After moving to 7-2, what now for Nebraska?

After beating to Michigan State 28-24 to move to 7-2, what now for the Nebraska Cornhuskers?

Someone should give that memo to Iowa, Penn State, Minnesota and our CCG opponent.

I don't necessarily agree that Nebraska would be the only team with national relevance. tOSU is still 10-0 and Michigan had lost to 2 top 5 teams and us. It would be huge for the conference as a whole if we win out and go the Rose Bowl 10-2. Atleast by the numbers it wouldn't look so bad. I just don't want to play Oregon.

I've changed my mind. I want Oregon. Bring it in. Lets see what we have. Put up a decent showing and we gain big time respect. Don't tell me Pelini won't have a great game plan. With the moxy of this team I've seen this year I just want to see them play a complete game. Hope we see it soon cuz we can beat almost any team if we put in a complete game

I think the game plan would be there, the speed on D wouldn't.

Hope Oregon and Notre Dame both win out.
Oregon hops Notre Dame.
Rose Bowl takes Notre Dame. Very high-profile match-up and very winnable game for us.
Best scenario that could happen

If both Oregonand ND go undefeated and Oregon goes to the big game, where does ND fit in? I thought fiesta bowl is where that scenario usually ends up... Am I misremembering?
Also not sure if notre dame is an optimal matchup. Mobile quarterback. Great defense. Thats MSU with a more dangerous qb..

Opening line would be 4 or 5?
Um..no.
We were just underdogs to a 5-4 Michigan State team with one of the worst offenses in America.
Oregon would be favored by double digits easy

Funny question! No comments until end of the season! Bo: I wont buy into that!! Plenty of FB to be played! All 7-2 does is you may and or go to a bowl game! Means nothing. Any projections at this time is just speculation!
I am not worried if we play Oregon and or Alabama same day; so what? If we wanna be Nationally recognized or measure where we stand then play the big boys period!
Oregon like West Virginia found out they have to play defense.
