Husker Fridays: Week 5
So, let me start this appreciation of all things college football with a hearty laugh about USC's loss to Oregon State last night.
MUWAHAHAHAHAHA!
I am not a fan of Pete Carroll, and this should humble him a bit (but it probably won't).
Anyway, tomorrow Nebraska (3-0) and Virginia Tech (3-1) will face off in Lincoln. This should be the first real test about just how good Nebraska might be this season. Not that our previous opponents haven't put on some pressure this season, but this is definitely the first game that seems to have much weight to it. It'll be a good primer for our conference opener against Mizzou next weekend.
Tomorrow's game is the first in a two-year series with VT. They're not a team the Huskers play normally. In fact, the only other time the two teams have met was in the 1996 Orange Bowl, and the Huskers (who were still coached by Tom Osborne at the time) won 41-21.
A win tomorrow could possibly put Nebraska into the rankings (they're hovering just outside of the Top 25 in both the USA Today/Coaches poll and the AP poll. But ultimately, I just hope we play well, make our tackles, stay concentrated, and keep the turnovers to a minimum.
And no matter what, it's great to be back in the news for the program being in a good place, rather than bad.
