Gophers at Nebraska

[43DC]

Who wins this game? And NO: "both" is not a choice

I'm interested to see what people think.

Gophers are much better on D, they can run the ball but they are missing a ton of play makers.

Nebraska has a solid O and is playing at home but last week.... OUCH.

 

[EpenesaEpenesa]

Minnesota is better. 27-13 Gophers

 

[thecarls]

Nebraska rolls them. 38-14

 

[smittyhawk]

Minnesota is better. 27-13 Gophers

Hoping for Minnesota, but I think Nebraska wins.

 

[EpenesaEpenesa]

Nebraska rolls them. 38-14

Based on what?

 

[SDHawkDoc]

One of only 2 games I'd like to see minny get a win.
But I think the 'holers finally get a W. Unfortunately.

 

[HawkAlum2002]

Picking Nebraska, but rooting for the Gophers.

 

[thecarls]

Based on what?

Based on I think they have the offensive talent to get the job done. Besides pissing down their leg they actually looked like a pretty solid team Saturday.

I hope I’m wrong, but I think Nebraska rolls.

 

[EpenesaEpenesa]

Minnesota has a good Dline that will control the LOS. Minnesota will run the football all day long against that D.

 

[BlackNGoldBleeder]

Toss up.

We'll see if choking at NW rallies the Huskers or completely deflates them.

My gut is telling me Nebraska wins.

 

[WorldSeriesChamps2015]

They both lose because they suck ballz.

 

[Hawktimism]

Both...

I expect a close game. Minnesota has the better defense though so I'd probably lean that way... but yeah, yuck...

 

[iahawkeyes17]

Games like this is one of the few times I miss and wish there could still be ties. Looking at plus side of either team winning would be if Nebraska wins that puts another hole in Minnesota's boat in their quest to get to 6 wins and a bowl game. If Minnesota wins makes it 11 losses in a row and still win less this season for Frosty and Nebraska and on top of it almost one full calendar year since they won a game.

That being said if had to pick I'll go with the home team and think Huskers finally win and then afterwards we can hear talk from their fan base how they think they can win out and go 6-6 and still make a bowl game.

Gophers, no wait Nebraska, second thought who gives a sh!t.

 

[Quintana]

this is like deciding between diarrhea and the herpes

 

[HawkinK.C.1]

The blacksquirts crap down their leg again. In the battle of the league's most over rated coaches, Fleck > Frost.

 

[EpenesaEpenesa]

this is like deciding between diarrhea and the herpes

Agreed. I’ll go with diarrhea though

 

[Johnsoda123]

this is like deciding between diarrhea and the herpes

hmmm...diarrhea...whichever team that is

 

[Frosty7130]

Honestly I think the fuskers are mentally broken at this point. They've lost a plethora of tight games in ridiculous fashions.

 

[ghostOfHomer777]

Based on what?

I don't think that the Gophers have an answer for Spielman and Morgan.

Also, the Gopher O is limited ... so for as bad as the Husker D is ... I think that the Huskers can manage to win in a comparative shoot-out.

 

[ANYCHawk]

Nobody wins. Nobody wins watching Nebraska play Minnesota

 

[JStandefer]

Agreed. I’ll go with diarrhea though

I’m with this guy.

 

[Wadzinator]

Who cares both coaches are full of themselves and shit

 

[hawkisak]

Rain/snow mix with 20-30 mph winds...I’lll take the Gophers 31-21. I think Nebby has to be emotionally broken after last week.

 

[beatdahuskers]

Nebraska rolls them. 38-14

14? I think you have dyslexia. The rodents put of 31 against Iowa. The Pinkskirts are the worst defense in the Big Ten giving up an average of 35 PPG.

I think you mean 41. 41-38 perhaps as the rodents eat all of UN's corn.

The Gopher RB just put up 160 on the ground against Ohio State on 20 some carries. Minnesota has a solid front 7 on D. In this weather, Gophers all day. Really though, neither team is very good so we’ll see what happens

I hope you're right ... but the game is also at Memorial Stadium. Of course, that hasn't meant much this year for the Huskers ....

I’m fine either way. I just don’t want to be put in a spot to stick up for Minnesota again. There are no winners in this thread

 

[ROCKY MOUNTAIN HAWK]

Does any team make losing look easier than Nebber?

Nebs cruises to an easy defeat. Unlike last weak against NW.

I suppose that if the whole Midwest is as windy as is prognosticated ... then that could neutralize some of Nebber's passing advantage.

 

[ichawk24]

Nebraska opened as a 6 point favorite, and its all the way down to 3.5. Sharps must like Minnesota and the points.

[43DC]

The Gophers are the better team and NU players have to be questioning ALL their coaches after last weeks "History Making Meltdown"...

I'm going Gophers. 38-27

 

[HerkysBro]

With 5 National Titles I got to say Minnesota wins this one...After all - they are the bigger true Blue Blood program between two .

 

[David1979]

I don't know who wins this one. I think it will be another close game like the Nebraska Northwestern game.

 

[hawkster03]

I'm really not sure who is going to win, hard to guess. But I know who I want to win and that is the Gophers!!!!!

 

[LaQuintaHawkeye]

Don’t see much downside or upside for us either way. I suppose it’s marginally better for us if the Goofs win.

Something tells me Nub takes it tho.

 

[thecarls]

To be fair we spotted Minnesota 14 points.

Hey... I hope you all are right and the Goofs win. I just don’t think they will. 38-21.... there added a Goof TD

 

[Biggus Blockus]

 

[slattdj]

I think this would be a more devastating loss for Minnesota although it's hard to say.

 

[Herkmeister]

Minnesota = Year 1

Nebraska = Year 0

I think the Nebraska Christ Child walks on water and sinks the boat rower’s dingy.

But I’d pay to see Nebraska castrated again.
