Game #6

It's gameday again, and the Huskers take their show on the road this week to Columbia, Missouri, to battle the Tigers of the University of Missouri. This highly-anticipated matchup has all the makings of a huge game, with much at stake, including the driver's seat to the Big XII North division title. The Tigers were pre-season picked to win the Big XII North, but the Huskers have different ideas as they look to post their biggest victory yet this season.

It is my belief that this game will speak volumes as to just how far the Huskers have come under the tutelage of Bill Callahan, and will give an idea as to what we can expect for the rest of the season. It's going to be an extremely difficult game, as the high-flying Missouri offense will try to score early and often in taking advantage of an unproven Blackshirt defense. The environment is sure to be hostile-at-best, as the Tiger faithful will be loud and obnoxious come the 8:15 p.m. kickoff. The Huskers have the talent, I believe, to be successful against these odds, but it's going to take a perfect game-plan and great execution on both sides of the ball. Nebraska will need to put it all together this week and play their best game of the season. On the road at a rowdy Faurot Field with all the odds against them will make the task of winning a tough one.

But it can be done. The Huskers will come to play football today. Nasty, dirty, smash-mouth football. Missouri expects to win this game today based on the comments from some of their players and even their head coach. Pride is on the line, and Nebraska still has lots of it. They will show today that playing football at the University of Nebraska is no joke. Nebraska travels to Missouri today, and hands the Tigers an upset in their own house. Huskers 38, Tigers 32.

GO BIG RED!!!
