What was said before the game: |
Series Info: Nebraska is a perfect 6-0 against Texas Tech. Nebraska pounded the Red Raiders last year 56-3. Prediction: With Crouch still out, Lord will again have to lead this team to many early scores. Lord ran for 157 yards last game and averaged 8.7 yards per carry. The defense finally played like they can in the 2nd half of the Baylor game last week. They will need to step up this week and shut down Williams. Nebraska 42 Texas Tech 21 |
