I know that is a Nebraska newspaper so I give them a pass mostly on those predictions. I predict that Nebraska does not score 21 points in that game. In fact I will be surprised to see them score more than 17. BYU wins 35-16.

Which of the scenarios where a writer picked BYU to lose are you pulling for? JK I'm sure you meant 3 of 5.

Wow the beat writers have a much different opinion than the Husker fans. I have looked at a couple different Nebraska boards and most of them are predicting NU by 3 scores. They are also basically equating BYU to a UNLV type team.

I hope the NU players think the same way as the fans and BYU rolls them.

My boss is a huge Husker fan (season ticket holder, follows the team religiously) and he told me on a call today that he is "really concerned". FWIW

One of the BYU losing predictions didn't even include anything about Taysom. Either she didn't do her homework or she thinks he's going to be a non-factor. Personally I think she didn't do her homework. 8)

BYU is the underdog here. Against a Big Ten team, on the road, the crazy win streak, and an official 7-point dog in Vegas. Let's just hope that a Bronco D > a Nick Howell D, like we expect it should.

Her writing was terrible. Her analysis was very generic and superficial. She doesn't even realize Nebraska has a young untested offensive line, I stead she claims Nebraska has historically had stronger lines than BYU. No data, no foundation in reality, just poor writing and no insight.

(Tried to paste a sample of her writing, but my iPad won't let me paste in CC)
