I believe we will win against NW, Rutgers, Purdue, and Iowa...and finish regular season at 6-6.

Dr. Steve Blad, Ph.D

I think we lose 2 but no more. This team is way better than their record shows. I think they lose to MSU but every other game is winnable. If NU beats Minnesota I think you will see a major turn.

Michael Ervin

Beat 3 beatable teams and NW looks vulnerable

Lanny Finkey

No Doubt! Just need 1 confidence building win. Watch out Minnesota!

Cole N Heather Burns

Ball bounces a different way for us and we are .500 right now we can get 4 of the next 6.

Unless the coaching decisions improve, there will be no bowl game. Eichorst, you SUCK! There were much better coaches out there and you just had to hire a coach with losing records!

Garret Shaw

Bingo!!! Past behavior predicts future behavior. Coaching decisions are a behavior. Poor decisions before, poor decisions now, poor decisions forever. Same can be said of Eichorst.

T David Andrew M

Look at the schedule, there are at least 3 teams that handle us easily and the other 3 could do it as well since we don't know how to manage the 4th quarter.

Todd Bernhardt

Riley doesn't have the desire

Garret Shaw

NOTHING leads me to believe this team is improving.

Geoff Johnson

Going to go 0-4 or 1-3 vs. Michigan State, Minnesota, Northwestern and Iowa.

Visitor

i don't see four more wins possible with this coaching staff with all the experience they are making way to many 1st year mistakes

Jeff Green

we can't finish games.

Randy Wolf

Four more wins. Probably will beat Rutgers. It will take luck to beat the Gophers. After that there is no chance. Possibly Perdue but I doubt it.

Arlie Rauch

A team that cannot pick up a yard at will most of the time is not a championship team.

Kent A. Lang

Probably not but the Pinstripe Bowl would be cool!

Brian Lake

Huskers haven't shown the ability to close out a game.

Sean Fluharty

At this point, does it really matter?

Doug Shonka

Do the math.

Thomas Green

I don't think there enough wins out there. Maybe Purdue and Rutgers but that only makes 4 wins this year. Wait until next year.

John Lind

as much as it hurts to say this, but, unless they can figure out how to finish a game, i don't believe my huskers will even win 2 more games this season, so, Mike Riley will now have an even worse record than Callahan...so sad, the days of the huskers dominance are over until we find a coach.....

Ronald D. Bull

I sorry to say this but NW is a challenge at best it will 40% to win. R is away game and we have not played well in those games. Iowa is just a better team unless something happens their QB they will win. Even Minn. will give us a lost. Unless we get our defense back and our QB back we will loss.

Qb. Oline. Offense could be very good. Back 7 on d should be good Concerns at rb depth and unknowns on interiour d line.

Terrence Smith

With their schedule, they might be able to make it this year.

Chester Ogborn

They are as much a potential playoff team as Arizona State and Indiana were last year. There is no harm is fans dreaming big. A team with a recent history like Nebraska is going to put it together this year. Why not the Huskers?

Joe Nigro

Just wishful thinking but I believe the talent is there. We will need a few breaks but it is possible.

George mcdaniel

It had to do with mindset confidence and luck

Matt

They have a schedule that gets to the year 3 Matt Rhule 10 wins. If they can hang with Penn St. then they could be in the conversation as a 10-2, 11-1 team.

Chad Alexander

So tired of delusional preseason talk. How about a winning conference record and a bowl win.

Charlie Knapper

Haven't proven anything, yet.

Brad Mcbride

They are a 6-6 football team until proven otherwise.

Chin Sin Chong

No on field results to support that yet. History told us talks are simply empty statements

Roy Katskee

NU has not demonstrated that they belong.

Melvyn Halfon

NU has not been able to recruit top notch players. The media has led fans to believe that 3 star players can be molded into 4 and 5 stars. That dog don’t hunt?

Kevin Hubbell

Let's not put the cart before the horse! 7 or 8 wins maybe.

Joe Hegarty

That's crazy alright. Just hope they make a bowl game again.

Suicide Slush Puppie

We simply don't have the level of talent needed to reach the playoff. Achieving more wins that last year is a more realistic goal.

Bill Petty

Anything can happen, but up until now, Rhule hasn't shown that he can get the job done. I hope I'm wrong, but I just can't by the hype. Show me on the field.

Eric Picquet

They haven’t done anything on the field to warrant that expectation. But there is nothing wrong with the team setting it as a goal and striving to reach that goal.

Mike O

Immanuel Kant would say no, but he had a very strict definition of reason. I can only imagine him pooh-poohing the Huskers because Rhule is compulsed to pass the ball on clear running downs. Afraid to actually hand the ball to the fullback on 3rd and 1. And instead is in the shotgun. NO THEY KANT!

Bob Flanagan

Thry’ll be better this year, but I think 9-3 or 8-4 are likely which keeps them out of contention this year. My hope is that by year 4 under Rhule will finally get them ibto the playoff picture

Richard Johnson

They need to prove they belong. Still to ,many players on the squad that played on bad teams and don't know how to win yet.

Greg Engel

I just can’t let myself get my hopes up too high. I am hopeful for a good season, though

Dan Larsen

Let's consider a few "bigger" bowl game victories first.... way to early!

Steve Slezak

Too soon
