Nebraska is far behind the 8 ball here. If it is measured i anticipate this will help retain more attendance in to the second half. especially if the game is not competative.

Ron

Half the fun of attending games is watching all the other ppl make fools of themselves!

First OFF, I love BEER. I know beer was in stadium pre covid, when thermos, etc were allowed. Often folks showed up drunk. BUT it was not a big problem (student section, etc.) But alcohol has gotten me into trouble and expect it to do the at games. Boo - wait til after game.

Kelly Maas

I hate the idea of alcohol in Memorial Stadium. It will just lead to obnoxious drunks.

Rob Abel

I've seen far too many obnoxious drunks at sporting events. And I like a beer as much as the next guy.

Rob Abel

I've seen so many obnoxious drunks ruin the game experience for many families. And I like a beer as much as anyone.

Mike Schmidt

Probably can't do much more damage than the portal!

The redReiter

There are enough drunk people in the stadium already.

Eric Franzen

I'm worried college games will resemble NFL games, with belligerent, vulgar fans everywhere you turn. College games need to remain a family-friendly atmosphere, where parents shouldn't be hesitant to take children.

I"m not looking forward to it. I already have people sitting around me that either come snockered or bring their little bottles of booze and bother us or even opposing fans by making smart remarks to them. It will not make things better. Dennis

Scott Ferguson

Booze seems to make some people speak before they think. I would guess they will have to increase their security guards and purchase more zip tie cuffs.

Proof is in the pudding. Actions speak louder than words. Show me don't tell me. I will let you know after Black Friday

Is it reasonable to consider Nebraska a potential playoff team in 2025?

Qb. Oline. Offense could be very good. Back 7 on d should be good Concerns at rb depth and unknowns on interiour d line.

Terrence Smith

With their schedule, they might be able to make it this year.

Chester Ogborn

They are as much a potential playoff team as Arizona State and Indiana were last year. There is no harm is fans dreaming big. A team with a recent history like Nebraska is going to put it together this year. Why not the Huskers?

Joe Nigro

Just wishful thinking but I believe the talent is there. We will need a few breaks but it is possible.

George mcdaniel

It had to do with mindset confidence and luck

Matt

They have a schedule that gets to the year 3 Matt Rhule 10 wins. If they can hang with Penn St. then they could be in the conversation as a 10-2, 11-1 team.

So tired of delusional preseason talk. How about a winning conference record and a bowl win.

Charlie Knapper

Haven't proven anything, yet.

Brad Mcbride

They are a 6-6 football team until proven otherwise.

Chin Sin Chong

No on field results to support that yet. History told us talks are simply empty statements

Roy Katskee

NU has not demonstrated that they belong.

Melvyn Halfon

NU has not been able to recruit top notch players. The media has led fans to believe that 3 star players can be molded into 4 and 5 stars. That dog don’t hunt?

Kevin Hubbell

Let's not put the cart before the horse! 7 or 8 wins maybe.

Joe Hegarty

That's crazy alright. Just hope they make a bowl game again.

Suicide Slush Puppie

We simply don't have the level of talent needed to reach the playoff. Achieving more wins that last year is a more realistic goal.

Bill Petty

Anything can happen, but up until now, Rhule hasn't shown that he can get the job done. I hope I'm wrong, but I just can't by the hype. Show me on the field.

Eric Picquet

They haven’t done anything on the field to warrant that expectation. But there is nothing wrong with the team setting it as a goal and striving to reach that goal.

Mike O

Immanuel Kant would say no, but he had a very strict definition of reason. I can only imagine him pooh-poohing the Huskers because Rhule is compulsed to pass the ball on clear running downs. Afraid to actually hand the ball to the fullback on 3rd and 1. And instead is in the shotgun. NO THEY KANT!

Bob Flanagan

Thry’ll be better this year, but I think 9-3 or 8-4 are likely which keeps them out of contention this year. My hope is that by year 4 under Rhule will finally get them ibto the playoff picture

Richard Johnson

They need to prove they belong. Still to ,many players on the squad that played on bad teams and don't know how to win yet.

Greg Engel

I just can’t let myself get my hopes up too high. I am hopeful for a good season, though

Dan Larsen

Let's consider a few "bigger" bowl game victories first.... way to early!

Steve Slezak

Too soon
