Nebraska doesn't even play a team with a pulse until week 6.

W Arkansas State - Just a warm up game/ score unpredictable/but 50 to something by half.

W @ Oregon - See Arkansas State, mmmmk L

W Northern Illinois - WTF/might be the toughest game until Ohio State L

W Rutgers - Send in the clowns.

W @ Illinois - Do they even field a football team anymore? serious question.

L Wisconsin - Nebraska finally plays a real team/probable BIG Champ

W Ohio State - Battle Tested and ready for the Buckeyes. Close game. L 14-56

Bye

W @ Purdue - What the fuck is this schedule. Purdue on their best day is terrible.

W Northwestern - Words can't describe how bad this team is. L 24-31

W @ Minnesota - Good game but Fleck will get his shit pushed in. L 24-54

L @ Penn State - Just too much for Nebraska.

W Iowa - It's Iowa, enough said. L 14-56

Out of the 3 toughest games they have, 2 of them are at home and probably go 50/50 on those
Wisconsin and Ohio State in Lincoln.
Away games at Oregon, Illinois, Purdue, Minnesota, Penn State.

10-2
It just sets up to well not to.

FTFY

This post aged well.

You're not allowed to do these for Nebraska anymore :pound:

Speaking of, @outofyourmind, we will have one of, if not the toughest schedules in the nation next year.

  • at Michigan (Frost actually played there with UCF in 2016)
  • vs. Purdue
  • at Wisconsin
  • at Northwestern
Those are four games against bowl teams, three of which are on the road.

Then the rest of the season looks like this:

  • vs. Minnesota
  • at Ohio State
  • vs. Illinois
  • vs. Michigan State
  • at Iowa
Yikes. Nebraska’s three crossover draws are against teams with teams who averaged nine wins in 2017. It’s also the Huskers’ year to play five B1G road games. On top of that, Nebraska has to travel to face three of the top four finishers in the B1G West. Bru-tal.

These are some realistic expectations for Scott Frost's first year in Lincoln

We have TEN bowl teams on our sched next year. TEN. I hope it makes up for not having a top 25 OOC game...

...well, by the time pre-season polls roll around I'm sure the media will have UCLA in the top 25 because Chip.

Good luck to the bugeaters next season. Yall are due.

I give OU props for playing tough OC away games unlike Alabama - the king of neutral site games.

I didn't realize this was going to be a spoof thread.
