Nebraska vs. Illinois/Early Games Thread

[OriginalCanesCanesCanes]

This is not a marquee matchup by no means but it sure is nice to large crowds again. Makes college football feel like college football.

I can’t wait to be part of a large crowd again

Martinez' pocket presence is

Martinez' pocket presence is

I mean he’s just not that good. I haven’t seen a thing that makes me think this guy is a P5 starting quarterback. Is Nebraska that hard up for quarterbacks?

 

[Genghis Cane]

Is Hightower still on Illinois?

 

[Go Canes!!]

Frost is a dead man walking after he loses this game.

Watching in 4K on YTTV to see if it’s worth it for the rest of the season.

He simply hasn't recruited or developed the position at all so far in Nebraska

Is Hightower still on Illinois?

Yeah, think I saw him on ST once.

God, that 2018 WR class ended up being so underwhelming. What a shame…

 

[Cribby]

How is it?

He's already switched it to pornhub, give him five minutes

 

[OriginalCanesCanesCanes]

How's it looking?

The Hawaii UCLA game as well?

Hightower was the beginning of me writing off “blue chip” receivers with minute and a half long tape.

I wasn't blown away by his tape, he won me over a little with the all star game and practices. Always go with your initial feeling, he looked slow and plodding the moment I saw his film

Is Hightower still on Illinois?

He’s not dressed today

What's he need those additional 3 minutes for?
