I only bet Nebraska to win.

If I was not a Nebraska fan, I would make this bet, Nebraska is UNDER. I think there is a much better chance to go 7 wins or 8 wins, instead of 9 or more wins.

The fan in me wants 9 or more wins. The only game I think is a for sure loss is Ohio State, all other games, I think Nebraska has a chance. Sure, some are small chances, but it is a chance.

I also have Regular Season Wins for all the teams from South Point in Las Vegas.

There's this obscure site who's predictions have been very accurate in previous seasons.

They run like 70k simulations or something crazy like that and they have Nebraska ranked 4th in the country going into the season.

Nebraska doesn't have a championship D-Line. Would have if motherfuckers didn't take the money and run.

You mean this one? One thing to note as far as the accuracy thing...they graded out at #2 the last two years on Stassen, but that is only considering conference finish, not overall records or final national rankings. From the look of their poll, I'd guess they have us losing to OSU twice.

I'll take the ever optimistic over on that. If Tommy improves enough to only cut his int's in half we should see a few more wins.

I think we will have one reg season loss. I don't think it will be OSU tho.

Our young D-Line is going to be better than people are predicting. Lots of Bones will be thrown this fall.

Have you had that Boys Town breakfast yet?

I was getting worried. You and I seem to track the same, and if you would have said OVER I would have had to reconsider.

Not yet. My boy has an appointment at Pediatrics there within a couple of weeks, so we'll stop in then.

If I go out to breakfast I usually go to Billy's Cafe on 120th and Blondo, or I'll swing through the Abelardo's drive-thru for a sausage/egg burrito.

Nebraska

I expect the 8.5 is a good over/under for money flow.

There are 4 losses somewhere among Oregon, @Northwestern, @Wisconsin, @ Ohio St, @Iowa, and a proverbial unexpected loss among the other 7 that everyone counts as 'automatic wins'.

Nebraska plays 9 conference games this year. If that extra conference game could have been filled with a cupcake like previous seasons I'd probably take the over.

The upperclassmen are bopleeny's flatfooted mid-majors or low end P5 talent. The underclassmen are green.
They are not ready for prime-time up front (on either side of the ball), at QB, or at LB.

Given the materials Riley has to work with, I'd personally see 8 wins as a success if the 4 losses are close. Husker fans need to be patient for another year. IMO

This isn't a Bop team anymore. Gotta keep that in mind.

Last season we were smart QB decision making away from being a 10 win team, and that is no exaggeration.

I really believe Tommy is gonna be different this season with it being his final go at it.

It's not like we needed a lot of good decision making either. Just 1 bad play in most of those losses.

1 damn play.

I really hope they simplify the passing options but I just don't see it with westerkamp and Tommy being seniors I think they want a thousand yard wide receiver and westerkamp to help boost the wide receiver recruiting also I really hope they let Tommy run more I think it's going to be key to the offense a mobile quarterback it's just he can't do that stupid spin out move and then roll and try to throw across the field Tommy has to play very smart each and every play
