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 schedule and a better D. They lost five games under 5 points last year. This year will be much different. Go Big Red!

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!!

The staff walked into a mess. I expect improvement...but 9 wins is out there but it will be tough.

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.

actually voting for the 95 as per head to head, since player size and talent probably were better today as per in 71, since players start at age 5 nowadays. no offense to the 71 team. best in era.

Both would be a favorite of mine as it would be to most Husker fans, but the shear dominance, and depth of the 1995 team was something to be hold. Heck, even the QBs were interchangeable without loss.

The game would be interesting, but I think the 1995 team was bigger--it was a different time. So I pick 1995. Both had great heart, though.

The 1971 team was very good but all around the 1995 was and will always be the greatest college team of all time. None of the other NCAA football national championship teams would stand a chance.

Agree. Even though both teams had six players selected in the NFL draft. The deciding factor has to the Tommy Frazier who is ranked in the top 5 of the best quarterbacks to ever play in college.

Spielman should easily be top, but Wandale Robinson may be the season surprise with many exciting plays.

Spielman will be more of the go to guy. I'm looking for Warner to do some really great things this year along with Stoll. Adrian's running might have more of an impact and that could open everything.

although depends on what you consider as far as stats to be the top receiver. If it's yards - then JD Spielman, number of catches may lean to Jack Stoll
