10 Wins?

[Greatest Fan of All]

How on earth? We don't play 14 games without at least winning our division, followed by a champ game loss, followed by a bowl game loss. 7-2 may not win the division.

There are many ways it could happen...we practiced losing 4 for years.

I don't see 10 wins, but if our offensive and defensive lineman remain healthy all year and hit the conditioning and weights in the off season it is attainable. Games are won, especially tough games, in the trenches. If we don't develop some horses or a game changer then it may be worse than last year.

I said it before and I'll say it again, offense puts butts in the seats, defense wins game and the trenches wins championships.

I Agree!

Benning said this morning that if we win 9 MR should win coach of the year for the conference. Sobering.

What are the odds the Huskers win 10 games in 2017? My reaction to that question on Fast Friday!

I think it is very possible until it isn't.

Did he explain why?

Schedule, new QB, new defense, lost to the and wr. Also said that the most experienced group coming back, ol, has the most questions/concerns from last year.

We could potentially win 10 next season.

I just don't believe the pass happy offense under a new QB - and a passive run game - would be the route that statistically has the best chance to get us there.

Russell Wilson's transfer helped Wiskey win the BiG in 2011, whats to say Tanner Lee isn't our Russell Wilson, except we will have him for two seasons instead of one. Its not like Lee will be a rookie freshman for crying out loud. We also have a bonified backup scholarship QB, not a walk on.

Wisconsin took pressure off Wilson with a power running game. That's the opposite of our run game.

I would say that Wilson took the pressure off of their running game...... I think you are going to see improvement in the running game simply because the defense is going to have alot of field to cover. If they put 7 or 8 in the box, they will pay. Lee is not a rookie who never took a snap.

Vegas says 6 wins.

This does not surprise me. A lot of unknowns. Does not mean I agree. Just that I understand the logic.
