## Resource

We’re back. It’s been a disjointed week here at the Locked On Nebraska podcast. But thanks for your patience. On this Friday, we’re answering your questions, as always, with a stuffed mailbag episode. To start, we rank in importance parts of this roster that could swing the Huskers from a six-win team (or worse) to an eight-win team (or better.). What’s under the radar this offseason, and what are we making more of than we should? Has Nebraska ever signed four top-100 recruits in the same class? Should college football find a non-traditional venue to showcase its sport like hockey does with the Winter Classic? Do fourth-year seniors from 2025-26 still have a shot to play this year? What will it take for Matt Rhule’s team to be feared? And is Nebraska alienating too many of its fans with stadium and arena re-seats? Join us.
