When people are talking winning the West and having the best D-Lineman in the country......they fall flat. Typically, the “rebound” season always seems to occur after the Ferentz’ hot seat chatter starts up. Quote Link to comment

It seems like a ranking based on returning production vs lost production. I don't think most experts or rational fans would see a 5-7 season barring major injuries. Quote Link to comment

By some statistical accounts last year was not rational. So hopefully we don't have two of those years in a row. Quote Link to comment

Average of computers, sportswriter feelings and polls. i.e. Coaches Poll and eventually CFP committee inputs. Red text means the best rankings. Blue is the worst. Massey's got #45 in Nebraska row. Final 2018 composite rankings, #77 (Huskers). Total of 107 ranking inputs. https://www.masseyratings.com/ranks?s=cf&dt=20190107 Quote Link to comment
