Off-season trash talk is always fun, especially when the head coach addresses it.

Riley is facing a tall task in returning the Huskers back to college football glory. Over the past few seasons Nebraska has been very inconsistent and incapable of living up to the pre-season hype they have received.

The Huskers will get their chance to silence Clement and the Badgers come October 10th. It should be fun to watch.
