Steven Bailey

Mike Rileys' bowl record.

Ryan MacKay

New Cornerbacks coach and split duties on special teams will provide better punt and KO coverage. Gives Huskers much needed boost.

Gene Baker

Nebraska has a Good team great coaches and we get better every time we take the field.

Rich Regan

Tennessee has no defense. They allowed 608 yards against Vanderbilt, 704 vs Missouri and 635 vs Kentucky.

Joe Lazure

We should get our injured players healthy. We've been a great team when healthy

Keith Petrie

It depends on the health of the offensive line and Tommy and hey... we're playing in Nashville... nothing like a home field advantage. Just ask the Badgers! Darn... did I say that?

Randy Hill

Huskers match up well against the Vols. If they can contain Dobbs, they will win. GBR

Scott M Goertzen

Were not a bad team, and Tennessee isn't a world beater.

Valerie Gilmore

I don't think the football team wants to sit around all winter with bird feathers in their mouths, look for them to come out and every body say....'WERE THE HELL WAS THIS TEAM ALL YEAR?'

Marty Norris Davis

Both teams have had their ups and downs this season. We have this! Go Big Red!

Michael Peters

I think if we are healed up we can play with anyone in the country.

Stephen Johnson

We have the talent. Time for injuries to heal. Time for the OC to learn how to run the option.

Iowa letdown.

Dan Cubrich

I'll be surprised if we are within 20 points of them by game's end, the way our coaches coach. The whipping we received by an average Iowa team gave me much pessimism about this game.

Jody Acree

I'm nervous because I just watched a replay of the beatdown we took from Iowa. TN has much better athletes.

Dave Scott

mike riley mark banker and danny langsdorf..... enough said... totally out matched....

Pete Volquardsen

terrible finish will carry over to bowl

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.

A B

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!!!

Because Rhule rocks

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.
