Hooked on Huskers Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 1962 Gotham Bowl ...... Huskers vs. Miami Rematch. UThugs can't handle cold NY weather, thus Huskers will win, big. Same thing last year https://www.espn.com/college-football/boxscore?gameId=401032071 Quote Link to comment
WyoHusker56 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Pinstripe bowl vs. Duke... That's basically a 6-6 or 7-5 prediction. Quote Link to comment

Apsu Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I expect a New Year's Day Bowl, such as the Citrus Bowl. As Steve Spurier called it... "the runner up bowl". Quote Link to comment

Hans Gruber Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I get that we all have higher expectations than that. But after back-to-back 4-8 years, we shouldn't be surprised that some people aren't expecting a run for the division title. 3 Quote Link to comment
KCBuc Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 One of the things I love about college football are the bowl games. I had some down time and thought I'd look around and see where NU is projected to go. I know it is all a big guess at this point, but I do enjoy looking at the possible match ups. These are picks after last week not ones from months ago. I am not speculating on if or where they will go. Just showing what others are saying. I will be in Florida during the holidays and hoping NU will end up down there, but I will be happy for them if they qualify for any bowl game (unless its the Independence Bowl in Shreveport because that venue sucks in SO many ways). Beat the Illini!

In all seriousness, Nebraska remains a threat to win its side of the Big Ten while Florida State is a couple plays away from being 3-0. The margin for the Seminoles is that razor-thin right now. 2 Quote Link to comment

Especially after the way we blew at 17 point lead in 1 1/2 quarters to CU.... FIFY I expected to go 8-4 this season. Lucky breaks 9-3. (4-8 is a hard tuen around in the B1G) CU was a hard loss. A lot more questions than answers. After 3 losing seasons in 4 years, I'll take a bowl. Any bowl. Extra practices, another national tv game and "proof" that the program is improving. I still think we can shock some people as NIU seemed to have us trending upwards. Continue against Illinois and see what happens. Quote Link to comment
