Then those same schools go down and beat the likes of Oklahoma, Alabama, Wisconsin, and a multitude of other schools that are supposedly on another level. Nothing impressive about that. Those are just the same teams that hand us our a$$ frequently. :P

It's impressive for what it is. It would be infinity more impressive if they had to play a gauntlet of teams like that to get there. Like those teams had to.

I agree entirely. Unfortunately they didn't - and there isn't much they can do about it. Those teams have certainly won as many of these top-tier games as they've lost though. We'll get to learn a lot about TCU now. I don't think they are at the caliber they were in 2009/2010 though so they have that going against them. We saw what happened to Utah when they wandered into the Pac12 last year. Although they didn't do as bad as I thought they would. Big transition...and they finished similar to how Nebraska did in their first year after the transition.

Still, I bet Husker fans wouldn't want to see TCU on their non-con schedule. Or Boise State.

How confident would you feel about that game?

Given Nebraska's record against ranked teams the past decade, I'd be careful pooping on TCU.

Well, we'll just see how tough TCU "really" is this year.

Instead of taking on creampuffs all year long (LA-Monroe, SMU, New Mexico, Portland St, San Diego St, Wyoming, Colorado St, UNLV, Louisiana Tech) with the "one" exception of Boise St (who also plays "one" good team a year) they'll now be taking on KSU, Iowa State, Texas Tech, Oklahoma State, Texas, Baylor, West Virginia & Oklahoma.

We'll just see.
