Liked what I saw.

Didn't get man handled like last year. S&C is finally paying dividends. We still need to clean up things in the area of penalties and execution.

Team looked bigger. Offensive line seems stronger. A few playmakers on both sides. Not real crazy about playing so soft in defensive backfield but guess they did not want to get beat deep. Hopeful!

Effort - they played hard till the end, which they haven't always done the last two years.

We saw for the first time in years our players showing they can play with anybody. We need some running backs, but then we are good to go.

Steve Walker

Progress was there in terms of tackling, O/D line play, good offense decision making, and overall depth. No progress in turnovers and bad penalties and being our own worst enemy.

I see hope. Let's add consistency to hope and we should turn some heads this year. We need to stop the mental errors (time mgmt, fumbles, penalties). There is no margin of error. Fix these =Progress

Even the announcers who normally hate us saw progress. Nebraska won the trenches half of the time, offense got north and south quick, linebacker play was solid finally. This team is much improved

Could have been 38-31. Should have been 45-31. But was 52-17. For every 10 good snaps there's always one drive killer. Glad that the offense went North to south and limited the sideline play. GBR

Marty Wilcox

It's all about the big uglies in the trenches, and they have vastly improved.

Mon, 26 Oct 2020 21:31:48 -0500

Tucker Mcmann

Progress is there but quite honestly the celebrating of moral victories against upper echelon teams is getting a bit tired. 52 -17 is 52-17. Its a thrashing.

Hard to tell getting blown out yet again. I'll hope to see the improvement against lesser competition that will hopefully result in wins.

time to win close games . Defense paves way to 8 wins

Mark Wane

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

Nat Warren

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

Thu, 10 Jun 2021 16:44:27 -0400

Curt Marquis

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

David McClymont

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.

Gale Cogswell

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

Sun, 13 Jun 2021 12:57:09 -0400

Randy Weitzenkamp

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.

Douglas Norman

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.

Ryan Moss

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

Thu, 10 Jun 2021 12:06:53 -0400

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.

David Weaver

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.
