The only thing I think that has merit is the potential to shaft Nebraska early on, that they easily could be 1-3 or even 0-4 after 4 games. We all saw how mightily Minnesota struggled at the beginning of the season last year, but because it was an easy starting schedule they found ways to win. If they lose early, it kills momentum and they don’t finish the way they do.
It would have been nice to ease into the season a bit and try to build something. But there’s no easing in at all. We are thrown into the deep end and told to sink or swim. That’s fine, we were gonna play them anyway... I just hope the team can withstand a bad start, should that happen...
