Steven M. Sipple: Let's talk football — What exactly is Nebraska facing in those first four games?

Granted, the discussion may be a tad uncomfortable if you're a program that happens to have Ohio State on the schedule.

I mean, Urban Meyer's analysis of his former team Saturday during Fox's pregame show surely elicited double-takes all over the college landscape.

Did he really say Ohio State's offense has 11 NFL-caliber players?

Wonder if Nebraska defensive coordinator Erik Chinander heard Meyer say that. You've probably heard that NU plays its season-opener Oct. 24 at the Horseshoe. The Buckeyes battered the Huskers 48-7 last season in Lincoln. Second-year OSU coach Ryan Day pushed hard for a 2020 season to be played in part because he may never again have a quarterback as talented as Justin Fields.
