NIU vs. Nebraska preview
I know we're supposed to be shaking in our boots against the Cornhuskers but their starting quarterback Tanner Lee threw 4 interceptions last week......We can be in this game with our defense.
Preview video by BTN: https://youtu.be/HTDf-HnbXGg
Also one of the best players on their defense will not be playing .... Name is Joshua Kalu(Safety)
Can we exploit that?

Only way NIU can keep this close and have a shot to win is if NIU DOES NOT rely on its defense to keep it close. The offense has to treat a 0-0 game like it is down by 2 scores, treat every offensive possession like it is critical from the ONSET, not when you are down by 21. Please Huskies, VALUE offense, it is important.
Looks like some Huskie money is coming in, probably for the injury factory you mentioned, A line that was 14-14.5 is now at 13-14.
One thing going against NIU is that the whole looking past to next week is probably out the window. A close game at Arkansas St was enough to get their fans antsy, and then giving up 42 to Oregon, the pressure is on for Nebraska to have a strong showing this week, not just to win, but to win handily. NIU needs to come out fast in this game and get a lead, amplify any Husker doubts early.

Last year, the players chose the uniforms. So who is doing it this year? STF? RC? Or, did we hire a fashion consultant?

What is totally false ????
So you are saying that the players I have talked to didn't tell me they hate the new uniforms??? WTF so I just made that up ??? Omg give it up! The guys I talk to hate these it doesn't mean others don't love them I was just passing along what I was told by the players I have talked to my God grow up

It does make us look like Stanford. And white isn't one of our school colors.

It is now. And, at Homecoming you will be responsible for standing at the 50-yard line and leading the crowd in the "red, black, white" chant!

Perfect! Let's hope you're not mistaken for one of the players, though.
