waylanm Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 I hadn't seen the schedule for this year untill today. When was the last time Nebraska had such a crappy home schedule? Other than the Miami game, there are a bunch of yawners, Minnesota is the best conference home game? WTF? I forsee fans being even less excited and involved in the games than last year. There may be a few season tickets come up for grabs. Quote Link to comment
Minnesota_husker Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 For those curious... Here is the schedule for next year. Aug 30th- VS Florida Atlantic Sep 6- VS McNeese State Sep 13- @ Fresno State Sep 20- VS Miami Sep 27- VS Illinois(HC) Oct 4- @ Michigan State Oct 18- @Northwestern Oct 25- VS Rutgers Nov 1- VS Purdue Nov 15- @ Wisconsin Nov 22- VS Minnesota Nov 28- @ Iowa I think the Miami game will have a ton of excitement behind it. Anyone but UCLA again... man that was a frustrating series. I agree with the OP that the strength of our schedule lies on the road, but really, our schedule isnt all that difficult.Wisconsin and Michigan State are both good but not impossible to beat. Who knows how Fresno State will be without Carr, but cant assume that will be too tough. I am looking forward to seeing Rutgers get welcomed in to the B1G and we should be able to destroy Ill/Purdue. MN will only be getting better, but after last years game, i think we might have a hyped up crowd and a pissed off crowd. All in all, our defense will be better and therefore we matchup well with MSU. Not an amazing home schedule but at least a fairly good chance we could go undefeated. Quote Link to comment
mcouch44 Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 ^^^Couldn't agree more with the Rutgers comment. Anxious to see how they stack up against the B1G teams. I hear they have lost alot of their big time recruits though. Can't wait to see what that Miami game turns out to be! GBR Quote Link to comment

GBR I am looking forward to 2015, as my last act of living in this wretched state, is seeing the Huskers pound the living sh*t out of the mouthbreathing douchebags from Jersey...

Redux Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Im okay with it this uear. We need a statement season. What better way to do that then go undefeated at home? Miami, and Minnysoda should both hold electricity because of nostalgia and revenge. Yeah another game or two with some more meaning wouldve been nice but I expect no less than 11 or 12 wins this year so I say screw it, pile up the Ws. Quote Link to comment

Comish Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Absolute worst home schedule in my memory. But, that just makes the road schedule that much tougher. And, this year, you could argue that we were a much better road team than we were a home team. Quote Link to comment
Landlord Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 It's not like this year's home schedule was all that exciting either. Is the above right, though? We get Illinois at home two consecutive years? Quote Link to comment
Redux Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 It's not like this year's home schedule was all that exciting either. Is the above right, though? We get Illinois at home two consecutive years? Yup. Just a technicality of the division restructure. Quote Link to comment

Michigan was a little more than peeved for going to "little brother's" two years in a row. Quote Link to comment
hskrfan4life Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 I'm really excited for the Miami game. Quote Link to comment
da skers Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Winning on the road will the key to a good year. Agree. All four games are ones we could lose based on how hard it is to win at home against a b10 team. NW is a worry already. MSU will probably be a favorite to win again. Quote Link to comment
BLEED4BLACKSHIRTS Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 As long as our O-line stays healthy and opens up holes for Ameer........and with our young Blackshirts continuing to get better I like our chances this year for the B1G Quote Link to comment

We have a lot of talent to replace. Quote Link to comment
