All-Conference
Haven't seen this topic yet and it is always a good way to kill some of the summer away while we wait for the 2011 season.
I see a lot of potential next year, but I think our schedule will catch up with us. I don't see us getting out of this conference schedule without suffering some hard ache. To many times Nebraska has let downs that have just happened to correlate with bad games that we get away with a victory (check out Iowa State and South Dakota State).

10/08 Ohio State
10/22 @Minnesota
10/29 Michigan St
11/05 Northwestern
11/12 @Penn State
11/19 @Michigan
11/25 Iowa
12/03 Big Ten Champ
??/?? Bowl Game
Chattanooga-(W) Just another game to get ourselves on track. Not too much to worry about unless we have some major issues this year we don't know about.
Fresno State-(W) Good team from last year that should pose a threat. Might figure out what we need to work on as a team as they pushed Nevada last year, but weren't really a dominant team.
Washington-(Toss Up) We all know what happened in the bowl game. This team only gets better as the loss of Locker is the only thing this team really experiences. Kearse and Polk combo could be scary in Lincoln.
Wyoming-(W) It's in Wyoming, but I am not scared and nor should you. They do return 19 starters.
Wisconsin-(L) Opening night in the Big 10 for the Big Red. I am scared that this might be an unwelcoming entrance to the Big 10 as Wisconsin has two great halfbacks that return and an o-line that just reloads.
Ohio State-(L) Pryor walks back into the spotlight and ruins our big day. The game is close, but I don't see Pryor letting this one slip through his fingers.
Minnesota-(W) Even we can't mess this one up. New coach-same Gophers.
Michigan State-(Toss Up) Loads of talent back and they are set to have another good year. I think this game can be our make or break game of the season and whether or not we have a shot at the Big 10 title game.
Northwestern-(W) Persa has injury issues and losses a lot of talent. Another must have.
Penn State- (W) Penn State has more issues than we do but Beaver Stadium isn't nice to us.
Michigan- (W) Robinson is scary, but a new coach and all kinds of issues to solve I think we can take this one in the Big House.
Iowa- (W) No more Clayborn and Stanzi so I think it is safe to say that Nebraska finishes a lot smoother than it started.
Big 10 title?? I would say we end up being 6-2 or 5-3 in the conference which means a lot is riding on whether we beat Michigan State or not. I think that MSU has 2 losses as well without the Nebraska game. Could we beat Wisonsin or Ohio State in a rematch?
Bowl- I say we make the Gator Bowl and maybe see Florida or Arkansas.
I think that Nebraska goes 8-4(5-3) in the conference. I think we end up in a weird tie in the legends division and a tiebreaker says whether we can make it to the title game or not.
I don't think we are going to have the year we all hope it can be.
I would like to hear what you all have to say.
