I like what Banker is doing so far (strangely enough).
Not saying he is going to fix the secondary by game time.
Huskers 31
Miami 28
win in OT with a Drew Brown FG

Is Miami capable of completing a forward pass? If so, they'll probably win vs. this Husker defense.
It's only two games in but Nebraska is 119th in pass defense. 82nd in pass efficiency defense and 88th in total defense.
Miami- 38
Nebraska- 28
Nebraska needs to play keep away and focus on running the ball to have a chance.

Throw out last night's game. It means nothing to beat a team like that. Our defense is porous against the pass to say the least.

Miami sees that our defensive scheme with only one safety over top plays heavily in opposing passing teams favor and exploits it. They get nothing on the ground, but light us up with the fade like byu and even S Ala. did a few times last night. However, TA and our receivers continue to play well and keep us in it. Special teams makes a big play to win it.
NU - 42
THE POO - 38

What are you exactly predicting? Return yards? You've never said it was score. People just assume that.
I think Nebraska scores 24, but I think you're correct-ish with Miami's total. 49-24, Thugs win.
This is the husker football board... you're going to have to stop being reasonable.
Looking forward to this game in so many ways.
Miami fans think it'll be too hot for Nebraska to handle. Yea right, like it's not hot in Nebraska in the summer. Advantage neither team.
Nebraska's defense should handle the Miami offensive line and win that battle throughout the game. Got to stop the long ball though. Got to stop the running attack also. Miami has a couple really good backs to look out for. Advantage Nebraska.
Offensively is where it gets interesting. Nebraska looks like a well balanced attack. Last year Nebraska only used about 25% of its game plan against Miami. Same coaching staff at Miami should make you feel very confident going into this game.
If all else ends up being even, I believe the tipping point might come from third down percentages. Miami is absolutely horrendous on third down. They were 3 for 13 against FAU last week. You might think that's only one game, but all last year and the two they played this year, it's man, women and child look away.
Stadium had a new look. It's half way through a huge remodel to lure the super bowl back. Seating is closer to the field to make it louder for the opposing teams. Couple problems with this is Miami usually only has about 30,000 fans except with big games like Saturdays. I would not be surprised to see almost as much red as orange in the stands

I think Miami wins based on our poor secondary play (aside from Gerry). Kaaya should have it pretty easy and I'm assuming Miami has good speed at receiver like they always do. We will have to get better pressure than we've had to equalize things a bit. I think NU will continue to do well against the run.
Be nice to have all of our starting LBers play togeather next week, something we haven't seen yet.
Hoping someone else replaces Davies at cornerback and I wish the staff would play 2 safeties to help out or corners.
