Outside of a few non conference layups at Memorial Stadium the Huskers schedule is B-R-U-T-A-L.  I personally think Nebraska has the toughest schedule in the conference and they will pay dearly.  The non conference trip to Pasadena to take on UCLA won't be a picnic either.  The Huskers easiest B1G game will be against a dramatically improved Minnesota team.  There are literally no gimmies in the conference.  If Taylor Martinez hasn't improved dramatically as a passer oposing defenses will be able to key on Rex Burkhead and the Nebraska rushing attack.  Nebraska can't get away with being a one dimensional offense like they did in the 80's and 90's.

Prediction: 9-3
