Since I don't think that since the advent of the BCS more than 3 teams in 1-A
have ever finished the regular season undefeated, it seems very unlikely 
that FOUR will do so in 2007.  

However, I don't think I'm being pessimistic when I say that I don't
expect the Huskers to go undefeated in 2007.  

I would consider 8-4 modestly underachieving, 9-3 seems to be the most 
likely, 10-2 a bit less so, 11-1 seems like a big stretch to me.  And if 
they get to the Big 12 title game again (which IMHO basically means beating 
Missouri and not screwing up in the other divisional games), I think they'll 
do better than they did last time around.
