Over the years, ESPN's FPI has told quite a few tales about the Nebraska football team. However, this year, the Huskers' start to the season has already told two different stories. And the latest one should have fans pretty excited.

The Cornhuskers began the year ranked in the lower 30s in the FPI, with an expected win total of 7.4 wins. Now with a new update following the 2-0 start, Nebraska's projected win total jumped to 9.2 with a 99.8 percent chance of getting to the six-win mark and qualifying for a bowl game.
