After we beat Toledo, the pressure will be on Big Red to lose to La Tech for this writer to keep his percentages up this year. Perhaps our biggest landmine remains Nebraska game. That is a must. Looking confident at 8-4 with chances for 9-3 or 10-2 if everything breaks our way. We may be due thjis year after all those overtime games in years past. Those linebackers better hold up. We will need them.

I think you all misunderstood the purpose of the article -- it's not identifying critical, season-changing games, it's picking up those seemingly small and insignificant games that could pop out of nowhere and add another loss to the W/L column. Seriously, who thought we'd ever lose to Baylor, and beat Texas A&M at this time last year?

"Can they put pressure on Bret Meyer forcing him into bad decisions and throwing interceptions."

Shouldn't there be a question mark at the end of this sentence? I'm no English major but I did pass 4th grade.

Secondly, Bret Meyer is not a bad decision maker. He proved that with the Kansas game where he was pressured constantly because Greg Coleman did not know how to block.

They are also pretty young in the secondary. It will be tough for them to stop us if we get down around the goaline with our tall, fast, and strong recievers.

Honestly, my key to their victory would be for them to score with us and hope it comes down to a last second play. With as much anticipation there is for this season, Jack Trice will be rockin' and by answering our scores and not having much to cheer about on defense, it will be tough for the crowd to stay into it.
