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")

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

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

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

I believe that Wandale will receive the most passes this year with Manning catching the second most passes from Martinez,but there will be plenty of other receivers with catches(tight-ends)

Unproven? Absolutely! But we need a big wideout who can go up and after all those errant overthrows. If he only comes down with a quarter of them it should be good for another sustained drive a game.

I'm hoping Omar as we already know what Wan'Dale can and will do. If Omar comes in and dominates then our O will be just fine

If we're talking about running the slot receiver, it has to be a bigger, tougher guy, even if he is slower. It's no good to have a star receiver out half a season or more. Right tool for the right job

I don't think there should be need to choose between two great runs. Both fantastic. But breaking that many tackles against what was supposedly the no.2 team...darn good.

Tommie's more powerful & reflective of the team as a whole. Eric's more athletic & speed. Tommie's was the stamp of greatness on the program, Eric's one of the last hurrah's unfortunately Both great

Both GREAT runs, but Frazier's showed the dominance of Nebraska in the National Championship game against the #2 team in the country. 9 players touched him and he would not be denied.

Crouch's run is better than 99% of plays in the history of college football but Frazier's play is one of the most amazing plays there has ever been. The Gators had a great team but they looked silly.

Fraziers run was great for the moment. It was obvious that Florida knew they couldn't match up with us. They looked lackluster and defenseless. Crouches run is one of the best I've ever seen.

It's obvious that Florida was trying to strip the ball, not tackle Tommie. Eric's run was at a crucial point in the game and the moves he made to juke practically the entire defense was amazing!

As many are saying, I don't want to pick and I also would put TMart's run against Wiscy. I am voting for Eric to try to weaken the divide between the two.
