Nebraska Football: 5 Reasons The Huskers Will Defeat BYU Saturday

If you are looking for optimism, here you go.

There have been many reasons that folks say Nebraska will start 0-1 on the season.

I am here to help your nerves and give you 5 good reasons to be hopeful tomorrow.

History says Nebraska should win:

You have to go back to 1985 to find a Nebraska Cornhuskers team that lost the season opener. Since then the Huskers have gone 29-0 in season openers. That is the longest active streak of its kind in college football. In the past Nebraska has been all but guaranteed to add to the streak, but this year Nebraska has a tougher task with the BYU Cougars rolling into Memorial stadium.
