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.......

Danny Baker

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.

Gene Baker

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!

Ryan Bordenkircher

Cuz all the talent we have

William Snesrud

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.....

Mike Brown

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.

James Traut

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

Kevin Gress

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.

Kent A. Lang

No depth or experience in the DL.

Stephen Johnson

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????????

Will Cortez Mills be a game-changer at wide receiver in 2025?

NU needs a freshman to have a big time impact. Hopefully this is the one.

I've given up any hope of anyone being an impact player until they prove they can actually perform. Too many "BUSTS", including the team, overall.

Roland St.Denis

Having watched him several times now, he needs to develop physically, and even more importantly, must focus on the mental game. He has too many lapses at the high school level. That will be magnified in the B1G

John Hoie

The only recent freshman I thought would be an impact player was Raiola. Barney was a pleasant surprise.

Why not... at least we can hope during the off-season. We are Nebraskans after all.

Michael Hoffart

Next season would be the season to do it. Pretty good set up schedule wise and we SHOULD have the talent to make it happen.

James Key

At least 8 Wins if no glaring issues.

A B

1. look at MR history. 2. Look at how MR's aggressiveness at improving coaching and roster. 3. the team has been learning how to win and we are positioned for a break through. 4. Dylan Raiola!!!

Joe Hegarty

Passing game will click.

David Dahlkoetter

Better depth. Offensive line needs to improve and will Defense looks awesome. Qb play will be better. Better widouts.

James McDermott

The schedule favors the huskers. The team seems to finally have the finishing attitude

Mike O

Yes. In fact, NU will win 11 games next year. But 3 of the wins will be moral victories. Final record: 8 wins, 3 moral victories, 2 losses.

I can't do it! I can't say it. Husker fans have been burned too many times. PROVE IT FIRST! GBR!

Isaiah Skrdla

We replaced 3 coordinators and basically lost our d-line. I haven’t seen any evidence that our o-line will be good next year. We also lost most of our running back room. We’re probably not going to be much better next year than this year.

Dave Levesque

I've been let down too many times.

Roger Shriver

If Coach Ruhl had made more changes after year 1 (OC, special teams) I would be more optimistic for year 3. But after three games, extra practices, and a bowl game (barely) this year, I haven't seen much to make me think things will be that much better next year.
