| 2008 recap: Pelini got off to a strong start. Helu emerged as my favorite player and the D toughened up somewhat. My predictions were pretty good for the majority of the games. I thought we could beat Virginia Tech but lose in K State. I was surprised we took care of Kansas. But most of the actually scores were pretty close, of course except when OU exploded on us. | |

| 2007 recap: The Bill Callahan Era is officially over. We went from total optimism to somewhat routing for poor performance just to remove the coaching staff. The year was actually more embarassing then my picks. The USC game was pumped up and pretty much wrecked NU's season. At least I was close on my A&M pick! | |

| 2006 recap: The Huskers finished off the regular season 9-3 but lost in the Big XII title game to Oklahomah and then to Auburn in the Cotton Bowl. I did surprisingly well last year. I bought into the Iowa State hype, but really I should of just thought about it: Iowa State, enough said. Also OK St beat them down after the hurtful loss to Texas. Other then that not too shabby. | |

| 2005 recap: The Huskers finished off the regular season 7-4 and also beat Michigan in the bowl game to go 8-4. The Iowa State game could of gone either way but the Huskers prevailed in OT. I nailed the Kansas loss, but the Huskers crushed a detoriated Colorado squad. They played Oklahoma pretty close. The first three games went as expected expect the Pitt game was closer then expected, but at least it was the boringist game ever played! | |

| 2004 recap: The Huskers had there first losing season since I've been born finishing 5-6. So I was 2 games off. I started off hot doing well on the first 3 predictions. I also did pretty good on the Baylor game and Kansas St. Kansas and Oklahoma were ok. But boy was I wrong as no one could have predicted Texas Tech thumping the Skers. I also through we could beat Iowa St and Colorado and I was surprised Missouri was so horrible in 2004. | |

| 2003 recap: Well first of all I decided to do this again. I was only gonna do it one year to show how easy stupid countdowns are. But anyways, I did predict the Texas game EXACTLY! Missouri game was pretty good as well. Southern Miss and Kansas game was way off. They did when more then I expected but I did a fair job huh. They finished 9-3 with a bowl win. This year I am hating again as they are going away from option, option, fullback! Screw the west coast offense. | |
