5. Nebraska will have rust in the first half

The Cornhuskers were supposed to open up their season last week against Akron, but weather postponed that game with no makeup imminent.

This is key because of the inexperience on the Nebraska team and a new coaching staff taking over this season.

How will Adrian Martinez fare in his first ever start at the collegiate level?

How will Scott Frost coach in his first game at Nebraska as the head man?

Will the team gel immediately? Probably not. So the Buffs need to take advantage and come out in the first quarter with a fire underneath them.
