The centerpiece of today’s football action is the game in Blacksburg, where No. 19 Nebraska plays a game of footed ball with No. 13 Virginia Tech. The results of the game itself may be moot, as Gobbler Country already simulated the contest in NCAA 10:
Saturday’s Late Afternoon Slate: No. 19 Nebraska Visits No. 13 Hokies
Strong defense prevailed as the No. 13 Hokies took care of business 38-10 in front of a Lane Stadium capacity crowd.
[...] As the Hokie defense held strong in the second half, Tech’s offense chewed up the clock with long drives on the ground, wearing out Nebraska’s front four.
For posterity’s sake, though, let’s check in with Corn Nation, which exhorts the Cornhuskers to value turnovers, execution, and a fast start.
Allowing the Hokies to get that lead... well, we saw what happened last year as they never trailed throughout the game. We came back, but costly mistakes finished it in their favor.
Wouldn’t it be sweet to be on the other side this weekend?
