What's your #1 expectation for this season??
An even better defense. Keeping Tony White in town was a huge victory, I think year two could be even better with the talent we have
🏴☠️
That we finish all the close games. Offense and defense on the same page to manage/win games.
@michaelkenyon6173 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Better QB Situation with Dillion Riola, and better offence! And Tony White keeping the defense up like last year!
Great vid ! As always you hit the nail on the head............and as a fan ( like you ) of Adrian Martinez can we all say GOOD ON YA ADRIAN !!!!
2AM 👑
8 and 4 that's my love 11 and 1 is my high Go Big Red
@@user-pk6es9dv7tVegas is 6.5 wins
nailed what....he lies....he was a big run guy the last 4 years....
It’s that time of night again boys it’s indeed CORN CRAZED TIME bay bay
That’s right! Bring it on late night
My number 1 thing I wanna see is that we stop “losing” games. It’s one thing if we get beat but we have been gifting wins now for quite sometime and it’s unbearable. If it’s clear that a team is better that’s one thing, but handing wins to dead teams on a silver platter has to stop.
Yeah, getting beat by better teams that stay on-mission doesn't bother me as much as just giving the game away. "On any given day" shouldn't mean "On any given day you can make so many mistakes that you give the game away".
@@dashcammer4322 100% agree. Close losses are fine as long as they aren’t gut wrenching and completely due to mistakes

Let’s go!
☝🏽🤓missed you brother
😇
Gotta say. I made a lot of money off the predictability of NE last year. I strive for a better NE. I can't make the same bets. GBR, and here's to turning it around to where NE deserves to be!
The pattern will break some time. Hopefully it’s this year 💪🏼
I took the over 7.5 wins. I think they win 8 or 9 regular season games. Start of hot then get a lil wonky at the end. The schedule is total trash early.
Fantastic video Connor. I have not made predictions beyond wins and losses yet, but I think the majority of your expectations and over achievements are going to hit. That being said, I think what is most important is good QB play and have a winning record, as you mentioned.
Thanks for watching Sam. I know we'll have a lot to talk about this season together
9-3+ bowl game win. This is a very manageable schedule.
VERY
another cool aid drinker🤣
Yesssir another video makes my day better❤
great program!
Thanks for the content. Always love your videos❤
Thank you for watching them 🙏🏼
I agree 100% with your comments about Lateef . I was surprised when he committed. And I'll be even more surprised if he signs! 👍🏿😎
Regardless, I feel great about the QB room for the next 2 yrs!
Great vid, Solo
Yer absurd, bruh. Posting at 2am? Mr. Hayden's grindin ya'll!!! Love ya, Brother!
It was only 11:30 for me 🤣
Ive never heard of a Nebraska fan with realistic expectations. 😂
That title made me chuckle.
Are these not realistic !?
Perfect timing Connor. Been so hyped about the season - then the lull and questionable recruiting class. After listening tonight- aahhh. It’ll be alright!! We’re on track. So much to look forward to this season. GBR
Very on track, finally closing in on the final 2 months before we get to see the finished product!
Another gem Connor, after 50+ yrs of watching the Huskers, never thought I’d be happy with a bowl bid…but that’s my expectation for the season, well that and a W in so said bowl game. Nothing would be better than to send the Buffs back home with an L also. Doing great young man🏈🌽🏈
Let’s start with a win over CU to set the tone 🙏🏼💪🏼
100% agree with you on special teams. Alvano and Buchini need to improve greatly. No more shanked punts and kicks.
Line play on both sides. Get that going, and if DR plays like a stud, this is a 10 win team. Good O-line play means a potent running attack. A potent running attack opens up the deep passing game, at which DR should excel with the receivers on this roster A great D limits the other teams offensive possessions which tilts the advantage to NU as long as turnovers and penalties are kept in check, and the kicking game doesn't flame out like it did last year. So, I'm going out on a a big limb (too much Rhulaid tonight) and predicting a 10 win season and a possible 11th in a bowl game. What a turnaround year that would be! The key will be coming out of the gate strong, and getting lucky on the injury front. Once momentum and confidence build, everything else will fall into place. GBR, be perfect, and be relentless!
The most important is..the QB not turning it over, thats football 101, then working as a team not a "me" or "I" mentality. This is what is successful in the ultimate team sport. Oh, and I miss you!! GBR!! LFG!!
GBR 🏴☠️🌽❤️
Man, Jalyn is like a dream come true for our situation. And like you, i think his desire to be a Husker like the rest of the QBs is the icing on the cake.
massive win to get him in!
Destiny
My expectation is that DR throws for 2,800+ yards with a 3/1 TD/Int ratio. Maybe 28 TD and 9 Int. That type of QB production paired with our good defense should result in at least 8 wins. GBR!!
That was fun, Connor! Number 1 expectation is a dramatic improvement in both turnovers and turnover margin.
💪🏼🖤
WR room is now deep enough to move Jaylen Lloyd to CB. This is awesome.
Really glad we got a transfer kicker. Didn’t have a lot of faith in Alvano after the spring game and it’s gonna be a big part of winning those close games.
yah that kids got a boot dont get me wrong and whether is bad coaching or what i think the competition couldn't hurt
It all starts up front. We need to recruit and get these 4 and 5 star linemen that are big, quick, strong, long and smart. Get the linemen to work together and things will all come together.
Good vid as always.
❤️🌽
Rhule going all in to start on Simms killed us last season.
Excellent analysis as always. My top expectation....LESS TURNOVERS!! GBR!!!
Need that one!!
Great vid bro
Thanks for bein here!
Great content editing, your impact zooms etc make this the best well produced Husker podcast. Your clear communication style with the production value pushed you past the Carriker Chronicles for best in the sector. Great subtle production updates. GBR
I’m trying to get myself back in editing rhythm now that I’ve got more content to make haha
Glad you like it! 🖤
Great job Connor! My expectations are similar. We have to reduce the turnovers. We must improve in all aspects on special teams. We must win 7 games and be competitive in the others. The 1000yd receiver and rusher will happen if you do the top three. I fully expect us to be 7-0 going into the OSU game. At that point we need to be competitive! Then we need to win 2 of the last four or more. We can beat UCLA at home, then beat either Iowa or USC on the road or Wisconsin at home to be the kind of year we were always used to under Dr Tom. Over achieving this year is 10 wins plus a bowl victory.
I think all of the expectations you mentioned are attainable
Nice job. My bold prediction is that Haarberg scores a TD three different ways: running, throwing, AND receiving.
I expect Nebraska to play the teams they are favored to win, DOMININATLY and to play teams they are a dog to COMPETETIVLY. I'll throw in steamrolling Colorado and deflating their season..!!!
🏴☠️👀🙏🏼❤️🌽
I hadn’t heard that Jalyn Gramstad was officially N!! I agree that he is the perfect addition to our QB room! Proven, experienced QB with high completion rate! Now we can potentially give HH some reps at TE if he has ability to catch and block.
Just about to shut down for the night and get a notification that you dropped a new video. Don't care if it is your take on the new phone book, I'm in.
#ForTheAlgorithm #GoBigRed #FuckTexasAlways :01
🥹🖤
Yes, first think you said is exactly what I've been saying. Harburg first with Dylan Riola as our pocket passer for long balls. We will be good if we stick with that.
I'm expecting the same record. Demanding 6 wins at a minimum, way less turn overs or we need a new coach at $100,000 max until we get results. That's what nebraska needs. He'll I would apply for the job
It has been almost a decade since Nebraska made a 6 win bowl game. The only D1 team to not make a 6 win bowl game since 2016. No team in the USA is worse. Maybe by 2030 they will make the Pop Tart bowl.
The gramstad add was like destiny? Idk how to describe it. But it was best case scenario of all time for that situation. Dude said he wants to be a coach. He knows he’s there to backup Raiola and coach him up if he can. Such a good fit.
You’re right, couldn’t have lined up better!
1> balancing an excellent passing game with an average run game. 70% passing efficiency and all receivers getting a balanced look.
I would like to have a 1000 yard receiver and a 1000 yard rusher but I'm dreaming of the good ole days😂
I think if we just have a competent QB who can hit some deep balls and not give it away, we're already winning more games than last year. H.H is a QB only when we have no other option. But, just like every year, I'm drinking the Rhule Aid and super jacked for the season to
start. GO BIG RED NNNN
I was right last year when I predicted a top 25 defense. This year I’m calling for a 10-2 record and us making the playoffs.
No idea how you saw that one coming 🤣
I'd say the turnovers. Like you said conner, 4 of those games could have been ours if they wouldn't have gift wrapped the football...
Frustrating moments
Great content Connor! You lap your You Tube competition and it is not close
:) 🌽💪🏼🖤 GBR William
Nebraska coaches are leaving no stone unturned attacking every potential weakness that might cost them games this year getting another: kicker, punter, quarterback, running back, offensive lineman, receivers etc.. competition is increasing and that will breed success.
They know what it takes, that’s forsure
Yes, make the helmet a video. I want to make one, too.
Waiting for a couple more stickers, then I’m on it
My biggest concern right now is offensive line recruiting. I know we have 11 young players, however nobody that has really proven anything.
Gonna take some years to develop those dudes forsure
Bro never did I think neb and usc would be in the same conference 😭 but such is life. East coaster die hard usc fan, but really coming on board with the huskers! I noti Ed since I started watching the huskers was really during the frost era and it did seem like a lot of self woes plagued them in those close games. Excited to see how nebraska does this year like you said they seem to be on track for a great season! Great video man!
You’re in the right place haha. I’m a die hard Nebraska fan living in Hollywood with deep ties and connections to USC! I grew up going to every game, a ton of my friends played there and I probably know as much about that program as I do NE 🙃
@CornCrazed that's frikkin dope, man! The bucket list is to make it to the coliseum one day! Excited, I will be going to my first husker game this year versus colorado! Looking fwd to your season predictions and future content man! Also you got a website for any merch?
@matthausman3668 I shut down the website because it’s very time consuming. But if you want merch, I can hit you via email
I hope Rhule finally beats a ranked team as a Power 5/ Power 4 Coach... 0 and 14 all time... 0 and 11 at Baylor and 0 and 3 at Nebraskka [Colo, Mich, and Iowa were all ranked when we played em last season]. To me, this isn't a good look. 0 and 14? Geesh!
When he was at Temple, they beat #19 Navy by 24
@@CornCrazed Yeah. I said as a Power 5 coach at Nebraska and Baylor.
@@CornCrazed He seriously needs to get some wins over GOOD teams... ranked teams...
The Colorado ranking was pure hype. They’re bootyhole
Rutgers will be better. We should win that game but don’t sleep on them
One improvement i dont mind being patient and waiting for is having another feared RB. We had helu, burkhead and abdullah back to back to back. Since Abdullah, we haven't really had a RB that the opposing team had to specially prepare for. 2018 ozigbo was the closest back we had production wise, that was like burkhead or abdullah in recent history.
We need an Ozigbo asap!
Reducing turnovers is the most important improvement they can make.
I wanna take your total defense realistic expectation one step farther. I think that Nebraska should be in the Top 15 if not the Top 10 by the end of the year.
That would be amazing and surprising to me if they could maintain their dominance over the course of 2 szns
Only 3 games NU scored over 21 points? That's atrocious! I am 70 years old and I remember the National Championship years (70, 71, 94, 95, 97). We had teams that ran up 600 yards of offense. Good Grief! I remember games when 3 players would amass 100 yds. rushing each. So you can imagine, 21 points in 3 games is, "hard to accept."
🥲🥲🥲
I swam in the NAIA I was stronger than a lot of our conference winning football team. I started my career walking on to the 15th ranked D1. The levels are night and day. Hopefully he can step up.
Definitely a different game, but even if we consider him a really good incoming freshman from HS, he can still make an impact. This wasn’t an NAIA starter, this was the best player in the whole league!
@@CornCrazed I get that. The best NAIA swimmer would normally place in the top 25 at D1 nationals.
For me Connor, it's improvement. I know that sounds like a low expectation, but we went through 5 years of stagnation, and I feel like Rhule year 1 was an improvement. The sky's the limit if this team continues to improve in all aspects of the game.
🫡
As a hawkeye fan always Love your videos great content. You should beat the buffs . I have huskers 7-5 . But 7 point favorite is that the huskers or iowa havent seen lines or is that your prediction
My prediction is that Iowa will be a 6 or 7 point home favorite in that game & thanks for the support!
I went back and watched the games so many turnovers first throw of the game. 5 turnovers a game is wild. Trim that to 2 a game and we win a shit load more games
The offensive line needs to make a sizable jump for Nebraska to be a consistent winner. The defense should be good and the skill positions look solid. This team will be as good as the oline allows them to be and qb depth won’t haunt us if the oline keeps qbs clean. If Riola is running for his life expect freshman mistakes. If not, the sky is the limit. Punt return and field goal units also need improvement. I’m not sure why we can’t field punts consistently, we rarely return them and never are a threat to take one to the house. Hopefully Barney can help with that.
7:08 we did snag that new kicker. Hopefully he could be decent. And push our room to be better.
Wonder if he’s a serious threat to steal the job?
@@CornCrazed whatever it takes to start making field goals, I’m for haha I’m hoping they wouldn’t even bring him on without knowing he could be a threat. The iron sharpens iron mantra is all I think about when we get a new guy. And I think they’re making an emphasis on special teams this year.
Freshman QB and a weak O-line is always a recipe for disaster.
Yeah. He will miss some games moat likely
I’ve learned to just hit like button once I click on the video.
I think we're going to see the defense take a step back - secondary and linebackers seem a little shaky. And TJ Lateef wont be a Husker. No big loss.
I'm expecting an improvement across the board. Losing close games by giving them away will change. The one thing this staff will do is put the best on the field. More experience across the board. QBs will step up. Donnie's 3rd year will show another step. Culture shift is real. LFG GBR ☠️☠️☠️☠️ we see 10 wins
👀👀
i think i been arguing with you and most other fellow husker fans on your page for 4 years now about getting out of this prehistoric 90s run dominant offense and get into the realistic 21st century where u must pass to win(and before u bring up michigan last season remember they had a qb who could pass and a ridiculous defense) and now you saying u wanted us to pass all along.....you are hilarious bro...hilarious lmao....and dont give me that we did not have a passing a qb and now we do...cause i been calling for a passing qb the last 4 years lol....but hey at least you finally figured it out and on board....better late than never right?lol.....lets hope the rest of our fellow husker fans agree too smh
My prediction 1. Nebraska goes 9 wins maybe 10. 2. Adrian Martinez gets a NFL shot. Adrian is a class act. Pulling for the. 'Huskers. - OU Fan since 1956
Adrian needs another chance! He proved himself this year
I think the offensive line also had injuries, that contributed to the problems on offense.
6 points would ah e meant a win against Wisconsin too, to avoid OT. So 10 wins!
🤦🏻♂️🥲😭
They’ll need 37 to get that Ohio State victory, complete team effort.
I feel much better about the QB situation with the 4 that we have this year as well. Was GBR 🌽 can’t wait to see Raiola -> Lloyd
Way better situation now with a complete room 🌽
I was a husker fan but since we went through a lot of coaches and have very little wins a lot of losses like a fumbling among other things, I just lost all Hope so I don't watch football. I think the first thing the new coach needs to do Is make sure our players stay off of their devices for extended period of time. So they can focus on the game and not on CZcams or Facebook or anything else. Maybe even For some of tom osborne's playbook to give some ideas
@CornCrazed considering anything over a 10 point loss as a blowout is a little ridiculous.
I didn’t say a blowout is 11 points or more. I said two separate things:
1. I don’t see blowouts on this schedule.
2. I believe this team can will keep their games within in 10 points.
NU will be undefeated going against the Buckeyes
This is a fish or cut bait year for Rhule. He needs 6 wins and a bowl. I put him at about a 75 percent probability of making it. Remember Haarberg got em to 5. Dylan wont be flawless but schedule veteran O and D lones should get 6 wins.
I think Haarberg’s a 7 win QB with more experience and a second year as the starter. Excited to see if Dylan can be HIM in year one
If this video doesn’t pump u up for this season idk what will….GBR
Pumped me up too bro ❤️🖤
I want to see Emmitt get a 1000 yard
Gotta beat Iowa, beat Colorado and Win a bowl game. Gotta have it.
honestly we need to be 8-4 or higher its been to damn long
That’s what it feels like the goal should be
I am expecting 7-5. It will come down to turnovers and getting out of their own heads and closing out games they should win.
No bowl game maybe 5 wins
flaming hot take
I will take 6 wins and a bowl game
I do think your expectations are too low. If they win every game they are favored in they will win the first 7. If they have a decent showing against OSU they will favored in their last 4 as well. UCLA should be a win. Having a bye week prior to USC and with USC looking the way they did last season they should win that game. Besides if Miller Moss plays the way he did in the bowl game USC will have a decent season. If Miller Moss plays the way Caleb did the last 6 games of the season USC will not even get to 6 wins. If they split the last 2 games with Wisconsin and Iowa we get to the 10-2 mark Will Compton is referring to. If they lose one other game the shouldn't that is a 9-3 record and I will be satisfied with the season. Eight regular season wins I am disappointed and 7 with this schedule is a lost opportunity.
I think these are bare minimums right. My expectations given their situation with a new QB and a history of winning 4-5 a year.
I’ll have a different prediction for what I think they can achieve, but these are where they are today based on what we know imo. Agree with you on the schedule setup and wins!
They will not lose to Purdue. Purdue is not going to be very good this year. And we just live across the river from Purdue.
Any wins above 5
6 or less would be concerning :/
Is anyone having problems with playing the whole video without having to restart because of Tik-Tok ads? Great content but I've had to restart the video at least three times because the Rik Tok adds shut down the video
I watched it back just now to see if I had issues, but my ads popped up and I just skipped them like normal 🤷🏼♂️
playoff spot??? stop it
Stop what?
TJ is probably going to leave. I hope he doesn't.
5 -1 the first 6 games, then nothing but woodshed beatings the rest of the year. No bowl game.
Compete for a playoff spot? Ok
Correct. There will likely be 4 playoff spots for Big Ten teams and Nebraska is currently 7th in the Big Ten to make the Playoff according to FanDuel. That qualifies as “compete for a playoff spot”.
@@CornCrazedmy apologies everything I read was Nebraska at 7-7.5 wind
Pessimist.
Who’s a pessimist haha
My goal is to vote biden the hell out in November.
🤣
You guys are really delusional. You expect to win 9 games with a freshmen QB? A average receiving core and no proven running back? And oh yeah you guys secondary is garbage. Colorado is going to blow y’all out by 40.
A lot of hype for a 4 win team. Give me a break dude!
Leave him alone he’s obviously scared to play us this year or he wouldn’t be paying attention, Bless your heart!!
Always that puff fan that acts like they won a natty. Puffs get curb stomped in Lincoln. The rapper trying to play qb running for his life. Write it down.
@@austinpeters639 u guys lost to an HBCU a few season ago. Nobody I mean NOBODY is scared of Nebraska . U guys think a freshmen QB is going to win 7 games straight. Is just insane!
@@stephencostello3174 ima keep this receipt when the CU blow y’all out. I seen the spring game. You guys secondary is pure garbage
coach clown rhule better win 7 games or he needs to be shown the exit......realistic with rhule and rookie qb?....no
6-7 wins.
