play well.

I agree. But I’ll add to comment about kaliamanis being tested. Yes but not sure with favorable results. 54% completion. 3 tds with 4 interceptions. Sacked once every 9 completions and 3 yards per carry.
We've been beating ourselves like we owe us money...
They haven't started fast typically under Fleck either.
I don't like playing a road conference game to start the season, but I'd definitely rather get them early.
If NU finds a way to win this one and then beat CU, every Husker fan on planet Earth is going to need a prescription for valium.

Their oline coach knows what he is doing
They have really good backs and will run till they are stopped
So you think replacing 4 starting linemen, including 3-three year starters, one 1st team All-B1G and two 3rd team All-B1G players that they’re going to be just as formidable as they were last season?
No one disputes that they are well coached, no one disputes that they’re a run centric program but you’d have to puffing on some mighty strong stuff not to think they’re going to have some kind of a drop off.
They cannot nor will not be as good as they were this past season at least initially.
