Nebraskacornhuskers SquareOffs

If Charmin gets into the NIL biz, they need to sign Martinez because that's how soft he is.

Huskers won’t get to 8 wins with solving the turnover problem and there’s no reason to assume they will.

They have a tremendously difficult schedule and they tend to lose games that they should win.

two teams coming off a bye is not good for big red

Maybe 3 if they are lucky

7 is plausible and realistic with this schedule. 8 means they'll exceed expectations and upset someone on the road.

1. Who runs and catches? 2. AM may get hurt. 3. No ability to win 50:50 games or even ones where favored. 4. Field position and turnovers. 5. Most worrisome is moronic position from HCSF regarding vaccination. How do we get through season without loss of key players or need to forfeit?

A 7 win season would mean the best Husker team since the T Magic era, or maybe further back than that. This schedule is loaded and the B1G isn’t a cakewalk either. Only sure win is Fordham. I’ll be happy as long as they get a bowl game this year

Husker offense has a long ways to go before being competitive.

Until they prove they will not shoot themselves in the foot with stupid penalties and turnovers expectations should be low.

Tough year for it. I'll believe it when I see it with this coaching staff.

I want to believe they can, but until the issues going on over the last several years stop....it's going to be more of the same.

maybe if they play teams like the Ladies of the Lords...

Even with the difficult schedule they have the talent to get 8 wins. Unfortunately, this will also take team execution, discipline and a swagger we have yet to see. I'm hoping for 6 wins and a bowl. Anything more is gravy.

Huskers have not shown ability to beat even avg teams and are much more likely to LOSE one of the games they should win. then upset a team that they are underdogs in. This looks like a bubble 6 win team, at best.

But at least they’re not in the Big 12 any more, am I right? High five!

Not a chance, not with the schedule and no proven on-field play to show otherwise

cause we cant play consistent football. Call it the Frost effect.

Come on. Stop posting these silly articles. I’m a huge fan but NOTHING points to that much improvement.

Huskers does not have the will to win close games. They are 2 years away from winning the close games.

I have to see a decent downfield passing game first before I start getting too optimistic.

Why would we think this team could win 8 games? I always had rose colored glasses on over the last couple of decades. I took them off and, whew, Steve Pederson screwed us. Prove it to me!!!

Coaching

Frost will never win at Nebraska. Hoiberg had a rag tag bunch competing down the stretch vs BIG. Imagine what he’d do with a top 20 class. Frost has zero buy in from his players

Hoops is easier to turnaround and he's got a 5 star coming in. His team played tough all year in a good conference too. They just need to figure out how to win. Two halves together. Both teams beat themselves a lot, which is a problem. Plus next year's football schedule is brutal. How bout Bolt?

I still have faith in Fred and his system in this conference. I don't have the same feeling about Frost any longer. I am fully in "show me" mode with the football team, I don't believe any offseason talk anymore.

I think next year with the 4 & 5 * ranked brothers, we will see and very nice improvement. I think it is going to be close just because of the amount of games played by the basketball team. An extended slump could hurt the BB team % wise.
