Two toughest games (Illinois/Northwestern) are in Lincoln, and the Husker offense should dominate these defenses.

Offense upside capability.

Wade Williams

I just think the offense is good enough to win those games based on what I have seen from those other teams. Let's face it, the B1G just isn't very good at all so it's no great accomplishment!

Joshua Spencer

just optimism.

Tim Peterson

I have not been overly impressed by the other B10 teams.... Does OSU really frighten anyone? Nebrascal

John Cornett

I'm hoping the bye week and entering Big Ten play with help settle the young defense in a little bit and the offense takes care of business

Keith Petrie

I voted that way because when they run up against adversity they tend to do what is needed at least for the season... maybe not the playoff or the bowl but the season. GBR!

Harold Peterson

offence

Brad Cromer

Bo will fix D.

Jeff Salts Jr.

Because we should be!

RedRush Redalfran

when the going gets tough, BigRed will get tougher!

Michael Peters

If they can make it to the Northwestern game undefeated in BIG 10 play that means they fixed a lot of their problems. if not... they will not win another game after Northwestern. & Bo will be gone.

Mark Plotner

Maybe right on loose the rest of their games, but I still think they will beat Michigan St.

Too many questions...Illinois/Purdue hung with ranked opponents this season, and Minnesota/Northwestern will be battle tested on the schedule.

With our Cosgrove like defense, there's only one way to vote on this!

Ronald D. Bull

Northwestern/Michgan State one of these will win if defense dose not show up.

Shawn Koke

because of the pink skirts

Keith Rayman

uneasy about mental state of team

Scott Dreas

Huskers are too young on defense this year to go undefeated until Michigan game

David Zacharia

Defense has two many holes Offense disappears when game is on the line Adjustments are terrible or non-existence at halftime

Brian Frahm

Too many holes on defense at this point.

Lance Ridpath

NW still too disciplined and mobile for this crew.

Matt Shalberg

Terrible defense and offense can't score points.

Mark Plotner

Like most, I don't think we beat Northwestern. if we do, our D is gonna have to show up at least enough to slow them down. Then it will be how well our Offense actually executes

Phillip Tournor

Our defense is so bad, Illinois wlll run through us, and Northwestern will run us out of memorial stadium. I do think we will loose to Purdue or Minnesota on the road.

Jeff McCauley

As much as it pains me to think it, I suspect Northwestern will rape the Husker defense without pause.

Bart Burroughs

don't trust that Bo can get the defense fixed.

Joshua Howard

We need a Defense to win games.

Robert Schutt

With 3 of the remaining 4 January games on the road, it will be an uphill climb in remaining playoff undefeated.

Terrence Smith

... and I hope I'm wrong.

Randy Wolf

Michigan.

VAHuskerFan

They r playing really well but I just don’t see them winning out in January, they live and die by the 3 and it’s gonna end up costing them, not much inside the paint game. I see everyone standing outside the 3 line wanting to shoot the 3 but no one ever inside to get rebounds, wont work against Mich

Suicide Slush Puppie

Probably not - that's expecting a lot - but regardless, what they've accomplished is nothing short of extraordinary.

Jerry Goodwin

This team is really good and they will continue to give themselves a chance in every game, but...3 of the next 4 on the road, including Michigan? That's a tough run. If they win out in January and beat Illinois at home on February 1st, they'll be #1 in the country the next day.

Roy Katskee

They are living on borrowed time.

David Weaver

Feature back is important to have but DEPTH is also CRITICAL. If don't have a feature back then either then depth chart is flooded with talent. But in the Big Ten you better have a GREAT 2nd and 3rd string to make it through the season. With EJ it helped he was so quick he didn't take huge hits

Terry Barker

Nebraska was always most stable when we had a feature back that can actually "carry" the team with his legs.

Ron Joseph

Nebraska in the past was successful with one top back. We've fallen on hard times because we haven't developed or recruited a great back. But the others need to be developed so we have a pipeline of backs like we use to have.

Roger Craig & Tom Rathman ring a bell ? Not only a dynamic duo playing for NU, but also for the 49ers !! YES we want multiple RB’s to rotate in & out to keep their legs fresh!! GBR 🎈

SEW

Look at the success in the playoff, the teams have 2-3 capable RB's they use to keep them healthy and offer the D different looks. Johnson was unique, most backs can't take that many snaps a season and stay healthy and sharp.

PJ SAid

Every good team, including the NFL, will rotate backs on a regular basis. This last year Nebraska should have used a 2nd running back more often - NEB is lucked out EJ stayed healthy.

Brad Loseke

Different backs have skills for different situations.
