Nebraska + AJ = title favorite?

[Jimmy Cinnabon]

At minimum, this moves them in front of Iowa for 2nd.  Maybe even makes them a favorite with so many of their NCAA points returning?

Yes, I think definite favorites over Penn state now.

Right up to the point the program blows up.

I haven't checked the math but someone on the PSU board says PSU returns 144 points, Nebraska 98, and Iowa 73, making both Nebraska and Iowa clear favorites for the title.

Manning seems like a no-nonsense kind of guy/ lets see how this plays out / get your popcorn and enjoy the show 

 

and when he inevitably flips off the crowd at Lincoln will that be consider a double husker

Not entertaining the thread title but they are going to be really freaking good. I am excited to see what Chance Lamer can do training with Ridge,Taylor,Hardy. L.J. Arujao is someone I am really excited for he is a junior world bronze and had a really good RS season after November.

Manning is definitely the type to give a wrestler a real good mother husking.

Focus is definitely the type to shuck a double husker right back at him.

I give it 1.5 seasons.

Nebraska will score more points at 141, Hwy, and Penalty. Penn State outscores them everywhere else.

When Focus goes into his "spider" position will Manning yell "what's he doing?"

You would of said PSU will outscore Nebraska at 157 after Big 10s last year too, but he didn't.

That is correct. Barring injury and knowing last year's outcome, I will still take PSU at 157 this year
