Black Friday Weather

[scarletred]

Key for the game for NU is to stay balanced like they did against the Badgers and without question win the turnover battle…

Defensively tackle soundly and force them into 3rd and long..

Evening is projected 15 degrees F, light wind out of the south. Wind will not be a factor if this prediction holds.

I saw that too. Wind dies at sundown. Probably low 20’s for most of the game. With gloves and sideline heaters, weather should not limit the passing game very much. Maybe an extra drop or two.

It was a cold game when Trey Palmer lit them up.

@SWIowahawks is the only respectful Iowa fan that comments on this board.

No he's not. He is a condescending jerk, who talks shit on us nonstop.

Athletic is saying that the winner of NU/Iowa goes to Tampa. Loser possibly to Music City.

I also took o7.5 wins - losing to UCLA was the nail in the coffin to achieve 7 wins.

I'm hard pressed to find even 1 win when we needed a game ending drive. 2019 Northwestern was already tied. Northwestern Hail Mary in 2014 & Iowa in 2014 I guess is 10 years.

I can think of a couple under Riley. Morgan had a late TD against Purdue and of course Reily's catch against MSU.

Can't really think of any since then .

he is a typical iowa fan.

@SWIowahawks remember two years ago when you called me a "troll" for telling you McNamara was Petras 2.0?

updated stats 2 seasons after that post:

Petras - 56.7%, 24 TD/19 INT, 6.3 Yards/Attempt
McNamera - 57.3%, 10 TD/8 INT, 5.8 Yards/Attempt

 

[king_kong_]

those are regular season props, unfortunately

this is the 8th straight year our under will cash

Examples? I say way more negative things about Iowa on these boards than Nebraska.

two posts above. mcnemara is petras. petras is mcnamera.

labeling someone a "troll" for posting "water is wet" is something condescending jerks do, ya condescending jerk!

also - every iowa fan is a Nebraska fan. you guys watch more of our games than any other fanbase. not even close.

Not gonna work, bud.

Not gonna work, bud.

this exchange should be in a museum somewhere:

why does everyone think your new QB, who posted identical stats to your old QB last year on a much better team, will be good?

Petras 2022: 55.9%, 1:1 TD:INT ratio, 6.2 Air Yards/Attempt
McNamara 2022: 60%, 1:1 TD:INT ratio, 5.9 Air Yards/Attempt

please explain what I'm missing

You know the context you’re leaving out so I’m not even gonna rebuttal you on your hilarious attempt.

 

[SWIowahawks]

I have no idea why the Hawks are favored.

You defense has played well this year and that is when we have trouble running the ball. You have a great defensive line, and it will depend on if K Johnson gets any holes to run through. Now, I am not sure how good your linebackers are at tackling, but when he has a hole a lot of LB are bouncing off him. This is why he gets so many extra yards.

The Hawks have to be able to run the ball, to keep your offense off the field. Our defense plays better not being out there all day.

I am hoping for a good game but could be a long day for the Hawks if we cannot run the ball. Nice win against the Badgers and Creighton as well.

Hope for no injuries.

You don’t know why Iowa is favored at home?At night? They’ve been favored in every game except one this year.

Now, I do share your concern about the actual game. I stated above and the more I think about it, the more it worries me. But Nebraska’s big WR’s will have a hay day with 50/50 balls.

 

[SWIowahawks]

You called it - will be anxious to see where it lands later this week.

It’s moved to Iowa -5.5 and the O/U moved really quick to 39.5.

is cade petras cleared from his brain fog yet?

 

[headcard]

Not sure why Iowa fans are worried about our WR's, we haven't won many 50/50 balls all year, we certainly aren't going to be able to move up and down the field using them.

 

[HuskerAlum92]

It’s moved to Iowa -5.5 and the O/U moved really quick to 39.5.

So, exactly where it opened.

Because they have nothing but Hartzog and Gifford clones in the secondary.

most are still learning what "WR" stands for.

Those 50/50 balls get a lot of PIs, but since it’s Nebraska, I don’t expect any defensive PIs or offensive holding to be called against Iowa, it’s the bigten way.

They still have wingbacks
