We'll include future member Nebraska in our Big Ten nonconference schedule rankings. That's good news for current Big Ten programs, as I'm assuming this schedule will land the Huskers the 12th (and last) spot in the rankings.

"Overall, it is one of the most challenging schedules we have faced in my five years here, especially with the tournament in San Juan," Nebraska Coach Doc Sadler said. "I also think we have some really good home games for our fans."
Come on Doc, do you really think we're that naive? What I see on your nonconference schedule is four SWAC opponents, two Great West opponents, one independent and no true road games. This is a NC sked designed to preserve your job. If this is the best schedule you've put together in your five years in Lincoln, yikes.
