what happened last year had some disappointments along the way, those disappoints will all but be a faded memory with the West division title in 2016.......

I believe that the Huskers have the right tools in place to win the west division. They should have last year, but had some close calls. They will be more committed this year and also will have experience on their side.

I believe that they have superior talent than most of the Big 10 west, and are equal with the best. Where Nebraska stands out is with the coaching staff. Mike Reilly and his staff make Nebraska the best in the Big 10 west!

Because of some unbelievable bad luck and working on getting the team to 'buy in' to the Riley system, last season was a thud..... They are buying in, know what is wanted and to do - yes, a Big 10 West Championship and possible more.....

the steady improvement from 2015 will continue into this season. TA is a seasoned QB who now has a good backup which will let him use his legs more.

Couldn't even beat Purdue last year. Same coach and less experience in the trenches where it matters most. Probably gonna be another rough one. Maybe in 2017.

A rough schedule... I think NU is tied with NW and Wisconsin for 2nd behind Iowa.

Can they? Yes. Will they? I doubt it this year. Riley's going to continue to try to make Tommy Armstrong a dropback QB and NU a pass-first team. Maybe next year with a QB more to Riley's liking.

No depth or experience in the DL.

The problem lies more with the head coach. He does not know how to win a championship. Never did win one at Oregon State. Whats different now????????

What's your reaction to the Huskers' switch to rugby-style punting?

I do not care HOW the punting is done. Only that it leads to WINS.

If something is broken, what does it hurt to try something different. Insanity- Doing the same thing and expecting a different result.

I like this style of punting. With the roll-out, it keeps the defense honest by keeping them in position in case of runs/throws by the punter.

Anything less than a drop kick just isn't trying. Additionally, NU had a punter who averaged 44 yards a kick and he had to transfer for a player to be named later. Maybe get the rugby guy in and set in place before upending what would have been a solid punting game.

Too much hassle (200 miles away) for an unknown event.

The event is a non-starter compared to the structure of actual plays and the support of young men working to find their place on the team.

If I want to see a carnival or a faire I'll go see one. This change shows fear of being a competitor on the part of Rhule and NU Athletics. It's embarrassing.

Losing the best recruiting tool of the spring and losing the money it would bring in is not smart in my opinion.

It's not a game. This was our tradition. Not a good decision on Rhule's part.
