Considering we don't have an identity for the offense, coupled with new coaches this has to be the biggest question mark going into 2015. QB questions, running backs, receivers and now likely TE's in the mix it will be interesting what gets rolled out on September 5th.

Gene Baker

Who will be the next starting QB? This is the biggest question the Huskers have this season.

Matt Maxwell

Defense will be simplified and will let the horses run. Offense is about timing, and comfort in a system.

Seems that Riley and staff know more about offense than defense. Not sure what to make of the defense, but I felt that the Pelini ran defense required NFL caliber talent, and it was much too complicated. If it's simplified, I think our defense can be a strength. I just have more questions on this side of the ball scheme-wise. Offense I'm completely optimistic.

Tony Dahlgren

Too thin at linebackers and defensive end.

Stephen Johnson

Because the D coordinator has a poor history of performance

Faye Cook

Great defense wins game. More so than great offencse. The gret defense keeps th e other team out of th end zone.No scoring against your team.

Stacy A Rodenbaugh

You can have an average offense and still win a championship as long as you have a great defense! Defense wins championships!

Nebraska is known over the years to have struggled against running Quarterbacks, they have to make sure that doesn’t happen today!!!

Robert Lloyd

I think our OL is the most problematic thing, not Emmett Johnson. If MSU gets on a roll and stops Dylan then we are in trouble.

Mitch Bronston

Any time you stop the run, you make a team one dimensional

the OL has to play better. the running backs can't run if there aren't any holes to run into. they have to protect the QB, 1 or 2 sacks are acceptable, but they can't give up 7 again.

I believe Coach Rhule and his staff have the ability to get the team to understand their shortcomings in the last game and will show them how to overcome the obstacles that Michigan presented. GO BIG RED!!! 🎈🎈🎈

Robert Lloyd

I believe we have three coordinators who will get the job done.

winning 4 big 10 games in a row very difficult with 2 away

Tim Michelsen

15 is stationary needs to help out line. He is a defensive line dream

Betty ONeill

We have to play and coach better

AK-460Mag Nurse

I doubt it, but I'd be happy with 3/4 at this point. Hope I'm wrong though.

Bill Petty

Can't get stops when it counts the most. Can't move ball when it counts the most. O line and D line have been and continue to be a problem. I am not hopeful going forward.

George mcdaniel

They will go 1 and 3

Richard Johnson

We have a DC that can't adjust on the fly.

Sporty361

Our line play is mediocre. We have skill players but our line play on both sides will be our limiting factor. We need to find toughness for 4 quarters. In this age of celebrating every yard, we lose rock hard toughness.

Roy Katskee

Football games are won with offensive and defensive lines. We have neither.

John Reeb

Our O-Line & D-Line are simply not good enough to get the job done.
