after seeing how we looked against Michigan I really don't care about winning the west. let's worry about a bowl game first

Ok, but why not both? I know this is optimistic and most likely delusional, but focus on the next 3 games.

Do you think Nebraska can/will win the next 3 games?

They get a bye to heal up and hopefully get some offensive packages worked out. The next two games are at home against West teams. Then, the dumpster fire at MSU should still be burning when we roll in there.

That gets your 6 wins and a bowl.

My Opinion Percentage Chance:
NW @ home - 70-80% chance of winning
PU @ home - 65% chance of winning
away @ MSU - 60-70% chance of winning

Do you think this team, not the PTSD Frost coached team, wins these 3? I do.

Then, push the chips all in and get a win at home against Maryland, who fell apart to a good OSU team, but lost by the same margin as Indiana.

I don't know if this team can beat Maryland how we both currently look, but it's not a clear L. 30-40%

Wisco will most likely beat us, but I want to see this game against Cockeye before I write it off totally. 25%-35%

Cockeye I give us a slightly higher than 50% chance at home.

And all this to say, I know we will blow it at some point, but it's fun to think about and we are still in the race.

That minnesota loss fucked us so bad. Get pissed thinking about it right now.

I'm waiting for the explosion of turnovers from Haarberg that seems inevitable.

I think we have a higher chance against cockeyes than Purdue. Cockeyes can't throw and we can stop the run like a boss. Cockeye's aren't scoring an offensive TD and if we stick to our running game, hopefully not a defensive one.

Still amazed that the Cockeyes somehow ended up being worse on offense than last year. That's mind bottling

Good point, maybe im slanted in my thoughts after watching almost the entire PU v Cockeye game.

Nebraska will need to take advantage of his propensity to throw picks, and finish getting to him cause they can give up sacks too.

I also think our pass D isn't bad
 
Keeping it 100, none of the teams left on the schedule are better than us. No one has a rushing attack that our defense can't wipe out completely. The only teams left with a passing game that remotely trouble me are Maryland and Wisconsin. Maryland went 5-0 against 2 nobodies and 3 terrible P5 teams, then stunk against OSU. Wisconsin can be beat. We got trucked by an elite Michigan team which skews our stats, but I really think we have a top 5 defense in the country. If our offense was just AVERAGE we would be 5-1 right now.
It's easy to tell that you didn't actually watch that game.. Maryland actually looked really good and was primed for an upset, but they ran out of juice in the 4th quarter.
