Why do we not want to play Ohio State? We would be underdogs against a lot of teams. Why not play one of the best and do as well as we can.
I just don't get thinking that putting Ohio State on our schedule is a bad deal. Against whom at the top levels would we do better? PSU? Are you kidding? Already one of the PSU guys that has "opted out" has already said he is playing. The OSU guys will now probably play.
I think worrying about the strength of our schedule in the conference is disrespectful of our coaching staff and our players.
That extra 30-60 min flight would be pretty risky.The schedule should be interesting. I suspect that travel will play some role in it, so I doubt that Rutgers/NU will show up -- those are the two farthest apart in different divisions I believe. We should get someone closer.
I hope we get OSU and Notre Dame - Oh wait, can't get both of those.
Somewhere out there, Desmond and Wilbon are needing to be consoled.
It won’t be the same without fans, but im beyond excited. Really interested to see the schedule. 6 division and 2 crossover games I’m assuming? If our 2 crossover’s are Ohio St and Penn St i’m going to flip.
I just emerged from a hurricane induced power/internet/cell phone outage to this news! I don't know what I'm more happy about, football in October or electricity?

Both! But mostly football...
We're set @ QB for 4 years. Just hope he doesn't transfer to a B1G school. Maybe Colorado?
competition is always a good thing. Just sayin
Bring it! Let the players, who will lose ZERO eligibility, play the real good teams and learn what they need to do to get better. Will be a great barometer on how good we are.....and your younger players get better playing very good teams....I’m willing to bet B10 makes Nebraska’s schedule of:
Ohio State
Michigan
Penn State
Wisconsin
Minnesota
Iowa
Michigan State
Northwestern
Just because Nebraska “threw a fit” when they said they wanted to play
