September 8th 2018 final result: Huskers 62, sCUm 36. :thumbs



 
2 wins and one of them is New Hampshire? Ouch.

Meanwhile, another prediction has them most improved. 

Even giving the the benefit of the doubt to each of them, that makes my brain hurt.

 
The 2 win prediction takes coaching into account. I’m not entirely sure how he gets his numbers there, but that’s why it’s such a drastic difference. He gives their coach a D+ and their DC an F-.

I think we win by more than a touchdown but I do think Colorado is more likely a 6-7 win team than a 2 win team just from looking at their returning talent. It looks like they’ll have the advantage at LB and DB while having an experienced QB and some serious talent at WR. But we should win in the trenches and that’s what will be the difference.

 
I have watched a little off and on. Our corners will have some tests, and they will need to be willing to make some tackles. Shenault, Jr. is a big WR.

But Colorado’s OLine doesn’t impress me. If our front 7 has made strides, I think we win this one easily.

 
I don't know if Colorado is that much improved from last season, but they get a week to work out kinks from a season start win.  Thats huge for them, but they will have to travel on the road, and that does equalize that some.  All you can do is play the games on the schedule.

I kind of like starting with a Power 5 team from the get go.
