Meh, we play in the Big Ten West. Our schedule is full of trash teams. Who is 2nd best Behind Michigan? A mediocre Wisconsin team or a shit Cockeye team that doesn’t play offense? With all of our shortcomings, drunk coaches, and shit teams we’ve had the past 5 years, they still lost like 30 games by 1 score the past 5 years. That’s practically impossible to do. Don’t be complete trash in the red zone and Nebraska is winning like 8 game a year minimum even with all these issues.

Big Favorites - (4) LA Tech, Northern Illinois, CU, and NW - These are garbage teams Nebraska should go 4-0 in these games

Tossup/Slight Favorites (4) - Purdue, MSU, Maryland, Minnesota - All have huge flaws, are rebuilding, or are on The hot seat - Split these games 2-2

Small Dogs (3) - Cockeye, Wisconsin, Illinois - Slightly better but still have huge flaws - Go 1-2

Big dogs (1) Michigan - Probably getting murdered here - 0-1

It’s not that tough to map to 6 or 7 wins. Overachieve in some areas or get hot and more is on the table. There is no reason Nebraska should be losing EVERY SINGLE CLOSE GAME. Nebraska should not have been going 0-3 vs Minneos5a, Wisconsin, and Cockeye every fucking year, they aren‘t that good. They shouldnt be splitting games vs NW, Purdue, Illinois, they aren’t that good. They should be able to get an upset every once in awhile.

tl;dr Big Ten West is trash

Competent special teams alone would have resulted in at least 5 more Frost wins.

No kidding.

Cornicator has to be the absolute worst at predicitions.

Nothing like thinking you're the smartest guy in every room only for it to be the opposite.

I'm changing my username to PredictionMaster.

Literally have never been wrong.

Jef Sins is going to be the worst Day one starting QB Nebraska has ever had. This season will be miserable.

If you all are asking me whether I will take Will Howard, Adrian Martinez, or Jeff Sims, I'm taking Will Howard. But I'm taking Sims last.

Look I want to believe, but I've watched a whole lot of Georgia Tech games. Sims is just fucking dumb man with the football. He looks like he could play the game like Robert Griffin III, but half the time he plays the game like Peter Griffin,
I'll take it. Peter Griffin has won more Super Bowls than RGIII.

I wonder if you put someone like Sam's feet to the fire and forced them to carry through the conclusion that means Scott left a roster bare with holes in multiple roster spots (not saying I agree with that, but that seems to be the implication) if they'd really do that.
I don't think Sam would have any hesitation in saying that. If you're saying the roster is weak, doesn't it go without saying that last year's coach left a bunch of holes?

For sure, that implication is my point. I don’t know that we will see any Nebraska media bury Frost the way they did Callahan/Riley, but TBD

Team has elite talent at WR. Bringing in Jeff Sins means they dont care about wins and losses in year one

O-line supposedly sucks though, so we needed a QB who can run
