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

jerry williams

Moe footbasll always good. It might settle a few more questions.

Kim R. Fandry

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....

Don Scott

ALABAMA CAN'T EVEN WIN IT'S CONFERENCE BUT GOES TO PLAYOFFS?????

Mas Shara

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

Rich Leffler

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.

Dave Ronnekamp

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

Greg Conradt

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.

Kelly Cordes

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.

Brad Bredenkamp

So teams like UCF can’t be left out.

Workplace Stars

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.

Can't wait for our first 3 loss MNC

Darryl Branting

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.

Mike McCord

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.

John Mcvay

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

I have been waiting 30+ years for this, All Red looks Bad Ass!!! GBR!!

Thomas Wright

“ GO BIG RED “ 🏈 ❗️

Steve Sorensen

Because they look awesome!

Kit Goodwin

We are Big Red!

Christopher Benson

Change is good.

James Schneider

Red baby Red!

Bob Crisler

I don't like it, but as long as we're going to play around with nonsense alternate uniforms, the boys might as well learn wi win in them.

PJ SAid

Why the Hell Not? God Bless everyone. Lets enjoy the game, get our minds off what is happening in the world. GBR

Kevin Ruppert

Because we as fans should let the team wear whatever makes them excited and quit bringing up times 30 plus years ago like the uniforms had anything to do with how the games turned out.

Joe Putjenter

If that's what the kids wanted, I'm cool with it. I don't like it myself

The Redcoats were intimidating as is and didn't change to all Red on skirmish day.

Joe Nigro

Traditional is much more intimidating. One color uniforms make players look smaller (except for all white.)

Joe Hegarty

We love the Red & White

Roy Bishop

Alternates only for night games.

Roger Moellendorf

NU always loses when they wear all red or all black.

huskerdenton@yahoo.com

Why?

Danny Brown

It's too much, we look like popsicles

McV0id

Matching colors no bueno

Ron Graf

Too many losses wearing all red

Robert Lloyd

Bad choice and ugly. For those old enough to remember, we got Irvin Fryar out of New Jersey because he looked better in our uniforms than the ugly Penn State uniforms. Why change for the sake of change when you have the better all ready in place. Sounds like the management of Cracker Barrel.

John Sheeley

Just not a fan. Makes it look like Indiana

Ron Petersen

Looks like pajamas.

Is the 34½-point spread against Akron about right?

Because the poll was still open on the Monday after the game... And I could not see the percentages without voting.

Brad Bredenkamp

They have the talent, they need to take the step of winning the games they should win in the manner they should win them. Don’t play down to the level of the opponent.

PJ SAid

It better be...defense front should be fixed and Akron Defense should allow for deeper passes. At HOME at NIGHT!!! #GBR

Patrick O'Brien

We haven't seen enough of what this team can really do to give that kind of spread.

William Osler

They are not a good team yet. Much work to do.

Alan Portsche

To many issues to fix

VAHuskerFan

There is NOWAY they will cover, there just not that good, atleast at this point.

David Weaver

Not convinced yet

Melvyn Halfon

I do not believe some of the glaring problems with the run defense have not been fixed, and Akron will exploit them.

Danny Brown

The D-line against Cincy wasn't overly impressive, our run game was relatively unproductive, and we had some lucky breaks (even if good play contributed). The next two weeks will be important for closing gaps; I don't think we'll wallop Akron quite by 30+ points. I'm guessing we end up 17

Ed Starke

It's hard to beat any team by that big of a margin.

McV0id

Defense needs more time to cook

George mcdaniel

Around 21 points
