So, we can disregard that article entirely?
ESPN also had a tweet with predictions of Texas in the CFB.
The ratings in Bristol must look bad if they're this desperate for attention.

What's it been, 5 years since Nebraska made a bowl game? And how many of those years has ESPN predicted them as a contender for the West division? Probably 3-4 of those years?

It is probably based on the fact that Nebraska was in every game last year and barely lost at the end. Sometimes that is bad luck and if the ball bounces the other way, it could be the difference between a 4-8 and 9-3 season.
Interestingly, Football games can sometimes come down to 1-2 plays that totally impact a game and even an entire season.

like an egregiously blatant pass interference call that was "missed" at the end of the Neb/Wisc game. TBF, Wisc probably would have one, but it would have given Neb one more play to tie the game and take it to OT.
