We go toe to toe with wisconsin every other year, Iowa almost every year, Ohio State for a random 30 minutes, and are in position to beat NW every time. But until these guys start tasting victory and actually get used to it, losing seems to be the narrative. Channeling a little Pelini wouldn't hurt!

Iowa will beat up Big Red at the lone of scrimmage.

No, because as much as I thought Frost was the guy his teams don't improve, they are consistently mediocre to poor and that is coaching. Unless Ten of Iowa's starters go down with Covid there is no reason to expect anything but them being consistently mediocre to poor.

No running game and defensive scheme doesn't work. Can't stop run and play too far off the receivers in the secondary.

Until we prove we can beat the lowest level teams, we surely won't beat a consistent mid-to high level team which Iowa has been. Very Sad State of Affairs.

Iowa is too strong in the trenches, they have a running game, and are a disciplined football team. Unfortunately Nebraska is none of those things.

We cannot run the ball or throw downfield. Unfortunately, it's not going to happen this year. Hawkeyes 45 Huskers 14. GBR

Scott Frost will get out coached once again. He belongs in the FCS world.

Is it reasonable to consider Nebraska a potential playoff team in 2025?

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?

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

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.

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

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

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?

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.

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.

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.

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!

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

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.
