Young team but very talented.

Stephen Willers

Just because I HOPE SO

Stephen Willers

I think we have a lot more talent this year, and a burning desire by both the players and THE COACHS to win. Man I hope one of the kickers comes to the top!!!!

Robert Lloyd

Why not... GBR!!!

Joseph French

Talent on this team is better and they have 3 years under Frost. The system should be clearer. #1 reason is Adrian Martinez will be much better. (Plus I am a "Homer")

Richard Stotts

i thought the B1G was looking at 12 gm schedule??

But even 5-5 is a good season with this schedule. I see wins over Purdue, Illinois, N'western, Rutgers and Mich St who I believe will be the team we get from the East. All other teams will be top 25

Scott Dreas

Tough schedule stretch playing Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Ohio State. Those will be top 20 teams or better against a young group of Huskers. Then Penn State later this year? 4-6 seems more likely

Mike Petersen

I didn't see them getting six wins with the old schedule. The schedule the Big 10 dealt them now is ridiculous. Could see 6 wins with Wisconsin's schedule.

Bill Mussman

The Huskers are not getting better, they are getting worse.

Patrick O'Brien

Too many questions to be optimistic this season. I certainly hope they do well but we'll just have to wait and see.

Brian Reed

Huskers have not proven it on the field yet, But its coming, I don't think frost knew how bad it was here till he got here. huskers have not controlled the line of scrimmage against the power teams

Randy Wolf

There isn't going to be a season. They may try it for a couple of weeks but not many fans (maybe alumni) will watch scrimmages on TV. Advertisers will give up and the season will be canceled.

Michael Lampshire

We need to be realistic .

Neil Meier

I am hopeful. NU needs to jell on the field and off the field with everyone. I am still seeing a little chaos and with the COVID, this did not help.

Roger Roby

3rd year to earn that big paycheck

Matty Mattz

You have to play the games to have a record.

Ryan Shaneyfelt

Assuming we keep our current crossover games and then add Maryland then it might happen. Add Indiana or MSU instead then its less likely, but still possible. If its Michigan than not a chance.

Tim Maxwell

Until they show they can win, I won't believe it.

Roy Bishop

Don't see the season being completed.

Ron Joseph

We were hoping to get to 7-5 by winning our non-conf schedule - before murderers row @ the end. A 3rd losing season is a very possibility, esp no spring practice. Better to cancel 2020- go big in 2021

Tom Nelsen

Show me something, anything and then I'll have some faith.

Joe Hix

Weak Defense that can't stop the run and puts zero pressure on QB's.

Mitch Bronston

Even with all the talent, issues abound with Covid, unsettled execution, player attrition, and a plethora of unknown factors. There are no more pipelines, at least not yet. Go Big Red! Husker for life

The NFL has a pre season and nebraska should look at it like that. Get the players ready for the season. Conference play. Its a good way to build depth and get experience. They play toigh enough teams in the Big10 not to have to play them outside of the Conference.

Ron

Roy makes a valid point below. I also want to add that until the SEC goes to 9 conference games AND the selection committee starts putting more weight into the strength of schedule, we should keep scheduling cupcakes for non-conference games.

Roy Katskee

Nebraska needs time to develop game ready players before heading into the big ten.

Nebraska is far behind the 8 ball here. If it is measured i anticipate this will help retain more attendance in to the second half. especially if the game is not competative.

Ron

Half the fun of attending games is watching all the other ppl make fools of themselves!

First OFF, I love BEER. I know beer was in stadium pre covid, when thermos, etc were allowed. Often folks showed up drunk. BUT it was not a big problem (student section, etc.) But alcohol has gotten me into trouble and expect it to do the at games. Boo - wait til after game.

Kelly Maas

I hate the idea of alcohol in Memorial Stadium. It will just lead to obnoxious drunks.

Rob Abel

I've seen far too many obnoxious drunks at sporting events. And I like a beer as much as the next guy.

Rob Abel

I've seen so many obnoxious drunks ruin the game experience for many families. And I like a beer as much as anyone.

Mike Schmidt

Probably can't do much more damage than the portal!

The redReiter

There are enough drunk people in the stadium already.

Eric Franzen

I'm worried college games will resemble NFL games, with belligerent, vulgar fans everywhere you turn. College games need to remain a family-friendly atmosphere, where parents shouldn't be hesitant to take children.

Eric Franzen

Dennis DaMoude

I"m not looking forward to it. I already have people sitting around me that either come snockered or bring their little bottles of booze and bother us or even opposing fans by making smart remarks to them. It will not make things better. Dennis

Scott Ferguson

Booze seems to make some people speak before they think. I would guess they will have to increase their security guards and purchase more zip tie cuffs.
