We should be able to beat Indiana with the talent we have. So I said three wins. Iowa showed against a Nevada D that it will be able to score against at least bad defenses. Plus, usually all Iowa has to do most years is just wait for Nebraska to implode during the game. Beating Iowa requires making 2 or 3 less costly mistakes than Iowa does and they are too well coached to do that. They will play conservative and wait for the shoe to drop. 2 Quote Link to comment
TiredHuskerFanMWI Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Tempted to say zero, but I think we win one more game max. I voted 2 wins this season. it is a group of very, very bad football players. I'm beyond the rally cry of support the players. If they are being paid, they can handle some heat. As a group, they are horrendous. Quote Link to comment
Crusader Husker Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 I kind of thought 3-9 before the season started. That staff showed me nothing to think otherwise. I should have stuck with it. At least the dumpster fire will keep someone warm. Quote Link to comment
TiredHuskerFanMWI Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 we're so awful, Iowa will score 2 touchdowns on us. 2 Quote Link to comment

We make awful QB's look like Tom Brady regularly. They always seem to improve as the season goes on also, so long way until we play. 1 Quote Link to comment

Remember when we made Illinois' backup, like some dude named Chuck Swirsky or something, look like a First Round draft prospect We tricked the NFL into drafting Clayton Thorson. You can trace this all the way back to when we let Gilbert Grape speed-walk for 500 yards 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment
TGHusker Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 I said 2 total. With coach firing abounding, chaos reigns. OU beat down what confidence we had on the offensive side of the ball. The D has got to be confused beyond being functional - who knows what changes Busch and MJ make on D. There are no sure wins left. Quote Link to comment

Hopefully, they can go back to basics this week and somehow get them to at least kind or understand what they are supposed to do. Quote Link to comment

They are going to come in with a lot more confidence than we have right now. Their first win was against Illinois. I think they get beat at Cincy this weekend though. I went with 3 but I wouldn't be surprised to see anywhere from 1-6. Who knows what kind of impact MJ can have if given some time. I think a lot of our questions get answered against Indiana. If they still look crappy, 1 or 2 is most likely. If they look improved and find a way to win that game, I can see a few more possible wins on the schedule. Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Does anyone know what the practice schedule is this week? How much time are they taking off? Quote Link to comment
JJ Husker Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 If Mickey and Busch make any difference/improvements at all we might be able to beat Iowa. Their offense is absolutely anemic. But their D is very good. It’s sure to be a snoozefest. I literally can see a 0-0 overtime type deal. The B1G West is pretty horrible but if MJ has lost the team, there easily could be zero more wins. Quote Link to comment

This is what happens when a completely stoppable force (Iowa's offense) meets a very movable object (Husker defense). 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment
