Baylor played 3 ranked teams in 2019

loss to #10 OU 31-34 - led 31-10 at the half
loss to #6 OU in the champ game in double OT
loss to #5 Georgia in the Sugar 14-26

next Sept. 9. That's when CU hosts Nebraska in Deion Sanders' home debut as the Buffaloes' head football coach. Sanders' hiring was announced Saturday night, and he was introduced by Colorado athletic director Rick George at a press conference Sunday afternoon in Boulder.

"We need to sell out, and we need the Nebraska game to be all black and gold — no red!" George said. "Coach Prime's first home game is against Nebraska, and we're gonna give him a Colorado Buffalo welcome with black and gold. So we expect everybody to come up and show up. Don't sell your tickets, 'cause we know who you are and, um, that's not gonna work."

I thought Iowa lost a lot of players to the transfer portal (9). 
A headline flashed on my newsfeed today that 10 Nebraska players are in the transfer portal. It is a bit more understandable that with coaching changes Nebraska players will be transferring.

LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) – Nebraska is reducing the price of season tickets for Memorial Stadium’s 100th anniversary, the university announced Tuesday.

Nebraska Athletic Director Trev Alberts said season tickets in 2023 would cost $320, a $100 discount from last season’s price.

“The 2023 season will be a memorable year for Nebraska Football,” Alberts said in a press release. “Not only will we usher in a new era under Coach Rhule, but we will also celebrate the 100th anniversary of one of the best stadiums in all of sports.”

Nebraska’s home games next season includes matchups against Northern Illinois, Louisiana Tech, Northwestern, Michigan, Purdue, Maryland, and Iowa.

Current season ticket holders will receive an email in the coming days regarding renewal information for the 2023 season.

When Nebraska football has its home opener next fall, a portion of the stadium will look a bit different.

Nebraska athletic director Trev Alberts announced Tuesday on Sports Nightly that the original east balcony will transform into a new club level. The new seating will mirror the club level in West Stadium.

The update will result in a reduction of more than 600 seats.

The #1 recruit in the nation, QB Dylan Raiola, decommitts from Ohio State.  And now looks like he’s going to Nebraska.  Dylan’s dad is on Rhule’s staff and is a former Husker.

It's Dylan's uncle, and he's a former Badger actually. Donovan. Pretty nice center for a few years.

Dylan’s father Dominic played for the Huskers.  Didn’t know about his uncle.

[FearlessF]

Didn't hear of Donovan cause he played for Wisconsin and was an undrafted free agent

Donny wasn't the Dominator like Dominic
won the Rimington Trophy, and was recognized as a consensus first-team All-American.
Drafted in the 2nd round by the Lions - committed his share of penalties in the NFL
