[Husker] Solich speculation just for fun

[Alan Siporin]

To those who don't want to read about Solich, read no further. Hit delete.
Same goes for those who hate speculation. As slow as the list has been, I'm
not sure why you would.

This thought of mine began when I noticed how easy our schedule turns out to
be this year. I can't think of a Husker schedule this easy, ever. And by
this I mean the really tough games that you look at and figure this is the
game or games that derail an undefeated season. Remember those days?

That lead to this thought: I wonder how many of Solich's teams would have
gone undefeated with this regular season schedule? I figure the 7-7 team
would NOT have made it. I figure the 12-1 team definitely would have. Again,
it's all speculation with no way of proof, but I think at least half of the
rest of his teams would have gone undefeated, if not more. Considering he
had a young team (loaded with soph talent) that he was rebuilding that went
10-3, when he was fired, I think it's highly likely he would go undefeated
this year, were he still here.

Of course, he would then lose, possibly badly, to Texas in the Big 12
championship game, and then people would call for him to be fired.
