I think it should be 16. Champ from each conference and 5 at large berths.

it brings out better parity... It lets the none power 5 teams show their power and gives them a chance to prove they are the best. It gives it a Cinderella story effect....

Although its has drawbacks, most importantly extending the season to 16 games (NFL!) for championship teams, it would assure that no deserving team would be left out solely based on conf. affiliation

I really think it should be a 16 team playoff but eight is better than 4 or 6! Put the 2 best teams from every conference and let's see who comes out the winner.

I think it needs to be 16 teams like the lower divisions...

You will always have a power 5 school left out with current format. 5 conference winners s/b automatic with 3 at large. Pandora's box is open, embrace it.

After watching the NCAA basketball & baseball tourneys, football needs to have an 8-team playoff. Two reasons; so non-power five teams have a chance and (2) there are 5 power conferences, not four.

So teams like UCF can’t be left out.

Although it would take away games from conferences most want to see a robust competition for a national champion, including other than the power five conferences.

The move to an 8-team playoff is all about generating more TV money, not about identifying the best team. The present system, for all its faults, is the best balance of revenue and quality.

Four is enough. If 8, why not 16, or for that matter 32? Regardless of the number, those left out will say they were robbed.

to many games for the players and no guarantee the process would be better than it is now

If they are coming to NU "now". It can only help. Maybe run a "slanting" defense and catch them "off guard"!!! Stuff the "run"!!! GBR!!!

Only up from here. Good to have a system for a team and not just a few players.

On the defense I think you will increased intensity, like 2024. The offense line coaching should have been changed sooner, at least Rhule got someone with experience and proven quality development & execution.

Just not confident in Matt anymore. Why he makes millions of $ and has now had 7 coordinators and it's everybody else's fault and he keeps his job?. I've been a fan since the early 60s and now am more concerned about the program than ever before.

Does Emmett Johnson's departure mean Nebraska needs a running back from the portal for 2026?

Yes - The roster lacks proven producers.

No - Ample talent is already on board.

We have talent in the room. They will have the same learning curve that Emmett had. He was an average back at the beginning of last season and look how he blossomed. That said, if a solid back is available, take him of course

Nebraska is a 3rd Tier team in the BIG 10 and an after thought nationally and our expectations for recruiting should reflect that. With the powers in the BIG 10 nationally Nebraska's "good old days..." are just. Swept into the dust bin of what once was...Sorry, but...it's the truth as I see it.
