Cornhuskers will be hard-pressed to break out against rugged schedule in Matt Rhule's 4th season
Nebraska must replace the Big Ten rushing leader and navigate three games against ranked opponents in a schedule that could test bowl hopes.
- Pressure mounts on Nebraska coach Matt Rhule as he enters his fourth season with a 19-19 overall record and 10-17 Big Ten mark, facing a difficult schedule including Indiana, Oregon, and Ohio State.
- Following the departure of Big Ten rushing leader Emmett Johnson, who recorded 1,451 yards before heading to the NFL, the Huskers must replace key offensive production while quarterback Dylan Raiola transferred to Oregon.
- Offensive coordinator Dana Holgorsen adds UNLV transfer Anthony Colandrea, who provides a mobile threat, while receivers Nyziah Hunter, Jacory Barney, and Luke Lindenmeyer return alongside Penn State transfer Tikey Hayes and running back prospect Jamal Rule.
- New defensive coordinator Rob Aurich is revamping a unit that struggled to stop the run, adding San Diego State transfers Owen Chambliss with 110 tackles and Dwayne McDougle III, who recorded 55 tackles and multiple interceptions.
- Breaking through remains difficult for a program that has lost 30 straight games against Top 25 opponents, though Nebraska could reach another bowl by navigating a light nonconference schedule before Big Ten competition intensifies.
