The Nebraska Cornhuskers and head coach Scott Frost are entering a massive season in 2021. The team hasn't performed up to the expected standards since the university hired him in 2018.
Since taking over the head coaching job, Scott Frost has registered a 12-20 win-loss record. He accomplished a 19-7 win-loss record as the head coach of the UCF Knights. If Scott Frost wants to remain the man in charge in Nebraska, the Cornhuskers will need to make it to a bowl game at the end of the 2021 season.

Nebraska Cornhuskers players to watch during the 2021-22 college football season
The Nebraska Cornhuskers will be led on offense by their junior quarterback Adrian Martinez. Unfortunately, his performances have taken a step back since his freshman season.
During the 2020 season, Adrian Martinez threw for 1,055 passing yards, four touchdowns and three interceptions. If the Cornhuskers want to make it to a bowl game, they'll need Martinez to perform better in 2021.
Nebraska will have three of its top defensive starters from the 2020 season returning for another campaign. The Cornhuskers will lean on JoJo Domann, Ben Stille and Cam Taylor-Britt to be the leaders on defense.
According to Pro Football Focus, the Nebraska Cornhuskers have a 3% chance of making a trip to the Big Ten Championship game and have a projected win total of 5.1 games for the upcoming season.
