Things I know, and things I think I know (rare Friday edition):

Gerry DiNardo was generally impressed with what he saw from Nebraska last week in its season opener.

Let's keep this in perspective, though. The veteran BTN analyst doesn't regard the Huskers as a serious threat to win the Big Ten West Division.

He obviously feels there's plenty of room for growth in Scott Frost's program.

"I think what he needs is two bowl-game years," DiNardo told me this week. "Then the recruiting improves, and enthusiasm builds even more."

By the way, "It doesn't matter what bowl games they are," he said.
