Rivals/Yahoo.com's Mike Huguenin: "I don’t think huskers [sic] can win in Blacksburg"

Rivals.com's Mike Huguenin omitted Nebraska/Virginia Tech from his list of "statement games" in 2009. When Virginia Tech blog "FBS" asked Huguenin why, he got a surprising response:

I put Virginia-southern miss on there because I think southern miss has better-than-even chance of winning – and a c-usa school beating an acc school (even one that likely will be predicted to finish last in its division) is big. I didn’t put tech-nebraska because I don’t think huskers can win in Blacksburg; if game were in Lincoln, it would’ve been on there.

(HT: Gobbler Country) Can't win? While I think it'll be an extremely tough game for the Huskers to win, it's not mission impossible either.

traditionally slow start at the beginning of every season….. it’s not like it’s on the edge of impossible, either.

Tyrod Taylor is no world beater – unless his passing game improves, Tech will have to depend on turnovers to win again this season. Granted that we’ll be on the road and Blacksburg is tough – but holy cow……
