Thank God the Husker opener is almost here. The players need a game, the coaches need a game, the fans need a game and the media needs a game. I don't think there's much left to write or talk about. We've been doing that for most of the past month. Now it's time to tee it up and see what happens. My prediction for what it's worth: 10-4 after a loss in the Big 12 championship game and a win in a bowl game.
