Questions this week.

1. injuries Tre Bryant, Joshua Kalu.
2. Where is Devine Ozigbo.
3. Can they make changes during the game. Not wait till halftime.

Ozigbo could have been huge in a few of those plays. They ran Tre into the ground. And Oregon knew it.
My question is can they come out of the corner swinging. It would be nice to control a game. I don't know if MR has ever done that.

Thru 2 games Nebraska has 1 sack. Last in the country

Yeah. Reminds me of bopleeny paddy cake up front.

N. Illinois QB is out.

Our defense will be sure to make the new guy look like Joe Montana

In this case I don't mind if our DL does that...that's kind of what happens in a 3-4. Gotta start bringing pressure from elsewhere though and not just dropping 8.

i still need to watch the oregon game, just caught info through score updates on ESPN and twitter feed. we were out of town at a shindig on saturday and didnt get home until late sunday. hopefully tonight.

the lack of pressure on QBs is concerning, i definitely hate sitting back and only rushing 3, you can't expect DBs to cover for longer than a few seconds, just too many WRs and too easy for a guy to shake loose. make the QB throw it quick, more chance to tip balls that lead to INTs and our DBs should be right on guys to make quick tackles.

 

[Red_Alert]

We shall see as time goes on. Even a shitty QB can get comfortable, find rhythm, and find his check-downs, when he has all day.

 

[Red_Alert]

No pressure = Every QB's dream. The getting laid potential the following week, goes up exponentially.

They literally go from getting 7's on the regular to 9's and 10's.

I hope Tre can play.

Two games and two 100+ yd outings. That is only a 13 player fraternity right now. 5 players had 100+ in their 1st game, but their 2nd game got cancelled due to Irma.

Tre is 7th overall in that 13 player frat.

 

[Red_Alert]

Per the presser, no new injury to Tre. Just the same that's been nagging him.
Sitting out practice today and play it by ear for Tues/Wed. Decision on Wednesday.

That worries me. What if it worse. Mike'l said it best.

We are going to ride a back that has a problem knee...

Any info on why Ozigbo hasn't been playing? Same phantom injury as last year?

I think you are reading all nebraska fans minds right now!!! I was thinking this almost all of the 2nd half! and immediately following game. Surely Bryant cant be our only means of having a running game. Why the stark contrast between 1st half and 2nd half defense!?!

If it were up to me, if you had confidence in your stable of running backs I wouldn't even play Tre this week. Give him more time to get the knee right before B1G play starts.
