Eventually we will learn to pound the ball with the rushing game, the defense will come alive, and we will start having 11-12 wins per season again... we could start in 2020.

Roger Moellendorf

They could get seven wins (maybe) early, but will likely loose all of their last five games. South Dakota State could be a trap game.

Doug Miller

Slowly migrating away from Riley's kids helps boost their chances. Perhaps even 7 wins.

Jack Long

They should start the season 6-1 or even 7-0 if they can take Cincin at home - the rest of the scheduloe looks very daunting but Iowa comes here so maybe they can get one more out of those last 5

Randy Weitzenkamp

I was wavering on this one. We have a difficult schedule, but I'm hoping we turn the corner on execution and consistency. We need to learn how to put together 4 complete quarters not just 1 or 2.

Frank Johnson

The improvement has been in small increments, but improvement nonetheless. Scott is taking hold, the team will improve.

Randy Moss

Maybe a not strong with “got this”, but I do think they can make a bowl game.

Larry Sidders

Talent has improved and the coaching staff has to have learned what to expect.

Darrell Moore

The Coaches are understanding the opponent better and will begin to know what game plan to put in for each opponent.

Richard Murray

Minimum expectation next season.

Ruthie Patterson

Yes They Will Bank On It

Jon Jorgenson

Yes.

Richard Grover

QB question settled early, w reliable backups, more receiver weapons, deeper RBs, improved OL. Defense at least comparable to 2019. Offense turns 1 score losses to W’s. 5&2 thru 7 and get 1 of last 5.

Philip Spear

No more excuses.

The results on the field... just don’t seem to be improving. Under frost they’ve found creative ways to lose.

Dan Denton

Look for a couple of let downs early with Purdue, Cincinnati and South Dakota St.. Sad to say we aren't there yet. Oh and btw, arrogance will get you nowhere. 5-7 once again.

Rick Chambers

Still way to many holes to fill, and so young sorry but if we win 5 i will be surprised.

Todd Titus

To early yet to compete

Glad to see an acknowledgement that the O wasn't working. This shows some urgency about winning which I appreciate.

Bill Greim

Seems pretty obvious that when something is not working very well and you don’t know how to fix it you bring in outside experts for advise. Common practice.

Brad Bredenkamp

Holgerson has enough experience that he should be able to watch some film and the players in practice and call plays that play to their strengths. I'm betting he is also smart enough to stick with what's working until the other team stops it, and to develop some offensive rhythm.

Robert Lloyd

Anything is better than Satterfield. But I don't know why we didn't go after the US Army's OC who only makes $190k and absolutely knows how to run the ball.

Brad Bredenkamp

Because Army's OC can call the triple option and run the ball, but he probably doesn't know how to call for a pro-style quarterback. Plus it is very unlikely that Army's OC is going to jump ship right now the way their season is going. Maybe gets a look after the season if Holgerson doesn't stay.

Dick Plock

Needed change for quite a many games. Our offensive & defense coordinators are being out smarted.

Jean McGee

Satt has been wasting Raiola’s passing strength.

I refuse to get my hopes up

Craig S

Installing a whole new offense would be very difficult. You might be able to refine a small portion but learning the timing and terminology would be difficult.

michael daly

The habits of almost 2 years don't change overnight. That being said, A new , more forceful, high expectation coach, might be able to snap them awake and Go

I doubt that this late in the season this change will help. I hope it does but i have no faith left. The O-line is just horrible.

Sporty361

Good thing we played buffs early. They have improved throughout the season and have been rated most of year. They are moving forward while we are retreating.

Randy Weitzenkamp

My heart says yes, but my head says no. Are they capable? Absolutely, but we haven't seen enough consistency in any of the 3 phases of the game to warrant any confidence that we can win one of the last three games.

Robert Lloyd

Why don't we recruit the Army's offensive coordinator who really know how to develop a running game? And he only makes $190,000 per year.

Joe Hegarty

Won't be favored in any remaining games.

John Lienemann

They have to fight for it. I will be honest and say it depends on which NU team shows up and that’s why I think it’s going to be tough. They could either win the last 3 games but they could also lose the last 3 games.

Lyle Martin

Looking like they won't win again this year

Bill Scheef

Nope...hate to say it but we need a dual threat at QB. It was worth the try, but DR is better off served playing for a program that best suits his drop back talent and at this point in time it's not here. We will drop all three and maybe giving Lincoln Riley two weeks to plan...it's not good !

The ANTI Trump

offense is more confusion and chaos instead of concern and control

Roger Moellendorf

Sadly, no, I don't think it will happen. There are just too many problems with every aspect of their game. Especially offense and special teams.

Bill Petty

I am not hopeful that this team will win another game this year. Just about every phase of the game is sub par. We have clearly regressed as the season has unfolded. Don't forget how much Jeff Simms was hyped last year; how did that turn out. I don't have confidence in the coaching staff.
