One thing this staff can do is evaluate. Patrick O'brien has a chance to be special at Nebraska, the first true quarterback that we haven't had in a long time. They have HS producers like Spielman and Grimm. If they close out the class with guys like Jackson, Farniok, and Watts, it could be top20

Doug Shonka

This same staff thought Johnny Stanton would be a great college QB. Let's not get over our skis on POB just yet.

It is a little early to tell but right now sort of middle of the pack.

James Traut

Too soon for an accurate estimate but so far very average and no where near the OSU, Michigan, PSU talent projections. NU so far is possibly becoming the Missouri or Okla. State programs of the long ago Big 8 era-- competitive on occasion to win a league title.

Larry Baumann

Nothing but mediocre talent at best which matches Riley's coaching abilities. We will see nothing but 2 star athletes until we get rid of this 62 year old bald headed bum!

Need more Skill Position players and less walk ons. If Nebraska were to play Alabama this September, we would be steam rolled.

Rich Stricklett

Keep losing key players

Sean Fluharty

In order to compete for championships we need to finish in the Top 12-15 year-in, year-out. Barely cracking the Top 25 isn't gonna cut it. We were told that Riley & Co. would be able to snare top recruits with all of the resources at their disposal, but they've been disappointing thus far.

Garret Shaw

We have to get inside the top 20 of recruiting, to get where we need to be.

Visitor

not impressed at all seem to be losing more than winning

Ben Brooks

Very weak at DT and WR

Keith Petrie

Need some good offensive line talent and guys with a mean streak on the field. Add some skill position talent and we're all set. GBR!

Doug Shonka

Lack of success in 2 key areas - DE and OT

Randy Wolf

Losing too many previous commits. Winning is important to recruiting and when the Huskers blow games like the Iowa game that hurts.

“ 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
