Nebraska has the potential to roll on this one, however, Illinois has the potential to score a lot as well. I predict NU will win a close game, less than by 15 points in a shootout. My predication somewhere around 42-35. NU needs to prove that they can play two solid halves of offense.

I'll have to see more consistency on the offensive side of the ball before I'd take us by 15 over any team in the B1G.

I haven't seen anything solid in 3 yrs under Frost and I am a big fan of his.

Nebraska has never really been a good team ATS. However, you never know what you're going to get from IL and we certainly can't pin the consistancy tag on NU at this point. I wouldn't touch this game!

75% of Huskers' problems are communication from the sidelines. Not getting plays called right, players late coming in, confusion, wasted time outs, etc. After the first scripted 15 plays we bog down. This won't change til Frosty shares play calling with Lubeck

Offensive play calling is too predictable. Frost needs to hand this duty over. Defense can’t stop the run, got turnovers this week and bowed up at the goal line, but that won’t happen evey week. Case in the point the first two games.

They're due right? And since I'm 42, and used to us winning 9 games every year for most of my life why would I change my expectation now? 8-4, win the bowl game, 9-4. Should be the minimum expectation for every Nebraska fan. Always! Then with playoff expansion coming, let's get in the mix!! GBR

Of the 3 things needed to win; player acquisition, development and deployment, acquisition is the best predictor of future success. By far in fact. Our roster is built because of great recruiting, development and roster management. It's really kinda all on the coaches to deploy well. If they do, yes

Better o line makes a running game. 4 large backs doesn't hurt.

Curt Marquis

It's a more complete team across-the-board. Defense should be a top 25 group

Strongest SF team yet. We've been close to beating our west div tormentors for the last 2 years. It happens this year. 3 wins vs Wi-IA-MN-Nw-Mi.

Wed, 09 Jun 2021 21:38:05 -0400

Stephen Andersson

Absolutely, between the football and basketball teams should get to 8 wins in 2021.

I'm a fan and I think they can win them all. If you don't think so, be a colorado fan.

I want to believe they can, but until the issues going on over the last several years stop....it's going to be more of the same.

maybe if they play teams like the Ladies of the Lords...

Even with the difficult schedule they have the talent to get 8 wins. Unfortunately, this will also take team execution, discipline and a swagger we have yet to see. I'm hoping for 6 wins and a bowl. Anything more is gravy.

Huskers have not shown ability to beat even avg teams and are much more likely to LOSE one of the games they should win. then upset a team that they are underdogs in. This looks like a bubble 6 win team, at best.

But at least they’re not in the Big 12 any more, am I right? High five!

Thu, 10 Jun 2021 16:27:42 -0500

Trip Conroy

Not a chance, not with the schedule and no proven on-field play to show otherwise

cause we cant play consistent football. Call it the Frost effect.

Come on. Stop posting these silly articles. I’m a huge fan but NOTHING points to that much improvement.

Huskers does not have the will to win close games. They are 2 years away from winning the close games.

I have to see a decent downfield passing game first before I start getting too optimistic.

Wed, 09 Jun 2021 20:41:54 -0400

Danny Spielman

Why would we think this team could win 8 games? I always had rose colored glasses on over the last couple of decades. I took them off and, whew, Steve Pederson screwed us. Prove it to me!!!

Sure why not? He looked fantastic during the spring game. Could have been better but...could get there or come close.

He won’t get 49 targets

I'll reserve judgment until we've seen him consistently come down with catches in traffic over the course of a season. A JD in hand is better than 2 Omar's in the bush.

No clue yet - he's got all the measurements but has yet to be healthy until now. I think key will be can he stay healthy and can he play through minor injuries.
