We need to run the ball & hide our defense. We have to get 3rd & 1, 3rd & 3! If we had done that we don't have to rely on a weak D

A nebraska offense that cannot convert 3rd and 1 to 3 must be fixed.

QB needs to go through the receiver progressions when passing. Some of our guys were WIDE OPEN at times.

Offense must find an identity. Not a bad start though.

We scored enough to win but giving up over 500 yards really hurt.

Same old nu. All we hear about is 94-97. Well it's 2015. This staff won't be around for more than 5 -.500 years. Then we start over. Nu is an after thought. Nobody talks about us anymore. Nobody.

No pressure on the quarterback, bad pass coverage way to soft..

Too many big plays and not enough pressure on QB's.

Toss up, but we need to be great in one area and DL is the best shot. We were disappointing in this area considering the expectations.

NU did not defend the pass well enough, The corner backs need help and cannot stop 6'5 ends when they are less the 6'0.

Is it reasonable to consider Nebraska a potential playoff team in 2025?

Qb. Oline. Offense could be very good. Back 7 on d should be good Concerns at rb depth and unknowns on interiour d line.

They are as much a potential playoff team as Arizona State and Indiana were last year. There is no harm is fans dreaming big. A team with a recent history like Nebraska is going to put it together this year. Why not the Huskers?

Just wishful thinking but I believe the talent is there. We will need a few breaks but it is possible.

They have a schedule that gets to the year 3 Matt Rhule 10 wins. If they can hang with Penn St. then they could be in the conversation as a 10-2, 11-1 team.

So tired of delusional preseason talk. How about a winning conference record and a bowl win.

NU has not been able to recruit top notch players. The media has led fans to believe that 3 star players can be molded into 4 and 5 stars. That dog don’t hunt?

We simply don't have the level of talent needed to reach the playoff. Achieving more wins that last year is a more realistic goal.

Anything can happen, but up until now, Rhule hasn't shown that he can get the job done. I hope I'm wrong, but I just can't by the hype. Show me on the field.

They haven’t done anything on the field to warrant that expectation. But there is nothing wrong with the team setting it as a goal and striving to reach that goal.

Immanuel Kant would say no, but he had a very strict definition of reason. I can only imagine him pooh-poohing the Huskers because Rhule is compulsed to pass the ball on clear running downs. Afraid to actually hand the ball to the fullback on 3rd and 1. And instead is in the shotgun. NO THEY KANT!

Thry’ll be better this year, but I think 9-3 or 8-4 are likely which keeps them out of contention this year. My hope is that by year 4 under Rhule will finally get them ibto the playoff picture

They need to prove they belong. Still to ,many players on the squad that played on bad teams and don't know how to win yet.
