@gros-louis that's fair, but there's plenty of smoke there. The one thing everyone knew they needed to improve on, and what was supposed to be better to elevate them to contending at the top of the conference so far isn't there. I hope they stay ranked; that's the game I'm coming back for!

for IU it's the classic trap game, for NB it's their Super Bowl. Will I ever get used to hearing stuff like that?

Yeah, it's a cool thing to hear, less nice to deal with. Heh.

Nebraska fans trying to control the intangibles and limit exposure to bulletin board material.

@gros-louis USC has very little defense. That’s why. It’s also a home game.

I get both of those things.  Michigan also has very little offense, but their defense is good enough to beat some teams.  I mean, they've lost twice already, so they're done with the CFP, but USC is still very much capable of making the CFP as it stands currently.

I guess I'll say it like this.  Michigan is done, but people are talking about USC in the same vain as Michigan, and that doesn't make any sense to me.

2. Feels like this is the first rematch and revenge game by an opponent in the Cig era by a team that was thoroughly embarrassed in the first matchup.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. I saw some forum of the Nebraska camp had a comment they were sure Rhule has not forgotten the beat down, lol.

This is the big game, to me. Rhule and staff will be ready, and their team will be ready. Won't be easy to match their intensity.

If we get thru this one we will be looking really good. Have to put it on the field!

this aged VERY well.

Not for me, I predicted a solid win in the prediction thread, lol.

I was nervous though.

@single_king 

And I’m going to go back to predicting quadruple overtime games for the reverse jinx…

I haven’t gotten one of those score predictions on the numbers since 2006…, so in the future I’ll take one for the team…

🙉🙈😵‍💫🙄😞😎

🏈

I might even start down grading players too 😉🥸
