Yes and give ESPN credit, they have manipulated the algorithm's of their Power ranking formulas to give more emphasis to the conferences in which they own the rights. Just look at the final FPI rankings from 2024: South Carolina - finishes 9-4 after a loss to Illinois - 15th in final FPI...

When the SEC plays 9 conference games instead of 8, then Peter Burns he might have a valid argument. But until that happens, Pete should stop being such a homer. 1. An SEC team basically has to only win 2 conference games just to make a bowl game. 2. Something like 91% of all SEC Non-Con...

Anybody who thought Tyreke was going to even play for Nebraska after 3 years of not even moving past 3rd string at Ohio State was living in a fantasy world.

The flight from Lincoln to Minneapolis only takes one hour. I honestly think Nebraska could have a normal week of practice, and fly out on Friday after a walk thru.

Why?

I don't think this is the case for 2025 at least.

Dude, go check out the rest of Fiutak's previews for other teams. 90% of all games have been 50/50 according to Fiutak. Its like he's purposefully trying to be non-committal so no one can say he was wrong. Also, its kind of difficult to take him seriously when he doesn't have Jacorey Barney...

Or Barry Alvarez is hired when Solich is canned.

Cody Green sucked. I like this hypothetical instead: Blaine Gabbert keeps his commitment and Nebraska competes for a National Title in 2009 and 2010.

Its open for interpretation Betsch. You choose your own path. Be the ball.

Considering Scott Frost was 0-14 in season openers or games where an opponent had at least 2 weeks to prepare for Nebraska, I don't believe its a given that Nebraska would've beaten Akron. But even if he does, it just means Nebraska starts off 1-5 under Frost, and not 0-6.

I feel like you have proven my earlier point. The fact that some people believe Farley was a game changer on the same level or even a higher level than Suh is beyond absurd. He is extremely overrated.

I think the home opener vs. Akron will be a 2:30 game. Houston Christian will probably a night game on BTN. In the link above from the Athletic, they predicted the Akron game will be at 11 am. Maybe they know something the rest of us don't. However, the Big Ten has been pretty consistent about...

This could be a player who is super loved, propped on a pedestal, garnered accolades, and yet maybe if they played for Mike Riley or Scott Frost, nobody would even think about them now? I have an answer, but its controversial and people want to fight me over it: Terrell Farley Don't believe...

Huskers have quietly won 20 of their last 30 and 23 of their last 35. Injuries were a killer, but I will continue to argue that trip to the West Coast nearly cost them their season. I honestly believe they lost focus for two weeks leading up to the tourney, and then they were only thinking...
