Colorado plays West Virginia and Forida State before even starting Big 12 play, Kansas State still has Freeman, but has to replace 12 starters and brought in like 19 or 20 jucos...remember how well that worked out for Bill C.? And Iowa State loses a 4 year starting QB and the last time I checked they were still Iowa St. Plus NU gets Mizzou, Kansas, and Colorado at home this year. If you say NU is probably going to lose to Oklahoma, TT, and Mizzou in Big 12 play, they still have a pretty good shot at 5-3 in conference.
Since this is the NU staff's first season I guess they don't really have anything to live up to right now other than expectations. Honestly I think Mizzou will be tough but I have my doubts they will run the table in the North.
