The CU loss seemed to tie the Huskers into a knot. IMO once a team suffers a loss like that, it really seems to haunt them throughout the season.

The huge step backwards on offense was the biggest surprise. Special teams was also an unexpected disappointment. My 2020 expectation have been realigned. Just hoping for bowl eligibility.

My hat's off to Minnesota, but the "Sean Watson" (splg?) like offense of the Huskers puzzled me. And the defense to date is nothing we can count on. Specials teams have broken down too. Urgh...

Easiest schedule for the foreseeable future and little improvement evident maybe even regression from last year. very sad

Minnesota was impressive, but my biggest single surprise was Wisconsin QB Jack Coan. The Badgers were going to be a good team, but they became a great team because of the unexpected play of Coan.

I didn't think Gophers could row boats in freezing lakes

It has to fair across the board, from Fordham to Alabama. one monthly stipend for everyone, not just scholarship players. There has to be a limit on how many players all schools should abide by. Determine the national budget and every school must contribute.

Compensation has always been tied to market value. These athletes are worth far more than they're being compensated, and that's been the case for over a century. Hence, they've been ripped off. I support salary, salary cap, and education on how to invest it in 401k style accounts.

Much more controllable, and much more equitable.

Compensation changes the entire dynamic of college athletics, and not in a positive way.

They should be students and NOT professional athletes. If they want to get paid they can go pro. Personally, I believe they should cancel all sports in public schools and colleges though I love our Huskers.

Put myself through school in the 70's. They are getting for exchange of their athletic prowess what I had to work and save for. The two summers after high school I drove alfalfa trucks 12 hours a day 7 days a week. EARN IT!

They already live better than most students. Free room and board, tutors, clothing, and actual education cost.

They are compensated with room and board plus an education. The perks they get as athletes now are unbelievable!!!
