** 2024 Opponent Preview : UCLA (Game 9) **

I am not sure how long Foster is going to make it. He seems to have recovered from his total freeze at media days, but the PR aspect of being a coach is important. Especially if you can't even think through your answer enough to say anything other than that?

They've had a tough schedule, I think given Indiana's apparent improvement 1-3 is what you'd expect no matter who is coaching. But it was not a resounding win against Hawaii, and it doesn't let up for them this week @Penn State. By the time they get to play Minnesota the week after that they might just be done. 

 
I'm not actually totally convinced that UCLA is as bad as people thought.  Yes, they lost a ton of games to start the year.  But, when you look at their schedule, it was very difficult.  Our hope is that they still don't have a ton of confidence because of their record and we come back home to play well.

Extremely difficult schedule. And they have shown improvement I think over the course of the season. It remains our best remaining chance for a win, but it far from a sure thing.

 
Thank you.  I love 230 games when they are on B1G network.  Because 230 games on other networks means that you have a very good chance of missing the first 5-8 minutes of the game.

100-0 Huskers. Unless we lose. 
 

In all seriousness, I hope we win…of course. If we were to win and clinch a bowl, I’ll be fascinated to see how this team plays with three games to go, knowing that streak is broken. This team and these fans haven’t experienced that in almost a decade…it has to matter and make a difference in confidence and swagger of it all, right?

if Nebraska can't beat UCLA at home they are doomed to another 5-7 season.

Win this game and maybe we steal one more to get to 7-5.  Lose and 6 losses in a row seems likely to finish the season.  This is our most important game in a long time with a bowl game on the line and an opponent we are heavily favored against.  If we can't win this, it will be demoralizing.
