Yep. But TBH, the rest of the schedule isn't that scary. After Michigan we've got Illinois who has the same record we do - not easy but not impossible. Then we've got probably three of the four worst teams in the conference in a row (Northwestern, Purdue, Michigan State). Then Maryland, who's 4-0 but against hella crappy teams. Then it's just Wisconsin and Iowa - both pretty good but with some flaws. Think we can find four wins out of that group?

Of course, more injuries could change the picture in a hurry...

If there are people on this board who don’t think a bowl game is still possible, even with all our headaches on offense, they are just traumatized from the last X number of years. It’s very possible that we get 6-7 wins. I’ve said it over and over, the Big 10 West is terrible, and until we are mathematically eliminated, a bowl game is still on the horizon. Suck it, haters.

Unfortunately the Illinois coach might eat HH before the game starts.  That boy got chunky.

The team is still not very talented, but Rhule and his staff is trying to make chicken salad out of chicken s#!t. It’s good to see guys who never sniffed the field under the previous staff playing decent, and Rhule using younger guys his staff has recruited.

A bowl game is possible, and really the game against Illinois is really going to dictate their chances. It's a 50/50 game that's going to be a lot like the Minnesota game. Nebraska will have chances in against most of its schedule.

And a new left side of the OL.

 
-Haarberg has that dog in him. He can run the ball well and make plays with his feet. 

He may not have the best arm but he is a game manager. A solid ball security is what Nebraska needs right now. 

-Raiola shouldn't be allowed to coach the offensive line after this season. No progress have I seen. The best blockers seem to be wide receivers and tight ends. 

-Defense had an off day. Need to get more pressure on the QB going forward.

Haarberg sucks as a div 1 qb.  
 

The ONLY silver lining I see is that Rhule/Satt are the first coaches since the coaching carousel started that are not trying to fit square pegs into round holes. 

Would tack it up to solid coaching were it not also said coaches fault our qb/wr issues are so dire.
