He backs this premise up with a thorough evaluation of the situation:
9. Penn State (7-6) [last years record, not a prediction for 2011]
Up next: Indiana State, 11 a.m., BTN
Difficult to get excited about a team led by a QB (Rob Bolden) who spent six months trying to transfer. He’s not the only worry. The defense makes few big plays and the O-line is a concern.
The defense makes few big plays? Per season or per game? Granted we don't make many of the Pete Giftopoulos type game changing plays every game, but I think our defense holds its own most seasons.
Not a lot of respect from a team just joining the league.
I thought I was pretty easy on the Huskers in my preseason report. Maybe we will have a Rich Gardner type game-changing defensive play to answer this slap in the face.
But I guess I'm not one to talk since Dick has accused me of spewing Big Ten venom.
And I will grant him the other observations. Quarterback position could be a problem, and our offensive line has been rebuilding since 2002.
BRT has the BEST Husker coverage. With a name like Barfknecht, it has to be good!
