from Steven M. Sipple@HuskerExtraSip:
Nebraska defensive star Darrion Daniels is asked about Minnesota's talented group of RBs and immediately steers conversation in a different direction.
"They have some big tight ends. That'll be something different for us (to defend)."
I notice Gophers with a lot of two tight end sets and even some three tight end sets, I believe. Thought Paulson and Kieft were noticeably better in run blocking. Used SpannFord for first time with great success. Witham gets some run as well. Run game has missed Beebe. TE as passing option seems like good option as opponents have to fear and respect the crossing slants from the WRs.
