Heading over to a buddies to watch the game shortly. He and his wife are Nebraska grads. Should I go in talking smack right off the bat or chill until halftime and see how things are going?? :D :eek::p

Welcome newbie :D

Same thing happened to me :eek:

I'd go in quietly, because I hate to have things rubbed in my face after being cocky. Speak softly and carry a big stick as Teddy said.

Watching the Fox FS1 pre-game show. They are in their first commercial break and so far it has been all Nebraska, and no Illini, as in zero, zilch, nada, empty set, I think you get the idea. I'm sure they will get around to our Fighting Lovies soon enough.

I think it will be very interesting to hear what the FS1 analysts have to say about our O&B. In fact, they just finished talking to their guy stationed at the Mich St. game this weekend and he said that AFTER our game Neb's schedule gets nasty due to them playing 3 top tem teams. Well, why can't the nastiness start tonight??? Let's GO!!

Gabe Megginson to the bench. Jordan Fagan in. Expect Larry Boyd and Vederian Lowe to rotate at tackle. #illini

I logged-in to make this same comment.

It makes me think --- why do we need to wait until Year 4 of Lovie's regime to start winning? Let's kick some butt tonight!

(On the other hand, I have to admit, I was in Tampa Bay for the thrashing, so I'm not terribly optimistic. Perhaps the Analysts are right in slighting us.......)

Fox Sports Analysts predictions (just for the unofficial record):
Robert Smith - Neb - 27-17
Matt Leinhart - no prediction
Dave Wanstadt - No prediction

The last two were chowing down on Chicago hot dogs as time ran out on the show.

Kicked out of the game for poor form. Can't lead with your head ever, even if you're aiming for the midsection.
