Yep so many defended that loser in spite of a mountain of data that proved he had zero interest in ever running the ball

I take it you’re joking? rileys teams consistently passed for 2 to 4 times the yardage they ran for those are real stats fro his osu days he never committed to running the ball or developing anything beyond inside and outside zone running plays and those seemed to be an afterthought when it came to real games the thought of it makes me sick even today

Zero evidence that the fan base won’t be patient with a very hard working and proven college coach like frost and staff compared to the lazy 9-5 and 500 coach smilin mike was

I absolutely guarantee you you can get them at face value in the south stadium prior to the game i would be happy to meet you there and you can have mine for free if they aren’t available for face value face value tickets or below were also available for about half the home games this year

Optimistic qb- as long as Martinez stays healthy vedral wasnt impressive, hopefully mccaffrey comes in and learns the system rb- mo is great in space and catches ball well. Mills looks like a strong every down back, Robinson in the hybrid role will be impressive. The 2 other incoming freshmen probably need a year before contributing a bunch but like their film Neutral lb Barry is a stud honas will be ok good talent coming in oline Optimistic The coaching and strength program makes these guys top rbs a quarterback who can run and great play calling will make these guys look better than they are Cb optimistic bootle has improved dramatically that’s half of the equation nailed down neutral wr- Stanley is huge loss spielman is stud importang to keep him healthy warner is possession by who blocks well but not much of threat robinson in hybrid role will shine need a true big body guy here badly need good depth not Warner type depth like the tight ends too- Allen is stud Pessimistic safety lost a bunch here not confident here tough position to learn for incoming freshman dl- hopefully Daniels can plug middle and Robinson sees the field as advertised

VERY impressed with Frosts recruiting prowess However we wont be #14 when it's all said and done The only real team we can pass is Notre Dame If NU lands Parker, Pola Moa and Nioku, they probably gain about 90- 100 or so points as the top 20 kids count and you trade some 4 stars for 3 stars- which gains you anywhere from 15- to 50 or so points per player depending on where the 3 star player bumped down was rated and how high a 4 star the new player is at. Im guessing Notre Dame is probably upgrading a couple spots too. We are 80 points behind them However- FSU is at 19 kids and only 70 points behind us Auburn is at 17 and only 100 points behind us Ohio State is at 16 kids and only 200 points behind us So most likely NU slips 3 spots down to about 17th Which is great progress for the program- class is big and deep- high ceiling Start winning and it will get even better

I wouldnt count on Cam Jurgens He hasnt played an injury free season in football since his Soph year in HS Great athlete- hope it works out- but history is against him

Im revising my original prediction a tad: NU should win these fairly comfortably- barring a major catastrophe: South Alabama Illinois Indiana Northern Illinois Maryland Colorado The following near 50/50 games- NU has a slight advantage over- so should win 2 of 3: Minnesota Northwestern Iowa H The following are near 50/50 games where NU has a disadvantage- so Im thinking we win 1 of 3: Purdue Wisconsin H Ohio State H Im not a foam finger koolaid drinkee- I had us on 6-6 last year Im feeling really good about 9 wins 10 if we get the right bowl matchup and dont have a bunch of injuries

Very high probabity of winning: s alabama illinoid colorado n illinois indiana maryland 50/50 type games minnesota northwestern iowa purdue wisconsin ohio state so win the ones your supposed to win half of the 50/50 type games and win the bowl game puts us at 9-10 wins

Well done

I was also wrong about wideout i didn’t think Linsey was as advertised but thought he would contribute he was a bust also thought Riley would have stockpiled receivers for an offense that wanted to pass the vast majority of the time of course that was wrong too who would have guessed we had a great running back hidden in plain sight for 3 years

Usually pretty spot on with my husker predictions- not so much this year what I was wrong about: didnt think ozigbo would ever see the field because he used to not be able to run zone worth a darn and too slow didnt think Washington would ever make it to fall camp as eligible Didn’t think we would have so many untimely penalties thought our special teams would be vastly improved/ they were bad early saw some good progress had as us on 6 wins didnt think our guys would be able to compete against Ohio state love the direction and improvement- hes definately got our team moving in right direction

I’m not that guy i had us on 6 wins this season and 5 in 2017

Winning helps nebraska handily beats: southern alabama illinois maryland northern illinois nebraska wins with room: colorado indiana minnesota thats 7 wins nebraska wins half of the 50/50 games: purdue at home iowa at home northwestern at home nebraska wins one where we are the underdog: wisconsin at home osu at home bowl game 50/50 lots of momentum and a heisman talked about qb in 2020 makes a team with 9-11 wins pretty hot commodity in the recruiting game easily top 15

I had us at 6-6 regular season figured Troy /colorado/northwestern / Purdue winning 2 of 4 2 wins we didn’t get this coming season great schedule, sets up really well for us hard gamex at home easy ones with weak fan bases away H southern Alabama 95 percent win A colorado 85 percent win new coach H northern Illinois 80 percent win A illinois 90 percent win h Ohio state 35-40 percent win h northwestern 60 percent win a Minnesota 90 percent win A indiana 85 percent win h Purdue 60 percent win h Wisconsin 45 percent win A maryland 85 percent win h Iowa 50/50 so Nebraska will be favored in most likely 9 or 10 of its games next season they will be double digit or close to that favorites most likely in 7 games barring major injuries I see no reason why Nebraska shouldn’t be at 9-11 wins next year including the bowl game assuming we win the games we should and go 2/4 on the 50/50 games we can compete and beat every team on the schedule we also could lose to 5 on the schedule conservatively 9 wins most likely 10 get a break or two and win 11 With urban leaving and harbaugh not getting it together offensively penn state not dominating wisconsin looking beatable there isn’t any reason Nebraska can’t consistently win the west and challenge Michigan, psu and osu for titles

What is your definition of success given our equation For me it means: Fielding teams that compete play physical football play disciplined- don’t beat themselves play confident arent being outcoached developing players winning games we should win soundly consistently winning games against teams we have more talent than winning 65 percent of games when playing teams of equal talent winning 33 percent of games against teams that have more talent than us this means consistently winning 8-10 games a year competing for division titles almost every year winning the big 2-3 times a decade and when all the breaks go our way being in the conversation for top 8 1-2 times a decade with frost and cos ability to identify recruit and develop players these are reasonable goals and yes they can be achieved with recruiting classes ranked in the 15-20 range which is doable
