Bessides Washington, he is exactly what we need, although I see him as a backup, or secondary back to Washington. Washington is better, but we'll see how the season unfolds. It's coming!

I'm more than a little concerned about his off-field issues but man - this could be the jolt the offense needs to be damn near unstoppable

Washington is absent for time being. Wirhout Washington D. Mills clearly stands out as the RB who has the most yards of experience at running back for Nebraska.

NU fans have heaped praise on other running backs before they ever excelled on the field. We are doing the same for Dedrick Mills. Let him show us he is the missing link. Remember last year's RB?

IF, IF he can keep himself upright moving forwards, keep issues laid to rest, there is a very positive reaction for a team that has some elementary attitudes, I want all Huskers to succeed!

With Wandale Robinson coming on board, and more maturity and experience at QB, perhaps a big RB wasn't as critical as some positions on defense.

I'll trust the coaches if they think he's got his off field issues under control, but we've seen too many hyped-up JC transfers flame out for me to be too excited until I see something on game day.

Have to see what kind of shape he is in now and where he will be at the end of fall camp. Greg Bell was a very high rated JC back last year and we see how that worked out. I want the best for him!

Unlike last year, a very favorable schedule. If NU wins the games it should, it only has to win 1 of 4 against the tougher opponents (Northwestern, Ohio State, Iowa, Wisconsin). I like those chances.

attitude and preparation are favoring the team. In addition if the team takes inspiration from Coach DeWitt and his personal; challenges off the field then look out.

I'd think 7-8 games is more reasonable but the favorable schedule gives them a win or two.

Darrion Daniels is the reason why we get to 9. Before his transfer announcement, I had us at 7. This young man will make THAT much difference. He will allow the ends to get in the backfield.

It's a reasonable expectation for this season. The Schedule is much better than last year and the evidence from the second half of the season is ample that a major improvement should be expected. GBR

The first 4 games are key. Not only wins but some convincing victories will go a long way towards scoring an upset along the way. Anything less than 8 wins would be a disappointment. 10 wins is doable

I love this university and all of it's student/athletes/coaches/instructors. I feel this team is on the right path. Keep hopes high but know that growing pains will still rear their ugly heads. GBR

Lack of experience in O line, lack of running back and wide receiver depth and big questions still remain on D. I see them at 5-7 or 6-6. Jack, Omaha, NE

We will be better but the team is so young. I think 6-7 wins is where we land. I hope we get nine, just don't want to get my hopes up. Just beat Iowa!!

Not enough depth to reasonably win 9+ games. We'll need outstanding discipline and execution with precious few injuries to have a shot at 9+.

Unknown commodity or lack of depth at way too many positions including RB, WR, OL, and LB.

West seems to be rising with Huskers, Minnesota & Northwestern catching (& hopefully passing in Huskers case) Iowa & Wisconsin as stronger & consistently championship competitive.

National perception is based on winning in the playoffs, not by the conference divisions. It will even out in time. Hopefully the Huskers are on the rise which will help elevate the B1G.

They already did it once (they renamed the divisions and surely needed to), but we need to get on with it and have some stability to help develop the history of the game.

Making changes to make it "better" after 4 years is purely subjective at best.
