Nebraska's defense has been trending up and our front line will do their job allowing the LBs and secondary to step up.

I think Nebraska's run defense is much better this year. I worry about the pass defense.

Far too many "analysts" under-estimate NU's defense. ANY team can be beaten on any day.

they'd better! I think Nebraska has the edge in the passing Game and Special Teams. depending on Ameer's condition I'd say we're even in the running game. As far as Defense...DB's and Safety's we've got the edge. Backers and D Line Need to come in there with an Attitude! Hit the Badgers Hard and make them Hurt with that cold weather. GBR!

This time around as opposed to 2012 we are light years ahead in team speed enough that if they are stupid enough to try that sweep again? everytime they try it, it will result in loss of yardage. Wiscy is slow as hell as a team. Wiscy is not fast enough to beat us on the edge or anywhere on the field period

I love my Huskers and truly hope they bring their A Game and win. With that said, they've made it real clear, the last couple of years, that when on the big stage, they can't quite measure up and usually lose in embarrassing fashion. I fear Saturday will be no different. Still hoping they'll win though. GBR!!!

Same thing for the 7th season and every "big game". Nothing willl change the fans and media's perception until a Bo Pelini coached team proves it on the field. Nothing this year has demonstrated anything has changed. Nebraska's best doesn't show up week after week and there is no sign of consistent improvement. Take Ohio State as an example, they have improved significantly thru this season while Nebraska has been the same for 7 seasons. Isn't that at some level coaching? Where is the accountability of the coaches to demonstrate an ability to take this team to a higher level?

Recent history has proven that Nebraska doesn't perform well under the bright lights against the big boys. Until they prove me wrong, I'll continue to be pessimistic about their chances in big games.

even in the loss to Northwestern Gordon managed over 250 yards on the ground. We won'st stop their run. But if we can keep the out of the end zone and limit big plays through the air it won't matter.

If they are coming to NU "now". It can only help. Maybe run a "slanting" defense and catch them "off guard"!!! Stuff the "run"!!! GBR!!!

Only up from here. Good to have a system for a team and not just a few players.

On the defense I think you will increased intensity, like 2024. The offense line coaching should have been changed sooner, at least Rhule got someone with experience and proven quality development & execution.

Just not confident in Matt anymore. Why he makes millions of $ and has now had 7 coordinators and it's everybody else's fault and he keeps his job?. I've been a fan since the early 60s and now am more concerned about the program than ever before.

Does Emmett Johnson's departure mean Nebraska needs a running back from the portal for 2026?

Yes - The roster lacks proven producers.

No - Ample talent is already on board.

We have talent in the room. They will have the same learning curve that Emmett had. He was an average back at the beginning of last season and look how he blossomed. That said, if a solid back is available, take him of course

Nebraska is a 3rd Tier team in the BIG 10 and an after thought nationally and our expectations for recruiting should reflect that. With the powers in the BIG 10 nationally Nebraska's "good old days..." are just. Swept into the dust bin of what once was...Sorry, but...it's the truth as I see it.
