Let's hope this year's Huskers Illustrated is off by as much as the 2007 edition was.
Nebraska recently released their 2010 football team yearbook. The cover features Prince Amukamara and Eric Hagg above the title "Big Red Rising: Huskers Eye Return to Nation's Top 10." The Huskers are Missouri's biggest (only?) competitor in the North but personally, I think they're getting way too much love this offseason. As much as I hate to say it, they are definitely a good team. Coming away with a win in Lincoln this year will be tough for Mizzou. However, I'm not sold that they're a top 10 team in the country.
Anyway, this site allowed visitors to view covers of past editions of the Husker team yearbook. I thought the 2007 edition was pretty amusing:
At least the Nubs' intentions were good. They were coming off a 9-5 season in 2006 and if they intended to do better than that, they certainly didn't show it on the field. In 2007 they proceeded to go 5-7, including 2-6 in the Big 12. Their lone conference wins were against Iowa State and Kansas State. They lost to Missouri 41-6, kU 76-39, and Colorado 65-51. So much for aiming higher.
