Florida Atlantic vs. Nebraska - Predictions, Comments - Let's Hear It!

The time is nearing! Only one more week until the Huskers take on our first opponent in 2009, Florida Atlantic University.

How do you think we'll do? Run away with it? Struggle at first, but hit our stride in the 2nd half? I do believe we will pull out the "W" - this first game is important in setting the tempo for the rest of the season.

Let's hear it Husker fans - what are your score predictions and what are our keys to the game?

My predictioins:
NU - 38
FAU - 10

42 - 7 Huskers. We will start slow and would not be suprised to see it 14 - 7 at half.

28-0 Huskers, D steps up in a big way but offense has a little trouble finding its rhythm. I know a shut out might seem out of reach but it would be an amazing start to the year : )

I am going with Nebraska 38-10. I think our passing game might struggle some but were eventually going to plow them over controlling the line of scrimmage. The second half is when Nebraska starts blowing them out and the Black Shirts start wearing down their O.

66 - 11 Nine TD's 4 - passing, 5 - running, 1 FG for DONU
One TD (2 pt conv), 1 FG for FAU

I got to monitor a two day bike race here in WV starting Saturday (8 -6) both days. Hopefully I'll have my monitoring station close to home so I won't miss much assuming the game is on internet radio.

Hope we don't have to come from behind. We're better at starting up immediately and keeping the lead. We'll win though.

41-6 Huskers, Yeah they might start out slow but the passing game should pick up the last 3 quarters. No worries on defense, Suh and the Blackshirts will do their jobs.

NU 34, FAU 13. It won't be as close as my prediction says. The Huskers won't be firing on all cylinders in the first game of the year, but they will dominate.

I THINK THAT THE HUSKERS WILL START OUT ALOW IN THE FIRST QUARTER AND THEN CATCH THEIR STRIDE IN THE SECOND QTR AND THE GO FULL STRIDE IN THE SECOND HALF TO A 42- 14 WIN AND THE BLACK SHIRTS SHOULD PLAY A BIG PART IN THE WIN FOR THE HUSKERS
