Thanks_Tom RR Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 According to BTN, Nebraska has the second toughest Non-Con Schedule in the B1G this year. You're welcome, Riley. 2. Nebraska BYU* South Alabama* At Miami (Fla.)* Southern Miss View full schedule The skinny: The opener vs. BYU will tell us a lot about the Cornhuskers. South Alabama lacks name-brand appeal, but it’s tough. The trip to Miami will allow Nebraska to see how much speed it has. Here is the full list, 1. Michigan (Utah, Oregon St, UNLV, BYU) 2. Nebraska (BYU, South Alabama, Miami, Southern Miss) 3. Minnesota (TCU, Colorado St, Kent St, Ohio) 4. Purdue (Marshall, Indiana St, Virginia Tech, Bowling Green) 5. Iowa (Illinois St, Iowa St, Pitt, North Texas) 6. Michigan St (Western Michigan, Oregon, Air Force, Central Michigan) 7. Wisconsin (Alabama, Miami-Ohio, Troy, Hawaii) 8. Ohio St (Virginia Tech, Hawaii, Northern Illinois, Western Michigan) 9. Northwestern (Stanford, Eastern Illinois, Duke, Ball St) 10. Maryland (Richmond, Bowling Green, South Florida, West Virginia) 11. Illinois (Kent St, Western Illinois, North Carolina, M Tenn St) 12. Indiana (Southern Illinois, Florida Int, Western Kentucky, Wake Forest) 13. Rutgers (Norfolk St, Washington St, Kansas, Army) 14. Penn St (Temple, Buffalo, San Diego St, Army) 1 Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Have to hand it to Michigan - that's about as tough of a non-con as there is in the country, I would think. I figured we'd be up there with two quality opponents. Quote Link to comment
huKSer Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 According to BTN, Nebraska has the second toughest Non-Con Schedule in the B1G this year. You're welcome, Riley. Yeah, except the schedule was set about 6 years ago. Maybe you meant "Welcome to Nebraska, Riley" Quote Link to comment
Moiraine Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I feel like we're more likely to go 4-0 than Wisconsin is. Which IMO makes our schedule easier. That's not to say it won't be tough for us to go 4-0 or that Wisconsin can't beat Alabama. Quote Link to comment

BlueInTheFace Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Penn State should be ashamed of themselves. For their non-con schedule, that is. Quote Link to comment
papersun87 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Penn State should be ashamed of themselves. For their non-con schedule, that is. aside from their home-and-home with Bama a few years back, this is every year. Quote Link to comment
deedsker Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Even Rutgers is trying with Washington State, come on Penn State! Quote Link to comment

NUance Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 2. Nebraska (BYU, South Alabama, Miami, Southern Miss) I like this OOC schedule. It's almost ideal, if you ask me. Miami is a marquee game. And NU v. BYU will get a lot of attention too. Southern Miss is a decent program, just going through a down cycle right now. Really, South Bama is the only weak team. And we need at least one patsy game. Please, please, please let us win that BYU game. And start out the Riley era with a win. Quote Link to comment
