Original statement
“Starting 5-1 seems very plausible.”
Resolution
According to official University of Nebraska athletics materials (game notes and postgame notes), Nebraska’s first six 2025 regular-season games results were: Aug 28 vs Cincinnati W 20–17; Sept 6 vs Akron W 68–0; Sept 13 vs Houston Christian W 59–7; Sept 20 vs Michigan L 30–27; Oct 4 vs Michigan State W 38–27; Oct 11 at Maryland W 34–31. That sequence is 5 wins and 1 loss (5–1) through the first six regular-season games, satisfying the prediction and the supplied resolution criteria (team-site or NCAA reporting through six games).
