PhillyHusker Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 A bunch of college football experts predicted where Nebraska is going to be in 2010: http://huskersgameday.com/2008/07/16/corn-...braska-will-be/ Charles Davis: 2010 pre season rankings for Florida State (20), Miami (15), Michigan (10), Nebraska (25), Notre Dame (5) Stewart Mandel: 1) Michigan, 2) Miami, 3) Florida State, 4) Nebraska, 5) Notre Dame Fiu: Michigan 3rd, Notre Dame 11th, Miami 15th, Nebraska 23rd, Florida State 25th. I have a gut feeling RichRod will get one or two key players, like a Pat White and a Steve Slaton, to quickly turn around the Wolverines. ND will be fine, Miami will be building to one big year, and then be slightly disappointing, Nebraska will be good, but won’t be Nebraska again, and FSU doesn’t seem to have any positive momentum right now. Steve Greenberg: 1. FSU 2. Nebraska 3. Miami 4. Notre Dame 5. Michigan Teddy Greenstein: 6. Miami, 9. Michigan, 13. Nebraska, 24. Florida State, receiving votes: Notre Dame Dennis Dodd: Michigan, top five Nebraska, top 10 Notre Dame, top 15 Miami, top 25 Florida State, unranked Richard Cirminiello: Michigan…No. 15. Better get the Wolverines now before Rich Rodriguez recruits well and doesn’t take kindly to losing (see Urban Meyer). Miami…No. 17. With a year of seasoning for the young kids, the ‘Canes might be ready for an ACC crown. Nebraska…No. 24. By 2009, Bo Pelini’s fingerprints will be all over the program. In other words, the Blackshirts will be back in Lincoln. Florida State…unranked. After another season of mediocrity, any optimistic pollsters will have vanished. Notre Dame…unranked. The Irish will inch closer to the Top 25, but still are a year away. Bruce Feldman: Michigan, Miami, FSU, Notre Dame, Nebraska Quote Link to comment

General Blackshirt Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Those scores are deviating quite a bit from each other...some aren't even remotely close. 25 and 2? Well, somebodys bound to be within 15 Quote Link to comment
rkhufu7 Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Those scores are deviating quite a bit from each other...some aren't even remotely close. 25 and 2? Well, somebodys bound to be within 15 USC, OU, OSU, Florida, LSU keep doing very good in recruiting, what happened to those programs? Quote Link to comment
MUTigerFan Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Those scores are deviating quite a bit from each other...some aren't even remotely close. 25 and 2? Well, somebodys bound to be within 15 That's because some of the idiot sportswriters (oxymoron?) ranked the five teams 1 through 5 while the other idiots guessed the actual ranking compared to all teams. So.. the article is essentially worthless, like most guesses as to where a team will be 2 seasons from now. (P.S. - I doubt you could find anyone outside of Lincoln who would rank Nebraska #2 in the very near future) Quote Link to comment
General Blackshirt Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Oh, Ok that makes alot more sense now... but at the same time, now the information makes no sense Quote Link to comment

admo Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 It's all fun & fluff. However, my thoughts are: 1) Michigan - unknown; mediocre conference will continue to make this yearly 7-4 team into a 9-2 mirage. 2) Miami - put a fork in 'em. 3) Florida State - someone put a fork in Bobby Bow 4) Nebraska - unknown; I'll specualte improvement each year. 5) Notre Dame - each year they seem to be "a year away". What does that mean? Exactly. Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 the article is on the five traditonal powers that are "down" right now AH. Well, that explains everything. Quote Link to comment
General Blackshirt Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 And since when is Michigan "down"? They were like #2 or 3 a few years ago and despite that loss to Appy St. (which upsets do happen, not that big of a deal) they had a very nice season last year. Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Then they lost a thousand quarterbacks and brought in RichRod. It'll be a tough transition. This isn't the juggernaut rolling ahead from last year. Its been given a huge facelift. And we Husker fans have a little bit of experience in this area... Quote Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 It's hard to tell where we are going to be in a few seasons. It all starts with this season and how we build from there. Quote Link to comment
Back In Black Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 wel good thing Bo is young...we have about 30 years of domination coming Quote Link to comment
huskered17 Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Then they lost a thousand quarterbacks and brought in RichRod. It'll be a tough transition. This isn't the juggernaut rolling ahead from last year. Its been given a huge facelift. And we Husker fans have a little bit of experience in this area... The one big difference I see is, they will get better once RichRod gets "his" type of players in place and stay a top team year to year. Something our last staff couldn't do. Much better coaching staff starting over in Mich, than we had. GBR!!! Quote Link to comment
nhuskers5 Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 I think it all kind of depends on what we do this year. If we go 6-6 or around that area, we wont get much respect next year. If we go 8-4 we proably can get into the top 25 Quote Link to comment
