Considering that roughly 90 teams would be "tough" for Nebraska these days, I think you have to schedule tough teams. There wouldn't be a lot to choose from otherwise. Those lower level cupcakes are being scheduled by other teams too.

Play non-conference but not FBS schools

Joe Nigro

Need to be tested before big 10 begins. Should not be afraid of anyone.

The NFL has a pre season and nebraska should look at it like that. Get the players ready for the season. Conference play. Its a good way to build depth and get experience. They play toigh enough teams in the Big10 not to have to play them outside of the Conference.

Roy makes a valid point below. I also want to add that until the SEC goes to 9 conference games AND the selection committee starts putting more weight into the strength of schedule, we should keep scheduling cupcakes for non-conference games.

Nebraska needs time to develop game ready players before heading into the big ten.

The alignment of administration to restoring order of Nebraska now in the BIG is incredible. This choice of a young, competent outsider is consistent with the vision. The Nebraska magic will have him only vacationing in Florida. Get behind him, Huskers.

Honestly it will take time, when you are used to someone like Greg Sharpe it will take time and assessment before you can accept another voice, especially someone outside the Husker Nation circle which can be hard to accept anyway. But if someone puts their all into it then over time can work.

Kelly Maas

do not like his voice. It has no depth IMO.

Trae Taylor isn’t in this class. Poor Dayton Raiola is taking unnecessary heat for not being his brother but he’s great. Somehow, they need to find that one guy in every class that puts himself out there to draw in other recruits. They just haven’t found that dude yet in this class and it shows.

Nope, no trouble whatsoever.

The tide doesn’t turn on the loss of one player unless that player is a 5 star QB.

This is just part of football.

Alexanderthegreatandterrible

Not at this point. We have many options with the transfer portal and still with plenty of recruits that haven't found a home yet.
