Quick prediction on Mizzou-Nebraska

This is not gonna be gametape the defensive players will enjoy going over of Monday.

I think Sam Keller has a really good game for the Huskers, we're talking in the neighborhood of 400 yards passing good, but ultimately the bend-but-don't-break defense of the Tigers makes enough stops to turn this into a comfortable win for the Tigers.

The days of the blackshirts in the Nebraska defense are long gone. We may not hear punter Adam Crossett's name a single time Saturday night as the Tigers will score early and often. I see this game eventually playing out like the last couple of Mizzou-Texas Tech games have. The Tigers will roll up an early lead and then trade scores the rest of the game. Chase Daniel isn't winning the Heisman this season, but this game will go a long way toward earning him All-Big 12 first team honors and put him in the running for one of the All-American lists.

On top of that the winner of this game is in the driver's seat in what has become a 4-team race for the Big 12 North title and a place in the conference championship game to play for a spot in the BCS.

Mizzou gets up by a couple of scores early and then the scoreboards get light up like pinball machines as Missouri wins 48-37.
