We shouldn't overlook any team, but Indiana should not be a toss-up. We should dominate.

I must admit I'm a bit concerned about this game. IU will score their points and if Nebraska's offense isn't hitting on all cylinders, it could be a problem. I'm cautiously optimistic.

Uncertainties at NU

Alan Blackburn

Red Nation will put it all together against IU !

David Cassiday

IU can score on anyone, and our D has suffered huge losses at DT, has no proven pass rushers, and a back 7 that finished around 125th in pass defense. A win here will require a UCLA style gameplan, executed at a high level.

Jerry Williams

They will be better than one might expect they OSU a fight last year.

Indiana took Ohio State to the 4th quarter last year. they aren't the Kansas Wildcats and we definitely shouldn't overlook them. not in our current state at any rate.

Rizeabuv Yorzelf

Because we are THAT good.

David Lenzen

weather is always as issue for Big 10 road games and this staff hasn't shown they can gameplan for bad weather

Steve Walker

You cannot take any team for granted. Especially when you look at how bad our pass rush and backend were last season. We may be much improved or we may not be. IU throws well in an explosive offense. I think N will respect IU and bring their best. I think NU will win, but it is not a given.

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.

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!!!

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.
