At stake in this game, just like old times, is the right to represent the North division in the Big 12 Championship game in Dallas on Dec. 5. For Snyder and his Wildcats, they need this game not only to secure a spot in the Big 12 Championship game, but they need this win just to become bowl eligible. Should they lose, their Cinderella season will come to an abrupt end. On Saturday, that additional motivation will be important to a team long on effort but short on talent. His four kick returns for touchdowns lead the nation, while his 1,077 return yards rank him second. Nebraska, on the other hand, enters the game riding a three-game winning streak that includes an impressive 10-3 victory over Oklahoma two weeks ago in Lincoln. After dismantling the Jayhawks in Lawrence a week ago, the Cornhuskers will be geared up for their final home game of the season in front of a sold-out Memorial Stadium. Nagurski Trophy finalist Ndamukong Suh leads a defense that ranks third in the country in scoring defense, allowing just 11 points per game. Suh and fellow defensive tackle Jared Crick have combined for 33 tackles for loss, and Crick ranks fifth in the conference with nine sacks. If the Wildcats want to be successful on offense, they will have to find a way to contain Suh and Crick. The Keys to Victory Kansas State The Wildcats will need to make big plays on special teams and possibly get another touchdown out of Banks. Snyder needs to reach into his old bag of tricks and find plays that neutralize the Cornhuskers' overwhelming superiority on defense when K-State has the ball. Niles Paul has played well of late and should be able to make big plays against the K-State secondary. On defense, Suh and company simply need to continue what theyve done all season...dominate the line of scrimmage and limit the number of big plays against them. Prediction Barring some major collapse on defense or special teams by the Cornhuskers, Nebraska should be able to handle their business in front of Husker Nation and millions more on ESPN. However, if K-States Banks can find a way to make some big plays on special teams, and the defense can force turnovers like Iowa State did in Lincoln four weeks ago, Snyders team could find themselves booking a trip to Dallas.

This Sunday the Buffalo Bills (3-6) will travel to Jacksonville to play against the Jaguars (5-4) in a game that features franchises going in different directions. The irony of this game is that Bills fans are showing up regularly in hopes of seeing a winning team again, whereas Jaguars fans have a winning team and couldn't care less that they do. The local faithful in Jacksonville have been showing up at around 40,000 strong per game, which means that once again the game will be blacked out locally. The Jaguars have gone 1-0 against the AFC East as they beat the Jets in a close game 24-22. In fact they have won two close games in a row, having also bested KC by a narrowmargin of 24-21. This week has been a noteworthy week of change and turmoil for the Bills players and coaches. This is sending a message loud and clear to the entire team that things are going to be different and that Dick Jauron has left the building, once and for all.3) For the first time in his career, (not due to an injury), the Bills bench starting quarterback Trent Edwards, and promote back up Ryan Fitzpatrick, because he gives the team the best chance to win against Jacksonville, according to Fewell.Trent Edwards may be a forgotten man for the rest of the year.
Translation - nobody's job is safe anymore.4) The Bills decide to upgrade their roster by swiping QB Brian Brohm off of the Green Bay Packers practice squad and sign him to a two year contract. What you can also conclude is that no other practice squad player on the Packers is safe from the scrutiny of the Bills.Jamon Meredith was the first player stolen this season, and now Brohm is the second. The Packers are trying to figure out what they ever did to the Bills to justify this behavior.5) To make room the Bills waivedlike-able third team QB Gibran Hamdan, who never was given a legitimate chance to show what he could do. Brohm has more upside so Hamdan was shown the door.And with the Bills all but eliminated from the playoffs, it is not at all out of the question to think that Brohm will see some playing time this season. If he shows well, it may result in the Bills feeling less pressure to draft a franchise QB with their first pick in the draft.It's not like Brohm has to beat out any All-Stars or Pro-Bowlers that are ahead of him on the depth chart.
