Well, at least we don't have to hear on every broadcast of our games next season: "Nebraska made a bowl game last season, but was only 5 and 7 and the only team with a losing record to make a bowl game".

Because you know for sure that this fact would have been brought up at least once, if not multiple times, during our games broadcast if we had made a bowl game at 5 and 7.

And for the record - we don't deserve a bowl game. Can't secure one single win in November, shutting ourselves out again. Continuing the longest ongoing streak in CFB for a team not making a bowl game.

Yeah, the schedules are only getting tougher. Far tougher. We needed this season to be at least 7 and 5 to springboard us on faster upward trajectory. We have some huge holes to fill - a bonafide QB, better O Line, more and better receivers and RB's.

We need to quit scheduling tough games to start the season, and our OOC schedule needs to not include tougher teams where it is a toss up W or L. The B1G schedule is going to be tougher now, look at our last 5 games of the 2024 season. Tough. If we don't improve significantly in several areas, getting to consistent winning records will be difficult.

What’s with all the football talk? We’re a women’s volleyball and soccer school!!

Although we might be on the precipice of looking like a functional mens basketball team!
