I’d say Wisconsin because fans are more realistic

Wisconsin

Nebraska just seems like they're in an inescapable rut.

Great fans on both sides though.

So this is an interesting question.

Plus, I'd rather live in Madison than Lincoln.

Nebraska has the history but Wisconsin has the consistency. As the years go by, Nebraska is looking more and more like a dead-end job...that will take a Bill Snyder miracle worker to turn around.

Some talking head claims someone close to Leipold has said all things equal he would take UW over UNL.

*Unless Leonhard looks completely overwhelmed these next 7 games it's his job.

wisky but they were idiots to fire their current coach. Future coaches will think hard unless it is an up an comer. Not current HC worth his salt will jump ship unless he is an Alum and that didnt save Chris's job.

Wisconsin easily. Nebraska seems like it will never come back to what they were years ago.

As long as Barry Alvarez is the AD Wisconsin is not the best job because he insists on heavy run style of football and the game has changed and Alvarez has not.

Until Alvarez is gone and they have an AD that is more in touch with 21st century college football Nebraska would be a better job.

Chris McIntosh is the current AD, Barry stepped down last year.

I thought he was still AD...My bad. Either way, if they aren't willing to modernize the offense it's not a better job

Chryst has a resume as-good or better than Pelini’s at the time of firing.

We can talk Frank Solich, but that was 20 years ago.

If the B1G scraps divisions, both jobs become less appealing.

The more appealing of the two is whichever has a bigger NIL budget backing the program.

Madison may be a top 10 college town in America.

Wisconsin by a mile. More realistic fan base and better program at the moment.

Nebraska fans are polite and nice for the most part but they’re all living in the 90s.

Wisconsin....especially in the NIL era. Wisconsin is already a more consistent program, is in a bigger city and has access to the Chicago and Milwaukee markets. Nebraska's program is currently terrible, is in the middle of nowhere and has nothing to offer recruits in the NIL era. Going to be a tough tough battle to bring Nebraska back to elite status.
