Nebraska Football Anticipates Breakout 2025 Season

CBS Sports analyst Tom Fornelli forecasts a promising 2025 season for the Nebraska Cornhuskers, projecting them to win eight games, a two-game improvement over the previous year. Fornelli notes that Nebraska is expected to secure victories against teams like Michigan, USC, and Iowa, while facing losses on the road at Maryland, Minnesota, UCLA, and Penn State. He highlights the potential of quarterback Dylan Raiola to significantly impact the team's success. Furthermore, the Huskers are anticipated to benefit from a favorable schedule that lacks matchups against top teams like Ohio State and Oregon. Nebraska's head coach Matt Rhule is also noted for typically achieving breakthrough seasons in his third year at the helm, suggesting optimism for the program. Additionally, freshman receiver Isaiah Mozee is making headlines during spring practice, indicating potential improvements in the struggling wide receiver corps from the previous season.
