Spring game

If we get past Oregon I feel like we should be undefeated going into the Wisconsin game.

We will be underdogs in that game so a loss there probably doesn't equal a meltdown, nor does a loss vs. Ohio State.

If there is a meltdown it will likely be because we suck it up down the stretch like we did last year. Not sure if any one game will trigger it.

The 2nd half of our schedule is not too friendly.

Way to step way out on that limb there, JJM.

Well, if you read between the lines what I'm really saying is we will probably meltdown next weekend.

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

I think Oregon is the only realistic meltdown opportunity.

Unless we somehow beat Wisconsin and Ohio State.

Then every game after that has meltdown written all over it.

Yeah. If there's a meltdown it'll be before Wisconsin.

I think any realist will be content with being undefeated to that point.

A close loss @ Autzen won't phase me much, but getting blown out would. Losing any of those others prior to Wisconsin will have people freaking out.

I'm still in 'give Riley his 4 years' mode, but in year 3 he needs to win the games that he has more talent on the field than his opponent.
That would be Arkansas St, Northern Illinois, Rutgers, Illinois, Purdue, Northwestern, Minnesota.

He will have equal or less talent against Oregon, Wisconsin, Ohio St, Penn St, and Iowa.

Putting Wisconsin and Iowa in that group made me throw up a bit in my mouth, but they've just been more physical up front than Nebraska's been.

I thought this thread was for and about us, the fans and not the team. I am a little rusty at this.

It's not?

 

[it'sHuskers4me]

It's not?

In that case the first fan meltdown possibly comes during the 1st Quarter vs Ark St. with the 1st Husker fumble or Int..

 

[Brasky]

Literally the first down snap. We will melt down if it isn't a Dilfer dime TD by Tanner Lee 70+ yards to the house.

 

[Tomhusker]

Is a mighty young team. Y'all can melt down if you want. I'm gonna hope for victory, expect them to play hard, and brace for impact.

 

[HuskerinBig10]

it will be tonight, and it will be by me.

Oaknights wins our bet because Tanner Lee throws for over 3500 yards, just in one game.

Game on!!

Husker Fist Power!!

 

[psaboy]

[Red_Alert]

I can't find the "all the above"

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

Even if we win this is the meltdown game.

Holy fuck

 

[HuskerinBig10]

I think I won this one.
