I actually love it that he believes in what he said. I think he truly believes in himself and I suggest reading the rest of the article. He has a chip on his shoulder and wants to prove people wrong.

What I do not love is that he OBVIOUSLY is not aware that Nebraska has been winning the Off-Season National Championship every single off-season for a decade.

But looking at the schedule this upcoming season, if Nebraska finds a way to win “eight or nine games” then Nebraska fans should definitely celebrate. Eight or nine wins next season would probably be equivalent to 10 or 11 wins with the 2025 schedule.

Regardless, lets keep the chatter down. Lets win in October and November. I’m tired of winning in May.

For a team that had spent most of the spring building a hosting-level resume, it was easily one of the roughest stretches of the season at the wrong time on the calendar.
