Steven M. Sipple: Helping Husker fans find sweet spot in terms of sensible optimism for '18

Considering Nebraska’s returning personnel and wide-open nature of the Big Ten West Division — not to mention the momentum in the program following a 4-2 finish to this season — fans expecting seven or eight wins in 2019 strike me as reasonable. But folks should pay attention to the evolving nature of the roster. You wonder what the transfer market might bring. A big-bodied receiver to help offset Morgan’s loss? An instant-impact inside linebacker?

One thing is clear: Nebraska’s identity as a program is its zippy offense, which at the moment, has a dynamic talent at the controls.
