This is just for fun, so please chill in advance. Just wanted to get some Husker season talk going...
Sept. 5 BYU - 60% which might be a tad high. Who the hell knows how Nebraska, specifically the offense, will emerge heading into the season opener. Honestly, probably a coin flip. Giving Nebraska an edge at home. 21-20, Nebraska.
Sept. 12 South Alabama - 98%. Inferior opponent. Plus, now that Bo's gone, it won't be left up to Ameer to win it at the end. 42-17, Nebraska.
Sept. 19 at Miami (FL) - 45%. Similar to BYU, probably a coin flip with an edge to Miami at home. First big road test for Riley. 27-24, Miami.
Sept. 26 Southern Miss - 95%. Southern Miss is still awful. 44-14, Nebraska.
Oct. 3 at Illinois - 85%. The Illini may be improving a bit, but it's at a snail's pace. Should have no problem here. But they may make a game of it. Briefly. 38-20, Nebraska.
Oct. 10 Wisconsin - 20%. Let's face it, Wisky has our number. And Chryst will do what Anderson did. Just keep the train rolling. I hate Wisconsin. 42-27, Wisconsin.
Oct. 17 at Minnesota - 60%. I like our chances here. The past 2 games were mainly ugly football, not anything dominant on Minnesota's part. 31-24, Nebraska.
Oct. 24 Northwestern - 75%. Last year we finally separated ourselves from NW (prior meetings all being close). That continues. 35-17, Nebraska.
Oct. 31 at Purdue - 98%. Like Illinois, there's improvement, but not much. Nebraska rolls. 49-14, Nebraska.
Nov. 7 Michigan State - 30%. Michigan State is top 10 and deservedly so. 28-20, Michigan State.
Nov. 14 at Rutgers - 70%. Potential trap game, but I don't think so. I don't buy that Flood is making progress. 34-13, Nebraska.
Nov. 27 Iowa - 65%. Are we past losing or squeaking out games to inferior Iowa? Losing, yes. Squeaking out, no. 28-27, Nebraska.
9-3
