What's Your Team's 2021 potential 'Trap Game'.

Georgia Southern

Sandwiched between the North Dakota game and the Oklahoma game.

Northwestern (Aug 27th): Frost is 2-2 against Fitz. Nebraska lost their opener to Illinois last season. That's an Illinois that had come off a (2-6) campaign the season prior and had Bert Bielema as first season head coach in his opener. Illinois finished (5-7). Nebraska players will spend the fall practice month of August listening to fan and media hype.
Due to that hype, I favor Northwestern in this game.
North Dakota (Sept 3rd): If Nebraska loses to Northwestern the fans and media will be screaming. Fans and media screaming seems to be the only motivation factor for Husker football. It's a week-to-week rollercoaster.
Georgia Southern (Sept 10th): Nebraska will spend all week with their heads in the clouds being praised by fans and media for beating North Dakota. They'll be looking ahead to Oklahoma. Here comes an egg laying clusterfuck with penalties, turnovers, etc.
Oklahoma (Sept 17th): If Nebraska loses to Georgia Southern the fans and media will be screaming which will hopefully be enough motivation to keep from getting blown out by the Sooners. I still expect a loss, but a moral victory nonetheless.
Indiana (Oct 1st): "Moral victories" still garner praise from fans and media. Nebraska will have a bye week before this game which makes it 2 weeks for the players to listen to praise from fans and media for the moral victory against Oklahoma. With 2 weeks steady diet of Little Caesars Hot&Readys, Xbox, and Susy Rottencrotch, the Huskers lay an egg here.
Frost is (0-5) coming off of bye weeks.

But... and I don't have anything to back up this feeling, but I am confident this year. I think it is mostly surrounding the staff changes.

I see every game on the schedule as winnable, though I think 8 is probably the minimum for me to want to keep Frost. I want to say 9 because this is a pretty light schedule and aside from Michigan, everyone has some sort of glaring struggle.

Edit: Matter of fact, no, we need 9 this year to have some hope for Frosts job.

Can I stay 100% this week? LOL
 
Iowa can be peaky. They are between Michigan State and Penn State as well
 
I'd say Ohio State. We've easily managed 1000+ days without Ohio State beating us, so they're probably spending all their energy trying to win that game. We might overlook them on our way to the B10 title game.
 
With Tennessee, it is every game.
 
It’s obvs @ FAU. It sits between home games vs ACC teams.

And they’re 0-3 vs UCF.

I was gonna say that, but they get a BYE the week after Michigan State before Iowa, it's a home game too. I'd be more concerned if it were @ Iowa.

If theres gonna be one itll probably be @ Maryland the week before Michigan.

Better not be the Maryland game. Me and the of my buddies will be there. Tickets are a third of the cost of a home game and it's only a couple hours farther drive than columbus
 
LSU
Georgia
Alabama
Miss State
Ole Miss
Arkansas
aTm
Penn State

I feel decent about San Jose St, Western KY and Missouri.
 
Simple answer, the next t game is always a trap game - lately.
