Nebraska football head coach Matt Rhule gave a confident statement after the Cornhuskers' win over Boston College in the 2024 Pinstripe Bowl. Nebraska beat the spread in the tight affair to win its first bowl game since 2015.

All 134 D-1 college football programs are expected to trim a total of about 3,000 players from their collective rosters.
