The intent is to ask what you actually think is going to happen.

Well Kim is probably closer to reality than anyone else except the dude or duddette that cost the vote for for 3 wins.

 

[Uenth]

I'm voting 5-7 because it's a killer schedule and I don't have any inkling of what we are going to be able to do next year. I hope to proven way wrong.

I hoping for 9 wins, but I could see 8 as well. I think the Minny game is the wildcard here. Can they sustain the success they had this year? We'll see.

Oh Holyhusk, take a deep breath.

Can I have some of what you are smoking? It must be the really good Monkey Feces.......

I was just trying to give my full support, after some posters said we should be more supportive of retaining this staff. So that's me being totally onboard with this staff. Going all the way to the top.

We're not losing to PSU at home. I refuse to be part of a 5 game home losing streak.(personal streak.)

Cinci is 10-2, Central Mich is 8-4, I can see a PU , NW, Rut maybe Ill as well as SDS, thats it. Iowa is definitely a loss, UNLESS some good QB play occurs and our D improves.

Iowa will not be the same, they lose their senior qb, they could lose three guys off their D line, and no, their backups arent the same level, big dropoff in qb and D line play changes their time of possession,leave it up to the D to stop or make teams drive a full field and make mistakes.
We have a better shot next year than this at them, and wiscys new rb is fast, but doesnt break arm tackles as easily. Alot of those teams won't necessarily be the same, or better.
Minny will have been figured out, and they lose rbs, and I think one or both of their wideouts.
I'd have to do a deeper dive on our opponents, but this is what I know of three of them.

 

[kmillz]

Iowa, new qb, loses their DE maybe two off their D line.
Their qbs have had less playing time than Luke has.

We’re reduced to pinning our hopes on what other teams lose. Pretty sure we have some key personnel losses also. This team has shown they aren’t capable of winning more than 6 with 2020’s schedule. If they can I’ll have to see it to believe it. The last 6 years have shown me very little.

Our we? Or, are we assured to lose as valuant said? I mean, it cant be anything else right?
If I'd said the offense would be figured out, we will be rolling there, and our D should play somewhat decent, and we should beat Iowa you'd be on that too.
I was just reading that iowa might lose both their D ends, they lose their record setting qb, they may lose their O tackles, they lose a guard.
Thats a potential reality, and if it doesnt suit you, then go argue with the owner of that iowa site. Sheesh.

 

[NorthwoodHusker]

Here's minnys losses on D, plus Winfield, the Bigs DB of the year might leave early, very likely.
• LB Kamal Martin: Ranked second on the team with 66 tackles, including two interceptions and two forced fumbles.

• LB Thomas Barber: The middle linebacker was the general of the defense.

• DE Carter Coughlin: Second-team All-Big Ten selection for his team-high 9.5 tackles for loss.

• DE Winston DeLattiboudere: The defense’s great motivator who contributed 27 tackles.

• DE Tai’yon Devers: A big part of the Gophers’ third-down pass-rush package.

• CB Chris Williamson: Stacked up 50 tackles and three pass-breakups.

They also lose 3 guys on offense, those rbs and their 1100 yard wide out.

We are bringing in 6 redshirted four stars plus any that can start or contribute from this class,plus several injured guys whove never started and not played or played little.
So, we are getting better as other teams have much to make up to just maintain where they were this year for next year.
So again, its going to be tough, but things change year to year,just ask NW.

I think this is a reasonable prediction. Even with improvement, our schedule is crazy hard.

Part of why some are predicting more "doom and gloom" ...again, is because Nebraska has talent, but they kind of act like the current Cowboys....once they get punched in the mouth, they fold.

I, we, HAVE to believe that SF reads, hears, and sees that the "masses" are gearing for another FB revolution of sorts, and will do what he has to to live up to his "campaign" promise, and change that perception.

And he will.

I just skimmed over this because it is so hard to read, but you constantly project and preemptively establish excuses that never pan out. Are you afraid to admit the football program is just not very good right now and will still probably lose (based on a pre-season w/l projection) to the teams you deem as inferior because of their personnel losses?

Lot's of hope pinned on few guys who have played any significant minutes, especially trying to compete in a conference like the Big 10. Whatever you can say about Nebraska, you can probably say the exact same things about other teams.
