    Welcome to the forum kompulsive...also have loved Nebraska since I saw the line. Should have jumped on it early, although I don't think it will matter at the end of the game.

        You were probably just making a metaphor of it, but Faurot Field is field turf.

        I'm looking more and more at the wind gusts tonight if I had include such a factor.

        I think the element of Lee making any mid-range to long passes to keep Mizzou honest on defense will be much, much more marginalized as opposed to how Blaine Gabbert will be able to sling it in the wind.

            Yes, I know the field is turf.

                I'm on Nebraska for a G note -3. I think Mizzou backers are looking at their record and not their talent. I've seen all Mizzou's games this year and I've yet to see that defense lay the wood on anyone. They are very finesse, soft type of team. If Mizzou covers I would be shocked but it wouldn't be the first time. I have to go with what I see. Mizzou's been playing horrible competition and have looked horrible playing them. Nebraska looks much more physical and fast as well, especially on defense.

                I sure hope I'm on the right side because if so, I'm going to press it all up on Bama.

                  UPDATE: It's raining cats and dogs at the game right now. The announcer just said that that doesn't bode well for Mizzou. I sure hope so. You really never know though because some teams play better in the rain then others. I don't know about Nebraska but I know for sure that Miami and FSU are both horrible in the rain. I always fade them if it's raining.

                    I wasn't going to play this game, but with everyone in the world on Nebraska I'm jumping in on the other side.
                    The public is usually wrong. I know that pertains more to the NFL because of the limited number of games
                    and increased hype but I've seldom seen such a consensus. We'll see.
