Nebraska to the 2025 CFP? Barstool's Brandon Walker thinks so

[Spencer Schubert]

We're in "hot take" season with the 2025 season just a month away, but Brandon Walker of Barstool Sports thinks Nebraska has some shine to it this year. He picked the Huskers to be this year's Indiana: Barstool's Brandon Walker: Nebraska Will Be This Year's Indiana

Think he's got a point?

His guess is as good as anyone's in the preseason. If we were to start the season 6-0 I'll probably start believing just about anything.

I think if this team can stay healthy they have a shot. Overall I feel like its going to be a more athletic team and a bit more explosive. Starting to feel like the woe is me mentality is leaving the building

I like sarcasm, but this time I'm dead serious......

I think if this team can punt and kick field goals the outcome of games will be completely different than what we've have become use to.

I have two solid reasons for optimism for this season:
Mike Ekeler
Bowl practices

Right?

As long as special teams are not hurting NU, I think that there will be a more wins.

I think people also forget other teams had a lot more practice time each year than Nebraska did.

I can live with this!!

Let's have a relatively comfortable above 500 season first.

Then you can let the koolaide flow like wine.

Or, we have a really really fun year where both happen at the same time.

We all know it is click bait but the jump is possible. Most realistic preseason predictions have us at 6th-8th in the conference. It's not too big of a jump to make the top 4- why not let the Kool-Aid flow.
