I miss the old rivalries but wouldn't be in favor of it unless Mizzou came back with us

Why would we even consider going back to that unstable Texas driven conference! We are in a stable conference now and havev the opportunity to climb back into the who's who of college football with our new staff and current leadership. We need to ride this ship and see where it takes us now!

While I miss playing some of the remaining members and I will always recall the good 'ol days, the conference is no more stable today than it was when we left. As long as there is Texas, there will be instability.

B1G is a better fit for us and is a much stronger conference, leaving now would be like running away scared with our tail between our leg. No way, we're here to compete!

B1G is a fair conference where every university is heard and all members generally agree or agree to disagree without putting any one institution at a competitive disadvantage. The Big 12 will always have to contend with the fact that someday Texas may leave the conference.

A return to a very flawed conference will not bring back the Husker glory days. We need to stick with the strength of the Big 10 and adapt the program to once again perform at championship levels.

The money is better here and we don't have to deal with Texas or the other clowns that took Texas' side in all of those 11-1 votes. I feel a bit for the KU, KSU and ISU fans, but to hell with the Big XII.

What makes one think anything would be different if they did go back, wasn't the reason Nebraska changed to begin with was the way they were treated by the Texas schools? Besides, the academic standards are higher in the Big 10, after-all, isn't that the main reason of the college?

The academic respect, and big ten money are going to kepp us here forever. The good ole boys of Texas still control the Big 12, and we are done with that rodeo.

if you were married, and found out your better half was taking your money out of your savings, and trying to lie about it too, would you want them back?

At this point there is no reason to return. I personally don't care for the Big Ten in the first place or its teams. The security, finacial resources and their network make sense to stay.

I hated the big 12. They ended the OU vs NU rivalry by making it an every 2 yr gm. That's the biggest reason to leave &never look back

Big 10 brings more security. Big 12 is all about Texas. Why would we go back to that?

We are so close to turning this ship around. The new coach hasn't even coached his first game and his recruiting class is better than any class Bo ever had. We should of made changes 2 years ago after the FU from Bo to the NEB fans. Win the Big 10 and your playing for a National Title!

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?

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.

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
