A blog from HuskerFaithful's Mom
We got the win!!! With the weather conditions, it was hard for both teams to get anything done. There were more penalties than I remember in any other game. For a time, I wasn't sure that the Huskers could get it together on offense. Zac Lee didn't seem to be with it, some passes not on target, and the errant long snaps, etc. Again, the weather played a huge role in what happened, dropped passes, fumbled punt returns, etc. The defense was on top of their game and I'm thinking, maybe now it's time to hand out those blackshirts. In Ryan's blog before the game, he said the three keys were (1) run, run, run the ball--more touches for Rex Burkhead and Roy Helu, (2) pressure Blaine Gabbert and (3) win the special teams battle. I love to see Rex Burkhead run with the ball but we didn't see enough of him. Gabbert was pressured and it seemed like Suh was always in his face and some of the other defensive players, as well. Our defense is awesome. Our special teams struggled, but hey, the score at the end is what counts. Bring on Texas Tech and Kansas and Oklahoma. Jon will be back soon.
