Kickoff is at 8:00 PM on Saturday, so you have plenty of time to study up. Print out this week's pocket guide and get to it.
There are depth charts for both teams that show you how Missou's 6' 8", 325lb offensive tackle matches up with the Husker's D Line. The Tale of the Tape shows NU has a surprising advantage in a number of matchups, and the offensive stats reveal that Marlon Lucky has a bigger role on offense than some of us may have realized.

I honestly don't understand all the fuss about Missouri. I think they're ALL hype, to wit:
* NU's strength of schedule through first 5 games is 21st, MU's is 50th.
* NU is 77th in total D, but the avg of their opponents offense was 47th; MU's D is 82nd despite the avg of their opponents O being 62nd.
* NU's O has produced against opponents with an avg D of 51st; MU avg opponents D avg was 82nd.
* The above stats aren't even as bad as they should be for MU becauase they do not include I-AA Illinois St.
Playing at home will help the Tigers, but not enough to beat the better team: NU 41 MU 27...

Can we have color back on these print out guides? For those of us who have a color printer at work that we can use for personal reason ;)

Hey Tyler. I hear you. They do look nicer in color. Here's the deal. We've been printing a few thousand to hand out at the games we attend. And since our corporate sponsor hasn't stepped up yet, we went with black & white to save a few bucks.
I'll see what I can do to bring back the color.
Or maybe I can persuade you to purchase a subscription to our new BRN Illustrated glossy magazine? :)

Do you think there is any truth to the rumor that MU fans will be throwing bottles of "tiger" piss at the game? I heard something about the subject on yesterday morning's show with Jim Rose. "Get 'em while their hot"

So what about the damn bell, no one even knows about it, that is probably why the players have a hard time leaving up to the traditions of being a Husker; they don't even know what they are.

I think the Pinkel factor might be replaced by the Callahan factor.
