Isaiah Skrdla

2700 yards last year makes 3000 seem pretty attainable. I also think that the proposed run first offense paired with an emphasis on play action passes will offer more open targets. Run first offenses win championships!!! Look it up. Ultimately his destiny lies in the hands of the offensive line.

Brian Wallace

Yes, but they have to use everyone. The backs, receivers, and tight ends.

Michael McKain

Why not?! He has the talent and now the coaching.

Stephen Johnson

He may get to 3,$20001 yards but will still only win 5 games this year.

Robert Hutsell

Nearly 2700 yards under a so so quarterback's coach, so 3100 yards w a really good quarterback's coach is very possible.

David MacKay

Tommy throws one of the best deep balls ever...if he can just nail down the short and intermediate passes he has a chance for 3000++++++

Jim Jones

For the reasons stated by Athons...He wasn't too far off last year and it isnt that high of a number in this era. He definitely has the talent.

bjb1959

with a caveat. he will need to get much better at short and medium range passes and make better decisions with his check downs. his deep ball is already pretty good. if he does that, and I think he puts in the extra work to do so and with an actual quarterbacks coach helping I think he gets it done.

He's not going to start the entire year.

steve ruhd

Not a very good poll question, its not even a certain that he will be a starter. Knowing football and the current college landscape, I would say there is a better than 35% chance he does not start every game

Ronald D. Bull

I agree with the first two, he will not be able to stay in the pocket with rush. the BYU and Mimai GAMES WILL BE HIS DOWN FALL IF NOT JUST BYU.

Billie Mann

Weather, too big a factor in Big 10

Shelly Baker

Tommy cant throw a short or intermeidiate pass to save his life.

Gene Baker

He can't throw a short pass and an out to save his life. He just can't find the open receiver.

Bill Lee

Armstrong is nothing more than a bandaid to control the bleeding until Riley gets his players installed

Given the Huskers’ difficult 2026 football schedule, is it realistic to think 8 wins are possible?

Wade Williams

Looking at the schedule, 5-0 on the front end is a definite possibility. Going 3-4 on the backend is doable. Having said that, there's still no consistency with this team, making 5-7 just as much of a possibility.

8 wins.. Lol. We'll be lucky to get half of that. Do you know who our coach is?

Scott Ferguson

Schedule is not favorable at all.

Wade Williams

The schedule actually is favorable if you look at not just who we play, but when we play them. Looking at the non con, we'll definitely come out of the gate 3-0, then MSU & MD. We can win those. That would be 5-0. 3-4 on the back end is doable, even if you pencil in IU, OR, & OSU as definite L's.

Christopher O'Brien

6 wins

Robert Lloyd

Never would believe this, but we could come away with only 2-4 wins. I do love the new QB, the new DC coordinator and new OL coach. But no proven RBs, limited personnel in the DL,, Rhule has never learned the run first offense, and we have TOO MANY coaches. A hat on backwards isn't going to help.

Alexanderthegreatandterrible

We saw what we saw last season and that means little hope we can win 5-6 in 2026. Too many new things to know what is going to happen but easy to assume 8 wins is out of the question.

AK-460Mag Nurse

I hate to be this negative but I think we'll be lucky to make a bowl game 😔 Between not being able to beat a ranked opponent, the coaching carousel, no proven QB or RB and just sucking the last 25 years I'm starting to lose hope and lose faith in this staff. GBR 😭

Edward Payne

I'm hopeful, but six wins seems most likely until the the team proves itself with a new QB and rebuilt lines.

Andy Redick

Not possible. Lost our best player to the NFL draft. New OL coach and DC. Major rebuild. Scary to think this is year 4 and NU is talking about a major rebuild. Rhule sells the Kool Aid hard in the off season. GBR!!!

Nebraska Right to Life

QB turnover machine. No D tackles. No RBs. Good Luck. 6-6 is the absolute ceiling. 5-7 is what it will be.

YES have QB option run pass

Robert Lloyd

He seems more than just a mobile QB, he plays with abandon and spunk. Why wasn't he here right out of high school? But how could we have lost Ekeler? Have we turned into the dumbest program in America?

Ruthie Patterson

Mobile QB

Michael Gross

Running quarterback opens ton on new plays.

Scott Ferguson

Mobility is a good thing to have. Opens up a few things.

John Haller

It better or Holgorsen will need to be the next firing

Joe Hegarty

I sure hope so.

Alexanderthegreatandterrible

Of course, it should since we had a statue QB, once Lateef was in the offense changed to suit his skill set, and so it follows that Dana will tweak the offense to suit Colandea's skill set and with a new o-line coach changes come.
