'05 - Kept the offense in safe mode all game vs BC, scoring 3 pts
'06 - Shot blanks vs Arizona with arguably the best team of the Bronco era
'07 - Avenged the Arizona loss, one of Bronco's best openers
'08 - It was Northern Iowa, but cracks in the defense were on display
'09 - One of Bronco's best games as coach, if not the best
'10 - Surprisingly beat UW with arguably an inferior team
'11 - Good thing KVN saved the day on Bronco's most prepared team ever
'12 - Riley could play decently when fully healthy, which games we could count on probably two fingers.
'13 - Any minute now, the offense and Taysom are gonna show what they can do. Yep, any minute after delay minute now...
'14 - Started with a bang, then sputtered to a comfortable win
I think Riley is an average coach currently forcing a square peg into a round hole. Nebraska is certainly beatable in this opener, as are we given first game rust plus our history of road games vs P5 opponents.
