neepster Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Not sure if this was also true before the NW game, but just realized with FPI that we aren't even favored to beat Minnesota anymore. 1 Quote Link to comment
brophog Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 We haven't been favored to beat Minnesota in their system. Quote Link to comment
Saunders Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 We haven't been favored for the remainder of the season since September. 4 Quote Link to comment
Branno Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 I think the last game we were favored in was maybe Illinois or Rutgers. Quote Link to comment

Yeah maybe, but I think until our October losses we were favored over Minnesota on FPI at least. Quote Link to comment
Danimal Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Minn is the one team Riley has shown the ability to beat. Fleck inherited a rebuild project on O, no line or passing-attack. Their D is decent but if Mich can score on them we can. They just aren't very good. I think we scrape-out an ugly W here. Neb 24 Minn 20 Quote Link to comment

HuskerMav11 Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 *Still not favored in any remaining game I think if we would have beat NW, we would have been favored against MN, but, yeah... as others have pointed out, we haven't been favored to win a game since September... Quote Link to comment
lo country Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Up to 3.6% against PSU! For anyone on the staff that had any questions if they would need new jobs at the end of the season, NW should have answered any questions they had. I figure knowing they are gone, we will see and even lower performance the next 3 games.... 1 Quote Link to comment

Does the staff spend their time looking for new jobs, or do they make some changes, and use the remaining 3 games to impress future employers? I do not expect any changes to be made. There was more than enough urgency earlier in the year, and nothing changed. Quote Link to comment
BoNeyard Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Who cares? This season is over. Let's get to Nov 25th already. Quote Link to comment
MichiganDad3 Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 I don't want to end the year with a 4 game losing streak that builds in horror. OT loss to NW 10 point loss in regulation to minny 50 point loss to Penn ST. 65 point loss to Iowa, and Iowa does not throw a pass Quote Link to comment

Maybe go back to the NFL Cav-laughable Davis-who knows Williams- some baggage, but solid rep Diaco-This was his chance to rebrand himself. he missed. Booker-A lot of injuries at safety Williams-Injuries, but CB play has stunk Bray-Should've left last year. The only thing he learned from Diaco is "what not to do". Parella- Never really saw them excel in the 3-4. Overall, I think they have enough of a resume to land somewhere minus Cav and Riley. On defense plenty of excuses i.e. talent, new system, coaches learning etc....I can't imagine any of them moving "up or over" to a similar position in another P5 program. We have flat out exceeded every expectation of how poorly we could perform this year IMHO... 2 Quote Link to comment
