[NU Sports] next year's schedule?

[Roy Lamberton]

The problem is that we'll play the first 3 of them with maybe 10,000 in the
stands because the students aren't back and none of the 3 visiting teams has a
giant Alumni presence in Chicago.

dOSU looks like it's on the weekend the kids usually come back, and Michigan
will be the first game with a decent crowd.

Even so, given that our offensive backfield is all back next year, with a legit
starter under center, we should be able to take down both Nevada and Duke and
since NE is an unknown, kinda, you'd have to consider that a better than even
shot at winning.

I'm actually a little more concerned about the last two games - Indy and
Ill-noise at the end of the season, because both should be even better next
year, and coming off an improved Big 10 season.
