Athlon: Ranking CFB's Toughest Schedules

[Mavric]

23. Nebraska

 

Big Ten East heavyweights Ohio State and Penn State both loom on Nebraska's difficult 2017 schedule, which also includes a non-conference road trip to Oregon. The Ducks may be coming off a down year, but Autzen Stadium remains one of the most inhospitable environments in the country — particularly for a team not familiar with the venue. The Cornhuskers do benefit from seeing Iowa, Northwestern and Wisconsin all at home in Big Ten West play, but those cross-divisional games could vex Nebraska's divisional title aspirations.
