I have to think the defense has learned many thing about themselves and it will benefit us when we get to November. I'm hoping!

Richard Davison

Because the defense is moving in the right direction, and the offense is building depth!

Hakam Shara

With a few key losses were still in the hunt for a national championship bid. Its not gonna happen but whenever you can say that the glass cant be half empty..

Stephen Johnson

Knew the defense was young. They are growing and the offense is getting better. When Taylor is back, great.

John Cornett

Defense is showing promise. Martinez is getting healthy. Legends division looks wide open.

Even with a better defense, an injured Taylor Martinez keeps the glass half empty... (Photo: AP) Story: http://bit.ly/18eqWAI

Need to be winning championships and earning scholarships.

Ron Rangel

defense maybe improving but so are other teams O. time will tell, until the D can consistently stop the run against "quality" teams, its smoke and mirrors

Ronald Pfeifer

just can't be optimistic

Will Cortez Mills be a game-changer at wide receiver in 2025?

NU needs a freshman to have a big time impact. Hopefully this is the one.

I've given up any hope of anyone being an impact player until they prove they can actually perform. Too many "BUSTS", including the team, overall.

Roland St.Denis

Having watched him several times now, he needs to develop physically, and even more importantly, must focus on the mental game. He has too many lapses at the high school level. That will be magnified in the B1G

John Hoie

The only recent freshman I thought would be an impact player was Raiola. Barney was a pleasant surprise.

Why not... at least we can hope during the off-season. We are Nebraskans after all.

Michael Hoffart

Next season would be the season to do it. Pretty good set up schedule wise and we SHOULD have the talent to make it happen.

James Key

At least 8 Wins if no glaring issues.

1. look at MR history. 2. Look at how MR's aggressiveness at improving coaching and roster. 3. the team has been learning how to win and we are positioned for a break through. 4. Dylan Raiola!!!

Joe Hegarty

Passing game will click.

David Dahlkoetter

Better depth. Offensive line needs to improve and will Defense looks awesome. Qb play will be better. Better widouts.

James McDermott

The schedule favors the huskers. The team seems to finally have the finishing attitude

Mike O

Yes. In fact, NU will win 11 games next year. But 3 of the wins will be moral victories. Final record: 8 wins, 3 moral victories, 2 losses.

I can't do it! I can't say it. Husker fans have been burned too many times. PROVE IT FIRST! GBR!

Isaiah Skrdla

We replaced 3 coordinators and basically lost our d-line. I haven’t seen any evidence that our o-line will be good next year. We also lost most of our running back room. We’re probably not going to be much better next year than this year.

Dave Levesque

I've been let down too many times.

Roger Shriver

If Coach Ruhl had made more changes after year 1 (OC, special teams) I would be more optimistic for year 3. But after three games, extra practices, and a bowl game (barely) this year, I haven't seen much to make me think things will be that much better next year.
