If we lose to Colorado, after all the talk Husker fans have done about Deion, we will never heard the end of it from CU fans... and deservedly so.
It might be hard to ignore all 7 of them
I for one think he will turn out to be a good coach. That flair doesn't mean he doesn't work his players hard and give them the right attitude for the field. It's a distraction for everyone else, not his players. My guess is that he is a stern coach with good ideas who will hire good assistants and boot off a lot of players from last year's one win team.
How big a loss would it be if he chased all of them off and started with a new batch. They won one game last year.
Distractions. No one gets to be a MLB player and in addition a totally shut down HOF corner and extremely dangerous punt returner without working at it and without being extremely football smart. and pretty clearly he relates to his players.
And they are now permitting access to those practice films.That was a real Belichick kind of moment.

We lost to Mel Tucker. And an awful CU team. Not sure losing to Deion would be worse.
Except they’re WR1, TE1, and multiple offensive and defensive line starters left. There are always good and great players on bad teams, bad coaches create bad teams. Just like us having guys from a 3-9 team get drafted in the 2nd and 3rd rounds
On one side you have an experienced Div 1 coach, with a more solid team against an inexperienced coach with a total ground up rebuild project.
I would have to go with Nebraska in this one, if I was looking at things from the outside.

What we didn't do is lose to a 1 win team.

I didn't say it would be. I'm just saying that many Nebraska fans have a cringeworthy obsession with Deion and the Buffs. We have our own issues to worry about.
How many of the 40 or so players that recently bailed do you think might be great good or great players? Hard to put a number on that, I know, but I don't think too many of them. Would be interesting to see where they all end up and how much success they have post CU.
Nebraska should kill CU this fall. Having watched both spring games, UNL at least has DI level players...CU not so much.
Both teams have been among the worst in college football over the past 5 years, so it should be an epic pillow fight. Yet, UNL seems to have more talent and depth, so this is a game that should not be lost by the Big Red!

More than you’d think. They’re scholarship P5 players for a reason
For me, this is a must win game. Mostly for personal, selfish reasons. 
If he can get all of those new players to come together as a team in the few weeks of fall camp that he has he’s an instant legend.
Games are won and lost on the line of scrimmage and with the loss of so many Colorado linemen on both sides of the ball I believe the Huskers are head and shoulders above CU.
