Michigan is hauling in a top five rated class. No doubt Urban Meyer will put up a similar effort on the recruiting trail. The Buckeyes are sitting No. 15 in the country right now.
To me, Michigan and Ohio State feel like they are going to be the Oklahoma and Texas of the BIG's future.
Back in the Big 12, we always lost the recruiting battle to Texas and OU. At least we had the comfort of knowing that neither of them were in our division. We could win our division and then win the conference title.
Getting to the BIG title seems like a tougher task with Michigan on our side of it.... and seemily more parity in the league than the Big 12.
Can Nebraska do enough on the recruiting trail and on the field to avoid falling to the middle of the pack?
I don't want to wake up to the conversation about Michigan and Ohio State needing to move their game toward the middle of the schedule since those two are almost guaranteed to meet in the BIG title game every year.
Tell me I am freaking out for no reason. Please.
It just feels this way.
