Who will start the game for Nebraska against Iowa State on Saturday? We'll find out when the offense hits the field and we see who's in the middle of the huddle.
Zac Lee or Cody Green? That is all that people talked about today at Nebraska's weekly press conference and we didn't find out a whole lot today. Bo Pelini and Keith Mann, Nebraska's sports information director has to be proud. All of the players said all of the right things. There's always a competition. There's no division in the team. When either QB is named the starter, the other QB will accept it and support them. I don't care who is starting at QB, I'm going to support whoever's out there.
I think that Bo Pelini gave a couple clues as to who we will see in the first series of the game on Saturday for Nebraska. Bo talked a few times about he doesn't overreact to things. He's always said that he doesn't get too high and he doesn't get too low. But today he talked about not making rash decisions. They just keep on doing what they are doing and in the end everything will all even out. Point, Lee. He also said that as of right now, this it is Zac's spot to lose. Point, Lee.
MY GUESS - We will see Zac Lee to start the game on Saturday. I think the real question will be for how long. How long will the leash be for Zac? What if this offense is not doing anything, the way it didn't do anything against the Virginia Tech and Texas Tech and for 3 quarters against Missouri? That is when I think we will see the change. This isn't the Iowa State of the past few years. They're not Texas or Oklahoma, but they're also a team that you have to look out for. If Austen Arnaud and Alexander Robinson are able to move the ball and maybe put a some points on the board early, then Nebraska's going to have to answer and score some points of their own. Not just field goals either. The offense will need to a) move the ball down the field, avoid three and outs and get into the red zone and b) capitalize with 6 points rather than just 3. If we don't see this happening, then Cody Green maybe your quarterback for the rest of game and the starter for the rest of the year.
But we'll have to see because it's a 'game time decision'.
