8 games left....How many of them do we win?

[4skers89]

I don't care how much Mike Riley "likes this team", they look to be the worst Nebraska team on the field in the last 20 70 years.

To be fair, Riley probably remembers watching some of our teams in the 40s and 50s that weren't so good.

Purdue is not a good matchup with the way we play defense right now I think we have a better chance at Wisconsin than Purdue 

 

[Hans Gruber]

I picked three. I'm not sure which three. This season is so eerily similar to 2007 though and I feel like this will end up roughly the same. Nebraska will be 5-6 entering the final game of the regular season needing a win to make a bowl game. They won't get it.

If you want to force me to pick three wins, then I will guess Nebraska beats Illinois, Northwestern and Minnesota. Nebraska isn't beating Purdue in West Lafayette this year unless things change dramatically between now and then.

3-5. We aren't terrible but we aren't far from it

 

[neepster]

1-7.  We maybe beat either Illinois or Northwestern but not both.  Everyone else beats us...assuming we stay at our current level.

Its not optimistic but it is realistic based on what we know now.

Northwestern is too far forward to think about now, but Illinois is a dumpster fire. The short week with them having a bye does Nebraska little favors. That probably means more than anything they put on the field.

I voted for every option once I realized that was possible.

Why is that even possible? Making a poll on this board is kinda difficult.

I don't know, but it matches how I feel: that literally any outcome is possible and I have no idea what to expect.

Kinda how I felt when I was making the poll.

Because the box for "Multiple Choice Question" was checked.

Okay... my bad. Maybe you can uncheck that. I didn't identify the voter thinking people would be more likely to vote, but 450 views and only 70 votes? Can people view without signing up for a free account?

4-4 for me.

PSU is genuinely terrifying right now.  I'm having visions of '02 PSU/Nebraska.  As another poster mentioned, Purdue is going to outscheme the beejesus out of Nebraska.  Nebraska beats either Whisky or Iowa.  Obvious L v. tOSU.

 

[Kiyoat Husker]

6-2 because that would be typical of our luck with firing coaches.  Just when all roads point to firing a coach, they totally redeem themselves (almost).

never looking particularly impressive in wins, never getting blown out (this year), making it hard to feel good about firing or keeping him.

Lose to OSU and Wisconsin.

also no divisional title, and losing the bowl.
