Nope.

For 2017, I said 4-8 because of the loss of all of the players that took the team to the 2016 record.

Then, when Mark Banker was fired, I had hope.

Then, listening to what the defensive players were saying how the defense was going to be an attacking defense. I had more hope.

Then, all the koolaid poured about Tanner lee, then even more hope. We all saw that pretty 2017 spring game pass he dropped in the corner of the end zone for a TD.

I drank the koolaid, I was swimming in it, it flowed out of all of my orifices. I reversed my prediction of 4-8 to 8-4 for 2017.

Then, I watched the Arkansas State game and knew the coaches were just blowing smoke up my ass. Go back and read the game threads. Tanner Lee was the best QB at Pick Sixes and led the nation in interceptions.

I predict 4-8 for 2018, I have posted about why already. I won't rehash. Right now, the team has 52 new players on the roster. If Watt gets here, that is 53. It takes some time to build chemistry amongst the veteran players and the new players.

Ok I will rehash. New QB. New Center. New offensive tackles. New Tight End. New linebackers. New Corner. New Safety. New RB. New Kicker. New holder. Only two position groups are intact, the D Line and the Receivers. Lightbourn is still the punter and seems to have matured now. Fingers crossed he doesn't regress to his 2016 season.

At least eight JCs will be playing, if not starting., that shows you how bad the team was at those positions according to this coaching staff. Which I agree with.

As usual, my sort of plans to go to Fan Day on August 18th might have gone up in flames.

I do have hope for 2019 at this point in time. Skill players will be good. The defense is really going to be an attacking defense and will have one year of knowledge under their belt.. Not sure about the O line for 2019 though. Worry about that later.


I think this echoes your sentiment.

*plus paint for the red Hulk hands.

I have purchased red spray paint from Walmart for 0.99 per can. I took your advice last year and bought the plastic paint or whatever for 4.99 a can.

But, this year I am going back to the cheapest can of spray paint I can find.

When you keep banging the husker fists together, the paint flakes off pretty fast.

While this may happen, I would think they’d want to get as many live reps for the #1 guy as they can. They’ll decide on a starter and stick with him until given reason not to if I were to guess.

It's Akron. If the back-up doesn't get some PT then 6 wins seem completely out of the question.
