Well, I watched the game tonite, the first time I had sat and watched Nebraska play this season. I was semi-impressed. I realize that calling this a great win is like calling Texas' win against Rice "great." (Just kidding, Dude).

I did like the fact that Lord threw some passes and didn't look too bad as a passer. We all know his strength is on the ground, but he showed that he could pass the ball a few times if he needed to.

The defense is what I liked the best. Not counting the fourth quarter, I think that Southern Miss had 150 total yards. I dont count the fourth because their reserves were in and the game was already over. The Southern Miss QB they brought in was impressive but I dont think he would have faired as well had he started the game.

Overall, I think Nebraska is ranked right where they should be. They are a team that should be between 7 and 15 in the polls. They aren't the greatest in the NCAA but they are better than most. Until they lose, I DO think they should be ahead of teams like Michigan and Texas. I think that Nebraska could easily be undefeated going into the Texas game. That will be their first test and I honestly think Texas will win, although it will be a close one.

In case you can't tell, I am a Nebraska fan (stuck in Texas - and Austin of all places). I love everything about the state of Texas except UT and A&M. I guess that is what happens when everyone in your extended family was either born or still lives in Nebraska.

Go BIG XII!!!!!!
