TCU's defense sucks ... NU HAS a physical and fast defense .... that'll be the difference in this game ... we'll pound the rock on them and Sims will throw more short and quick passes so I say 27-23 NU

College ball still emotional. Colorado coming off big win over a questionable defense, NU coming off winnable loss against good defense and a better offense than is being talked about. GBR

If we play good defense and run the football with controlling the clock we should come out with a victory!

I would like to believe that our D can come up big and keep their playmakers from gashing us. If we can get pressure on their QB I think we stand a good chance. Our run game should be able to churn clock and keep the ball out of their hands.

There was no D in the CU-TCU game. I see our D standing up. Only question will turnovers/penalties get us again. GBR

Game 2 and Colorado will be very cocky beating a very overrated TCU. Our defense in all essence is much stronger than TCU.

Huskers learn from 1st game and execute fundamentals better. Will up the run game against a porous D line and burn clock.

Same old sad story. Huskers will make a host of dumb mistakes and stumble their way to another loss. CU 38 - Huskers 7.

Because the team room doesn't have any talent.

In all fairness, Deion's room won't be at Colorado if they hit in the 9 win room this year. So there's that....room.

Coaching room changes but the game results room never changes. That means that the team room is the problem. No talent. Until the talent room changes the results room is always going to be the same......room.

When did room replace the letter s? RBs, TEs, QBs. RB room. TE room. QB room. OL room. Kicking room.....room room.

Or any rooms for that matter.

Buffs by 4TDs, after watching the Minnesota game and lack of offense and our Quarterback play, I don’t see a bowl game in our near future.

Our offense just isn't ready yet. The defense might keep it from being a blowout. 31 - 17 Buffs...

Their offense vs. our defense is going to score more points than our offense vs. their defense.

Not sure about that so I say using that logic it’s a tossup, though who would have thought Prime’s approach would work so quickly. Very interesting experiment.

We are thin everywhere and nearly one-dimensional on offense. Hartzog got beat badly on Minnesota's 4th down TD. Speed kills. CU wins, just because we're Nebraska.

Huskers look like the same anemic self. Not sure how we overcome the 20+ years of dilution. Buffs will trounce us.

First game we showed we still snatch defeat from the jaws of victory and so I do not expect anything different until they prove different, Buffs by 14

Buffs skill players and NU propensity for turnovers: 35-31 CU (Hope I'm wrong)

I watched Colorado / TCU. Colorado has way too much talent, and speed. QB and receivers are out of this world. Colorado Defense is suspect which leads to Nebraska's only hope. Colorado by 30.

Buffs have two many playmakers with speed. NU offense lacks consistency and turnover prone

Even if the defense plays a good game and keeps the score close, the offense will blow it somehow. CU 34, NU 16

The Duke room is hanging tough with the Clemson room right now.

Yes the offense room has major issues. The defense room won't hold up in the high altitude even though they are in much better shape compared to last year's room.

The Husker offense is currently a hot mess. They will not be able to outscore the Buffs.

Because we have no tight end room. Or no room room for that matter. Why can't they just leave the room off and call it tight ends? Does each position group actually have a room?

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.

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

The only recent freshman I thought would be an impact player was Raiola. Barney was a pleasant surprise.

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!!!

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.

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.

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.
