Fans need to learn how to win again. I don't give a hoot what the schedule looks like or any other excuses. The standard is 9 wins. What everyone has said has validity, but I'd rather not be an enabler of that type of thinking. We are going back to old school principals, and I hope more fans get the memo.
You can't just say we are Nebraska, we will win 9. We aren't entitled to win 9 because TO always did, we have to put in the work and become a quality team again. We have to build back up to that standard and then we should be there to say. It may happen next year, but it isn't a failure if it takes a year of 6,7, or 8 wins to get there first.
