Develop players. Year after year we get beat by teams we consistently out-recruit that develop players better.

I believe defense feeds on offense on Frost coached team more than the flip side. If the offense can move the ball consistently we'll have a great team next year.

To me, the game starts with D. Rock solid D will keep our team in most games.

To hang wt OSU and to finally beat Wisc again, we need a D that can compete and limit their offense. I think we will have a better OL this year & we have many skilled players on the O. Time defense..

Points on the board is fun, but defense wins championships. Play defense, and our offense will take care of itself!

We returned a lot more starters on offense than on defense, and at LB where we did return some guys, we weren't very good last year. D has a lot more work to do heading into the season.

Outside of DFS (fantasy football) I don't gamble. However I think the time is now. Those concerned with addiction, I live in NC and have heard of no major addictions. It would have been reported.

Legalize all gambling. Why does the state have to dictate what you can and can't do.

Stop legislating morality. It is a gross example of dominion over the masses. It's not freedom. Its about power and control. Live and let live.

Not a good thing for college football, but we've got to be ready to match CA and other states, should the NCAA make that call. Schools not on board will of course be left out in the cold.

Sports betting will eventually create an environment where some individuals will want to influence games..it happens. Plus, sports gambling can hurt some families when betting becomes an addiction .

Some folks may benefit from gambling but the odds are many others will suffer serious consequences, which includes children and other members of families who are not involved in gambling.

Reminds me of the "well, other kids are doing it" issue as a parent. Also adds to the "Pay me in addition to my scholarship" Issue. A slippery slope.

Bo Pelini lit a fire under the defense in his first year as DC. Nebraska would have been awesome the next year. I would have loved to have seen that.

We don't know what would have happened, but it could not have been any worse. We have been foundering since his firing. Scott Frost has a big job in pulling us out of the muck. He'll get it done.

Frank knows Nebraska football inside and out Peterson was an idiot and should’ve kept Frank. Peterson never should have been hired at Nebraska He was a total and complete idiot

Firing Frank got us away from our roots and our identity. O & D schemes change but an identity shouldn't. SF is trying to bring it back now after all these years.

Pederson was one of two arrogant Husker ADs trying to make a name for himself. Moral: Don't fire 9 win coaches.

Callahan dismantled everything that made Nebraska, Nebraska. And almost 20 years later, we are just starting to get back what was lost...

HIRING Solich was the big mistake. He was over-matched. IMO, Tom Osborne shares a lot of blame for forcing Solich on the AD rather than having a national search. In 1997, NU could have had their pick of outstanding HC's. Now look at us.

It was bad... but not as bad as hiring Callahan. I dont know if Solich would have ever gotten over the hump... but Callahan sure as hell wasnt.
