CollegeFootballNews.com: Big Ten Schedules & Predictions For Every Game

[ADS]

Seems like a fair assessment.

Nebraska will lose at least one game "upon further review" as the officials invoke the new booth-initiated targeting penalty and toss one of our best players. So sayeth the Crystal Ball, or maybe that was a crystal light?

There is no chance that Wisconsin wins the West....literally 0%

There is no chance that Wisconsin wins the West....literally 0%

I don't see it happening either, even if they beat us.

Oregon will be a win

[admo]

Sept. 3 Fresno State - Home Opener, Feel good about it
Sept. 10 Wyoming - Home game - EARLY 11AM! - Coach Bohl back in Lincoln. A little uneasy about this one. But the Big Red will get it done.
Sept. 17 Oregon - Home game is a plus - Need to see it to believe it (a win happening) - Not highly impossible, but need their A-game
Sept. 24 at Northwestern - Rematch that favors the Huskers following the close loss last year
Oct. 1 Illinois - Rematch of a last minute gut punch - A little payback at home
Oct. 8 OPEN DATE - rest
Oct. 15 at Indiana - 2 weeks to get healthy and prepare for an intriguing team
Oct. 22 Purdue - not a rematch, but a revenge game for the Huskers. QB play for the Big Red has suffered in these games for some odd reason. Not this year.
Oct. 29 at Wisconsin - So close last year. Time to turn the corner and kick a winning FG? If not, Huskers still come out hitting strong. Last time in Madison was 408.
Nov. 5 at Ohio State - Back to back road challenges. Not as high powered as teams before. But still, even with momentum it will be tough sledding.
Nov. 12 Minnesota - not automatic as you would think, they have won in Lincoln before. Should expect a close physical game.
Nov. 19 Maryland - can't look past the Terps towards Iowa. Ok, you can, but let's not let this one be closer than it should.

Nov. 25 at Iowa - Could be Tommy's most complete game (it will be circled for him). Tough rematch at their house on that rough, slow field. Plus crappy weather.

 

I don't see a lot of surprises that could derail the Huskers. It's an 8-10 win team but I'm thinking 9 or more.

• I think we beat Oregon and are riding high into Evanston and possibly drop that game. Which would be a big blow since it is the B10 opener.
• The good thing about our schedule, outside of the Oregon game, is that the Home games should be all wins -- I think this happens.
• I see us winning @ Wisconsin after a few years of embarrassment.
• Black Friday has a very good chance of being for the West title.

Well, this prediction certainly is in keeping with the most recent Husker 8-9 win season trends. The only difference I foresee is the Huskers beating one of those teams they have marked as a 'loss' and flip-flopping it with a loss to a team they probably shouldn't lose to.

I predict we will NOT lose to Northwestern and we upset the Ducks.

Nebraska: an Illinois team with an Alabama fan base.

Staff has one year to prove otherwise.
