I don't even understand this question, Ohio State is a better team, a better program, and a national power. Of course I would rather see Nebraska beat them.

Grambo🌽🏈☠️😎

I hate Ohio Fn State

Bob Berg

Picked Ohio state. More national exposure. And, we'll have Iowa s number soon enough.

Paul F Edwards

Iowa won on the last play last year. Which means this year we should beat them just because of improvement. But if we beat Ohio State, that will get so much more national attention, and respect.

Lyle Martin

Ohio is the big picture, Iowa is secondary

Colbey Hicks

If you beat Ohio State you'll should be able to beat Iowa.

Rich Tatum

They have a larger national presence with the fans & media.

Duke Fredricksen

Duh!! It's not just about the west, it's about the whole conference. Take down the current king and recruiting will skyrocket.

Mauro Peterson

Big win early in the season giving the team confidence and momentum.

George Hautzinger

If you can beat Ohio State, the national press will notice.

Richard Johnson

If we get OSU, then Iowa should not be a tougher win. Besides, who cares about Iowa?

Mauro Peterson

Haha! I like that

Losing to Iowa would be a worse loss then losing to Ohio State.

Alex Perry

We need to shut their mouths!!!

Valerie Gilmore

the road to Indy goes through IC, in this case for Iowa, the Ditch Chickens will be greeted in Lincoln, time to start taking control of the West. GBR!!

Mitch Bronston

This will determine the B1G west...if it comes to this...we'll get another crack at OSU in the champ game

Arlis Bartus

Don't want to see another loss to Iowa for the next 25 years

Tom Gilliand

To get to the Big 10 playoff.

Victor Beason

I agree beat Iowa meet OSU and beat them in the Championship if I have to make a choice. Beat them both no discussion.

Steve Vastine

Iowa is the stepping stone to Ohio State. Tired of hearing them pipe up in this border town.

Randy Weitzenkamp

1. Wins in the division mean a lot more that cross division wins. 2. On 11/29, Iowa is likely one of the teams in the B1G west battling for the division title. 3. I live 2 mile from the Iowa border.

Rowdy Cain

this is a no brainer answer...... Iowas in our division, A loss to Ohios St doesn't hurt as bad because they are normally ranked higher and in a different division and we play earlier in the year.

K. L. Krofta

Nebraska needs to get back to the level where we don't even talk about beating teams like Iowa each year. This game should become an automatic "W" each year for the Huskers.

Jason Coorts

Absolutely nauseated by the string of losses to the Hawkeyes. At least Pellini could beat them. Can stomach one more loss to OSU for now.

Edward Massey

A must win for huskers...will be exciting to see.

Arlie Rauch

It's necessary to beat them to win the west. Then go and beat the OSU.

David Steffen

because both wasn't an option

Carl Wiest

It's turned to a nasty rivalry and we need to put a boot on their throat.

I have been waiting 30+ years for this, All Red looks Bad Ass!!! GBR!!

Thomas Wright

“ GO BIG RED “ 🏈 ❗️

Steve Sorensen

Because they look awesome!

Kit Goodwin

We are Big Red!

Christopher Benson

Change is good.

James Schneider

Red baby Red!

Bob Crisler

I don't like it, but as long as we're going to play around with nonsense alternate uniforms, the boys might as well learn wi win in them.

PJ SAid

Why the Hell Not? God Bless everyone. Lets enjoy the game, get our minds off what is happening in the world. GBR

Kevin Ruppert

Because we as fans should let the team wear whatever makes them excited and quit bringing up times 30 plus years ago like the uniforms had anything to do with how the games turned out.

Joe Putjenter

If that's what the kids wanted, I'm cool with it. I don't like it myself

The Redcoats were intimidating as is and didn't change to all Red on skirmish day.

Joe Nigro

Traditional is much more intimidating. One color uniforms make players look smaller (except for all white.)

Joe Hegarty

We love the Red & White

Roy Bishop

Alternates only for night games.

Roger Moellendorf

NU always loses when they wear all red or all black.

huskerdenton@yahoo.com

Why?

Danny Brown

It's too much, we look like popsicles

McV0id

Matching colors no bueno

Ron Graf

Too many losses wearing all red

Robert Lloyd

Bad choice and ugly. For those old enough to remember, we got Irvin Fryar out of New Jersey because he looked better in our uniforms than the ugly Penn State uniforms. Why change for the sake of change when you have the better all ready in place. Sounds like the management of Cracker Barrel.

John Sheeley

Just not a fan. Makes it look like Indiana

Ron Petersen

Looks like pajamas.

Because the poll was still open on the Monday after the game... And I could not see the percentages without voting.

Brad Bredenkamp

They have the talent, they need to take the step of winning the games they should win in the manner they should win them. Don’t play down to the level of the opponent.

PJ SAid

It better be...defense front should be fixed and Akron Defense should allow for deeper passes. At HOME at NIGHT!!! #GBR

Patrick O'Brien

We haven't seen enough of what this team can really do to give that kind of spread.

William Osler

They are not a good team yet. Much work to do.

Alan Portsche

To many issues to fix

VAHuskerFan

There is NOWAY they will cover, there just not that good, atleast at this point.

David Weaver

Not convinced yet

Melvyn Halfon

I do not believe some of the glaring problems with the run defense have not been fixed, and Akron will exploit them.

Danny Brown

The D-line against Cincy wasn't overly impressive, our run game was relatively unproductive, and we had some lucky breaks (even if good play contributed). The next two weeks will be important for closing gaps; I don't think we'll wallop Akron quite by 30+ points. I'm guessing we end up 17

Ed Starke

It's hard to beat any team by that big of a margin.

McV0id

Defense needs more time to cook

George mcdaniel

Around 21 points
