Huskers -- game one

It's been a busy week after being sick but I'm looking forward to the long three-day weekend.

Of course, it's time for the Huskers to kick it off tomorrow against Florida Atlantic.

Here are my overall thoughts heading into a season that I predict 11 wins, including the bowl game.

On offense, I think Zac Lee will do fine at QB. I think that he will run the ball more and with more success than Ganz. I think Cody Green will play though too. At RB, Helu will have a big year but he will also get banged up. I expect Burkhead to get a lot of carries as well. I really like the makeup of the offensive line. I love the tight ends but I'm a big concerned about the receivers. Peterson and Swift were so steady. Are there receivers like that?

On defense, year two under Pelini will see them get much better. I think there will be more consistency and also knowing the defense will allow them to freelance a bit too. I love the defensive line. I'm concerned about the LBs just because they are so young and inexperienced. I think the DB will be great.

My breakdown of the schedule is:

So it begins...

My schedule starts picking up again today as the class I teach at UNL (JGen 300) starts. I'm teaching on Tuesday's and Thursday's this semester from 9:30-10:45. I hope I have a great class like last semester. We will see. This will be my third semester teaching the class so I feel a lot more comfortable heading into it. I have all of the weeks figured out and the days will be much busier because I'm trying to pack the three days into two. Maybe one of the students will bring me an apple!
