I sense a growing faction of serious players within the program. I don’t think the softies will get to have their way so much in the future.
Hopefully. Will know if that's the case when the captains are announced next season. If it's a completely different slate than the ones named this season, that will tell .

This game is a classic example of the better team not giving a f^*@ about the bowl game. Same story as Texas in 18 and us against Georgia with bo.

Lincoln Riley is a fraud. Sad part is they will enter 2021 in the top 5, run through a **** big 12 schedule, and then get embarrassed in the cfp again.

Ya, if only we were this bad. Sheesh

Here is the thing about OU, thankfully probably their best offensive player is going to the NFL in Stevenson. Dude was suspended for the first half of the year, and they were a different team when he came back. They do have some really good young RB's though so they will reload there.

Mimms and Rambo will be a big problem for Nebraska and like they said last night in the game once they find a spot for Mikey Henderson, he will be a matchup nightmare.

They are smallish on the D Line, but their backers are big and can move. A person will know more about NU after the first two game, but gonna have to have a power and QB run game to keep it close.

I’m not taking the bait, there’s a long way to next fall. Ou could have a lot of injuries we don’t know hell maybe Adrian will have a heisman trophy year we don’t know
Yes, we've got months to build up the team to unrealistic expectations.

OU has multiple redshirt juniors and juniors that could get drafted this year but I believe Riley will convince them all to come back and try to get a natty next year. Rumblings are they think if everyone stays they will not only make the playoff but threaten to win the whole thing. I think Riley is going to use that message to keep a whole lot of juniors from leaving early. They will be loaded on both lines and all skill positions. Scary ****

So, what will the score be next year with them? Rattler will have a field day.

Caleb Williams the incoming freshman QB (5 *) may beat him out. William's film is that good. He has a powerful, accurate arm and is built and runs like Jalen Hurts.

Creed Humphrey has already declared for the draft however.

Remember the Game of the Century? I do. What fun. NU 35-31.
Remember the 25th anniversary game in Norman? I do. OU looked awful. NU 73-21.
Next year's in the 50th anniversary game. I hope we don't look awful.

Yep, going to walk into the Oklahoma game 0-2.
careful. you're in danger of being called ignorant for not just assuming NU will beat a team that killed us at home and another team just because of what conference they're in.

we've lost to first-time coaches and total guts/rebuilds and G5 teams in the very recent past.

I agree with you. we'll be lucky to be 1-1 going into the OU game.

Our last two-game winning streak was Sept. 14 and Sept. 21, 2019. On a positive note, it was against Illinois and a MAC team.

Weird considering today is the last day of 2020...maybe we'll have a chance if we play today, after they just had a game.

agree ... the dates are off

but now that Neb has OSU and Michigan running a little bit scared it is high time they put Oklahoma on notice as well

Oklahoma is usually good for getting upset once a year, maybe we'll get lucky?

I thought their young RB was every bit as good as Stevenson. The only chance we have of hanging with OU is if they start next year like they did this year.

The negativity on this site for a game 10 months away is striking and sad. I hope to God none of the players or recruits waste their time on the ever negative Husker Board.
