I miss the bowls being important.

Jonathon Siminoe

This is the way it's always been, ever since the playoff was created it had 4 so if it ain't broke don't fix it.

Dan Janssen

Let's keep the regular season relevant

Gearld Wolff

Going to eight dilutes the regular season. How many years have there been more than three teams go undefeated? How many times have there been more than 6 even discussed as being the best in the country over an entire season?

Peter Rygol

Doesn't matter what kind of playoff or rating system is in place there will always be controversy from fans & writers who think #5 or #17 or #33 got screwed and left out of the mix. Any more teams involved will take a toll on the regular season and then the extended season. Not every kid goes on to the NFL and many are in fact students.

Too many good teams were left out.

More interest and additional teams rewarded for good seasons.

Husker Garfield

All conferences included no guessing on which 4 are better

Jay Safford

8 teams gives you a true number. The other division do it and it works great. Lets get with the times.

Donald Lee

Allows for hot teams near the end of the season.

Daniel Revas

There were legitimate Teams left out in TCU and Baylor, at least on paper. I think 4 will be a little thin if you have 5 or more unbeaten Power 5 Teams.

Peter Rygol

How many times has there been more than 2 undefeated teams at the end of the season?

Ben Swan

Simple solution... 6 Power Conference Champions (determined by their championship games) PLUS the next 2 top ranked team using BCS formula. IF their from the same conference, so be it. If they're Boise State and Fresno State, SO be it!! This is the max needed.

Given the Huskers’ difficult 2026 football schedule, is it realistic to think 8 wins are possible?

Looking at the schedule, 5-0 on the front end is a definite possibility. Going 3-4 on the backend is doable. Having said that, there's still no consistency with this team, making 5-7 just as much of a possibility.

Schedule is not favorable at all.

Wade Williams

The schedule actually is favorable if you look at not just who we play, but when we play them. Looking at the non con, we'll definitely come out of the gate 3-0, then MSU & MD. We can win those. That would be 5-0. 3-4 on the back end is doable, even if you pencil in IU, OR, & OSU as definite L's.

Robert Lloyd

Never would believe this, but we could come away with only 2-4 wins. I do love the new QB, the new DC coordinator and new OL coach. But no proven RBs, limited personnel in the DL,, Rhule has never learned the run first offense, and we have TOO MANY coaches. A hat on backwards isn't going to help.

Alexanderthegreatandterrible

We saw what we saw last season and that means little hope we can win 5-6 in 2026. Too many new things to know what is going to happen but easy to assume 8 wins is out of the question.

AK-460Mag Nurse

I hate to be this negative but I think we'll be lucky to make a bowl game 😔 Between not being able to beat a ranked opponent, the coaching carousel, no proven QB or RB and just sucking the last 25 years I'm starting to lose hope and lose faith in this staff. GBR 😭

Edward Payne

I'm hopeful, but six wins seems most likely until the the team proves itself with a new QB and rebuilt lines.

Andy Redick

Not possible. Lost our best player to the NFL draft. New OL coach and DC. Major rebuild. Scary to think this is year 4 and NU is talking about a major rebuild. Rhule sells the Kool Aid hard in the off season. GBR!!!

Nebraska Right to Life

QB turnover machine. No D tackles. No RBs. Good Luck. 6-6 is the absolute ceiling. 5-7 is what it will be.

Does Anthony Colandrea’s skill set change how Nebraska can design its offense?

YES have QB option run pass

Robert Lloyd

He seems more than just a mobile QB, he plays with abandon and spunk. Why wasn't he here right out of high school? But how could we have lost Ekeler? Have we turned into the dumbest program in America?

Ruthie Patterson

Mobile QB

Michael Gross

Running quarterback opens ton on new plays.

Scott Ferguson

Mobility is a good thing to have. Opens up a few things.

John Haller

It better or Holgorsen will need to be the next firing

Joe Hegarty

I sure hope so.

Alexanderthegreatandterrible

Of course, it should since we had a statue QB, once Lateef was in the offense changed to suit his skill set, and so it follows that Dana will tweak the offense to suit Colandea's skill set and with a new o-line coach changes come.
