What Is Next For Nebraska?

That was a nice little win for Nebraska today--and the Big Ten would love to go 2-1 today against the SEC--but the program definitely needs some consistently good play beginning next September. They need to refine the team's image (hit hard on both sides of the ball, run the ball as well as they did this year and get good game management from QB) and then get highly ranked and stay there. If this win today can be a jump start then they have the schedule next year to make some noise. After two tune-ups they head to the West Coast to play a Fresno State team with a first-year QB. Next up, Miami at home. Who knows what to expect from Miami next year but the Huskers should be able to win that one. Then we have the Big Ten sched and the Huskers avoid both Ohio State and Michigan. Unfortunately they have to go on the road to Iowa, Wisconsin, MSU and Northwestern. Split those four and sweep the rest--they should be favored in all of the others--and ten wins and a shot at the Big Ten title game are possible. Hopefully for their sake star IB Ameer Abdullah will not declare for the draft.
