I think the whole road game atmosphere the Huskers will see against USC will be a HUGE factor..and Nebraska will need to rely on their defense. Huske--ok I'm just gonna say "we" from now on. We can't let this game get high scoring if we want to compete with USC. I think our defense might be able to rattle who ever is starting for USC with such little game experience. If Nebraska is gonna win, look for it to be on the backs of the Blackshit defense.
For USC they will need to score early and not let Nebraska get into any passing rythm...and never look back from there.
As we are talking about betting at last time I checked USC was 12 point favorites. I'd jump all over that line if I were a gambling man.
Either way its gonna be a great early season battle.. Can't wait to see how the Huskers play over there.
(Sorry to bring my Husker favoritism into the Pac-10 message board, but I will be a student there this fall. Still love the Pac10 tho just as much and Arizona State.
