Yeah I don't really see how any sober person asks "how did we not go 10-2."
The schedule was weak, but I'm not sure who would have thought we could do that even if we didn't have huge injuries.
Man, sometimes that left side is just soooooo bad!Bad QB play
Losing 1st and 2nd string RBs
Losing 3 of top 4 WRs
Left side of the OL that continues to be a turnstile
I think the biggest thing, for me, is has more to do with just how lame the teams on the schedule are.Fair enough. I guess I understand believing it could possible, as in "10-2 would be our ceiling in a best-case scenario."
But I can't honestly see expecting to have gone 10-2 this year coming off a 3-9 year in 2021 and a 4-8 season last year. Our defense is playing well enough to maybe get us there, but I predicted the offense would be worse than last year.
No, seriously I did not expect 10-2. Hoped would be more like it. Just trying to be funny. Carry on. :cheersFair enough. I guess I understand believing it could possible, as in "10-2 would be our ceiling in a best-case scenario."

Think about it, there is a chance that Iowa is the second best team on the schedule after Michigan, right?
More than likely, NU will be favored over Iowa at the end of the season OR it will be like Iowa -3
Agreed, the Defense really gets after it, they have been a great surprise.No arguments on our schedule being the easiest it's been in many seasons.
I just didn't feel like there was any indication heading into this year that we were any different than the lame teams we're playing. I felt confident there'd be good improvement on defense, and I'd say my expectations have actually been surpassed there.
My vote choice and sentiment exactly.We could win all or lose all. The west is the worst division I think I've ever seen, and that includes our offense. So I went with 3-3 because who the hell knows?! Come on bowl game, pleaseeeeeeee.
Hyperbole Teach in full effect.I have a feeling we will look back on the season and go "How the F did NU not finish 10-2?"
Minny: Suck and should have been a win
CU: They were totally just on fire to start the season. But they did win so it is tough to change that one
And all the remaining games are basically a coin flip.
NU had that Iowa-wetdream schedule.
Huskers go 6-0 and I may have to get Matt Rhule's face tattooed on my butt.
Every other team in the Big Ten West is saying the same thing about themselves and the rest of the division.6-0 Baby!
Sure we suck but all our remaining opponents SUUUCK.
Too bad we couldn’t have managed to pull together even an average offense. This season should’ve been a cake walk even for a new regime.
