“We” won’t see. I won’t watch a single second of your poopy team outside of the weekend I’m forced to.
We’re going to beat you in hoops this year, too!
Season prediction time!

That's big talk! Haha I'm curious to see how Nebraska looks this year. I think you start to see it turn a little for them. Love your coach! Maybe not as much as Painter, but he's probably top 4 in the big ten for me. I do think Purdue is top 10 good in bball this year.
A bit off topic, but how's Bryce McGowans been looking? Heard anything?
Nothing but positives so far and some highlight dunks. Will need to work hard on defense, but he’s ready to contribute in offense right away.
Very excited for hoops this year and beyond. Hoiberg has another 5* little brother on the radar for 2023, as well!
My prediction is I'm done making predictions until I see improvement. No more talk. I wanna see improvement in all areas from turnovers to special teams to play calling. When I finally see that then it's prediction time. GBR!!
We play the 3 worst teams and one of the best in September. If we know where we are after that it's a bad sign. Hopefully we are at least 3-1 and facing 5 winnable (but not easy) games by Halloween. Our fate should be known in October.
If we can go 3-1 our first 4 games then we get 6 to 8 wins. If we don't win our first 3 we will have another long 4 win season.
Just taking an extreme prediction so i can look smart if it happens as I was the only one predicting it. Otherwise, no one will care or notice if I'm wrong. So I rather select an good prediction than a terrible 3 -9 record.
It really hard to put out a number, If they lose to Illinois probably no more than 4 wins more like 3-9. It’s hard to believe that so many problems have done a 180 are corrected or vastly improved, so far frost hasn’t showed any signs of being a decent coach let alone a good one. I would love to eat my words and see 8-4
I'll make my prediction after I see what happens tomorrow. It will be a much more informed one.
I turned the Michigan/MSU game off when Michigan went up 30-14 in the second half. How much did Michigan end up winning by?
Once we lost to Illinois in the season opener it was lights out on the season and Frost. No excuse.
With the misery of Nebraska football, might as well have some fun looking back. @Huskerfan2112 nailed it and was given a lot a sh*t. Myself, along with some other typical blowhards, missed the mark pretty bad.
It’s the ceiling. I’m mad at myself for even thinking 4 wins was possible. This has been the worst NU team I’ve seen to date and yet some fans are asking to sign up for more of the same.
2021 is Frost’s most talented roster but the Ws aren’t coming. They should be. The good news…a good coach can win 7-8 the minute they step into Lincoln.
This roster will look massively different in a few weeks, let alone when NW gapes us across the pond. The expectations for 2022 is a bowl game. Beyond that, starting in 2023 it should be top 3 finish in the west.
So a non winning record is acceptable to you in year FIVE? It’s not to me. But as numerous other coaches at other programs have shown us, it often takes between 6-10 years of losing records before progress in the W column can be made.
I think that 7-8 wins is quite a stretch for a new coach right away in 2022, but the expectation should still be to get to a bowl game. 2021 has been buoyed by a very super senior laden roster. In 2022, replacing some of those key guys is a really big unknown. Having no idea what the roster will look like come spring or even next fall makes it harder to see.
Beyond 2023, the expectation should be competing for and winning the west.
Oh….makes sense. I thought we were both posting on the assumption that Frost would be back in 2022. Peace.
