Most Excited For This Season

[chicolby]

Along the same theme of the biggest concern post, I'm curious to know what people are most excited for this coming season.

For me, I'm most excited to see if the team can knock off someone ranked higher than them. Basically an "upset" - as I can't really remember the last time Nebraska knocked off someone where we were underdogs.

Probably most excited to see the defense with the shackles off. We've got a pretty talented defense on paper.

Corner blitzes. Would love to see guys flying around again.

Looking forward to seeing what the new coaching staff can actually do. I feel like there is a good amount of talent, and curious to see how they look in the new scheme. Jamal Turner, DPE, and others on jet sweeps. Maliek, VV, KW all being turned loose. Not giving up huge plays on busts because of the "system". Lot to look forward to.

Mikale Wilbon & Jordan Stevenson

A chance for our team to play at the top of their abilities. Inspired game plans and in-game adjustments. Rotation and game experience to add depth.

1. Improvement over the course of the season. That includes both as a team and individual player development.

2. Mental attitude. How will we cope if bad things happen. Will it improve over the past regime?

Just happy football is back. This season will have ups and downs just like the rest. I really hope HCMR puts the right guys in the right places. I think this could be a special season due to our lack of a preseason identity.

I think we go 10-2. But, I believe another team will have some good fortune in the West as well. Minney or Wisconsin. I am worried about our opener. I think the players may be a bit too excited and BYU doesn't back down from spotlight games., or a post game fist fight

Not watching my team give up 70 F'n points.

Most excited to see the defense unleashed and the team play with fire.

In game adjustments

Excited to see whether all the talk about a 30-year line coach who goes out to dinner with Milt, has waited to be here all his life, wants players with a nasty streak, insists on technique, who coaches them hard, but loves them harder translates to what is generally accepted as a University of Nebraska-caliber offensive line.

Hopeful that the penalties, OL motion in particular, but formation and concentration/time management (like being ready defensively at the snap) will improve. Discipline, basically.

I am also excited for threads like this; so many good posts and no troll

I really feel we should win the West this year - I am most excited to see how our defense performs - If it can shut down the run then we win the west imo

WI- Stave will never beat you through the air
Minn - will never beat you through the air
Iowa - will never beat you through the air

If we stop the run we win the west

I'm excited to see Riley and Langsdorf's play calling ability. One thing that drove me insane was Beck's consistency with trying to be cute, or going aware from what was working, etc.

 

[4-3 D]

I'm excited to see the new schemes and some of the young talent that normally would be sitting on the bench being held back by an overly complex defensive system.

 

[gldnglv165]

I'm excited to see if we can play fundamentally sound, disciplined football for a change. Oh, that and to see how this new coaching staff uses DPE and if he becomes the weapon we think he will be.

 

[tone1017]

DPE returning punts

 

[ThereIsNoPlace]

1. DPE

2. Nate Gerry Tackles ( there'll be A LOT)

3. A professional sideline.

I'm most excited for a calm Sunday brunch along the side lines, instead of a complete circus. It'll be nice not to have a camera crew dedicated just to following Bo around to catch all his sideline shenanigans on film.
