The Huskers hung around in games last season and should be better this year. http://athlonsports.com/college-football/5-reasons-why-nebraska-big-ten-wests-sleeper-team-2016

Seriously?? Anyone thinking another year with the same coaching staff won't help a team is just hating on the program. The disease of the transition is mostly gone. It certainly won't be an undefeated season and a National Championship but it will definitely be a good year!

the answer depends upon if the staff learned anything in their first year. Not convinced that they did.

Last years performance did not leave me feeling as though there is much hope for this year with the people who went pro or graduated.

Stephen Douglas

They are a proven 500 tlstaff. OSU never did anything great

Isaiah Skrdla

A pro-style offense requires too much coveted tallent for Nebraska to truly be successful running it. Alabama and USC can recruit that tallent but nebraska never has and in my opinion we never will. We need to be a niche team on the cutting edge of a new system if we want to return to greatness.

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.

Roland St.Denis

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

John Hoie

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

Why not... at least we can hope during the off-season. We are Nebraskans after all.

Michael Hoffart

Next season would be the season to do it. Pretty good set up schedule wise and we SHOULD have the talent to make it happen.

James Key

At least 8 Wins if no glaring issues.

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!!!

Passing game will click.

Better depth. Offensive line needs to improve and will Defense looks awesome. Qb play will be better. Better widouts.

James McDermott

The schedule favors the huskers. The team seems to finally have the finishing attitude

Mike O

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.

I can't do it! I can't say it. Husker fans have been burned too many times. PROVE IT FIRST! GBR!

Isaiah Skrdla

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.

Dave Levesque

I've been let down too many times.

Roger Shriver

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.
