With this year's schedule, Nebraska should have easily been able to get to 8 wins in the regular season but I am not predicting 7-5. If Rhule does not make a huge leap in Year 3, when will he make a huge leap (meaning getting to double digit wins)?
 
I'm sticking with my original preseason guess of 7-5. I'm strangely optimistic about UCLA for some unknown reason. Maybe it's because UCLA doesn't have film with TJ at the helm. Maybe we can surprise their D.
 
I had 7-5 in the first one, but am saying 6-6 now. That is no shot at TJ, but at the coaches as I think they go in a shell here and won't let the kid cook enough. UCLA on the road will eke out a close game, and PSU/Iowa are going to run the ball 40+ times and we won't be able to stop it consistently enough to get it done. Iowa also is going to eat the poor freshman QB alive, they are really good on defense again.
I’m 6-6 and no way advocating for firing Rhule. Now members of his staff are a different story. Injuries are an issue. Unless they go back and examine what works and what doesn’t, we’re cooked. On the road against UCLA, bye then PSU on the road and an Iowa that has found a pulse that we have only beaten once in 10 years…. Glad we got 6 when we did. Best case is 7-5 if we catch one slipping. But I’m still 6-6. The way to beat NU is out there. Run it down our throats and let our our play calling on O take points off the board.
