So is the sky still falling or is that no longer a thing?

i think the split with  Tech and Clemson evens up the ledger, even though most of us thought the W would come the other way around. 

 

It's still a brutal gauntlet ahead, and NU needs to improve its game focus during this stretch and cut down on sloppy play for long stretches. But we're where most of us wanted to be at this point. What a great non-conf schedule, eh?

The TTech loss was big, not that it was a bad loss, it wasn't, but that it was a huge opportunity lost, to take control of our own future and not have a repeat of last season.

The concern after that game was justifiable. Road Non-Con Q1 Game > Neutral Non-Con Q1 Game > Road Big 10 Q1 Game > Home Q1 Big 10 Q1 Game. 

What hurt us last year was that we didn't

This win gives a us some breathing room. We have 1 more Non-Con opportunities vs Creighton vs Q1 (currently Ok St is not a Q1 but rather Q2).

As of today we have 13 potential Q1 games. We don't need to win all of them, heck we don't even have to win most of them. 

Our next 5 games. 

Illinois Q4
@ Minnesota Q1
Creighton Q1
@ Oklahoma State Q2
Cal State Fullerton Q4
