Saul Good has made a lot of dumb posts this season, but I'll take the first paragraph and the last three paragraphs of the post below.

I don't hate Nebraska at all. I pull for them when they aren't playing Mizzou. Suh's a stud, but he doesn't impact a game the way that Colt McCoy does or the way that Dez Bryant does.

Nebraska gave up 34 points per game in conference play. To compete in the Big XII, you need offensive weapons because every team can score. I look at their season last year, and it looks like they really improved as the season progressed.

Then I look a little closer and realize that the quality of their competition decreased as the season progressed. 4 of the 5 conference wins came against teams in the bottom 5 of the conference: Iowa State, Colorado, K-State, and Baylor. The only good win was at home against Kansas who was a middle of the road team.

Any way you slice it, Nebraska of 2008 was a very mediocre team. You could be better in 2009, but your schedule is such that 4 conference wins is a good season.

I'll assume victories against Iowa State at home and Kansas State at home. You could easily lose 2 out of 3 at Kansas, at Baylor, and at Colorado. I don't see you winning at Missouri, against Oklahoma, or against Tech.

That looks like 3-4 wins to me. I'm not hating. Tell me where I'm wrong.
