Just got back from Nebraska's first game of the season.
Jamal Lord looked good running the ball, but with the exception of the touchdown pass to Wilson Thomas he sucked throwing the ball...only like 36 yards. Not quite Eric Crouch like at all, but he's got time to improve.
Darrhan Diedrick ran well, but not well enough to shed his co #1 spot on the depth chart at I-back. Thunder Collins also ran decently enough to keep the depth chart as is.
The special teams play rocked with two blocked punts - one for a touchdown.
Defense was decent, but I don't think I like the move from exclusive man to man to a mixture of zone and single coverage. Seemed like all of Arizona State's big gains came from the zone coverage.
Other than that I'm glad that football has started, and surprisingly am ready for classes to start...BTW our new pledges rock!!!
