at this point, i'm just looking for some emotion from the players. an undefeated team coming into our house, they better get themselves up for that shit.

improvement from our DBs too. some pitiful stuff going on there.

offensively, DL to get his head out of his ass. Seriously, i can't believe he said that we were getting behind the chains on runs. seriously, i'm looking at the stat sheet right now (not including Fyfe plays or 3rd down runs):
1st drive (down: yards)
1: 4
1: 1
2: 20
1: 3
2: 18
1: 2
2: -5
FG

2nd drive (down: yards)
1: 3
2: 3
1: -2
1: 3
2: 2
Fumble

3rd drive (down: yards)
1: 22
TD

4th drive (down: yards)
(no runs by RBs, Fyfe -8 on 1 and +3 of 3rd)
Punt

5th drive (down: yards)
1: 5
interception

6th drive (down: yards)
1: -1
Fyfe 7 yd run and short pass falls short of 1st down so punt

7th drive (down: yards)
no runs : 1:19 on clock with score 21-9, so understandable
Interception

Halftime it's 21-9, but 2 TDs by Purdue came on 2 drives of 20 yards each, and we forced them to punt 4 times. so i wouldn't really say we are in a hole.

8th drive (down: yards)
2: 2
2: 9 yd TD run

28-16 at this point with 7:42 in 3rd Q.

9th drive (down: yards)
1: 6
punt

Purdue scores another TD to make it 35-16

10th drive (down: yards)
1st play interception

Purdue scores again for 42-16

so from this point on i understand the throwing
so the reason i post this, 3 negative rushing plays had DL calling a bunch of passes. notice how the # of runs declines too, 1st 2 drives are a bunch of runs. heck it's 43 yards rushing on the 1st drive which is half the total we have for the day. take that and apply even half of that to our other 1st half drives and we'd be sniffing 100+ in the first half.

seriously wtf are we abandoning the run in that game?

So Eichorst and Riley are circling the wagons together. That can't be good for year one.

That tells me there's already been shots across the bow from either the BOR, Boosters, or both.

Oh also, I thought Eichorst doesn't comment about coaches until the "end of the season"?

I reckon that only applies to coaches he DIDN'T hire.

As a coach if your players have checked out why are you still playing them?

We need to control the clock. Limit the time that Cook has the ball and suffocate them on Defense.

basically we need to do the exact opposite of what we have been doing all season in order to win this game

That being said. 52-0 Huskers baby!!!!!!

Lol judging by how no one is else healthy I don't think they have much of a choice plus its not like they are saying it out loud

Not enough excuses left to defend this year... Purdue dominated us . the look mike had last sat was damn this isn't easy as I thought it would be. Plus with the switch of style of play mike gonna need 4 more years which he won't get and probably doesn't deserve

We dont like to lose by more than 3. They are also considering the pissibility that we lose by 10. Also, i hqvent checked this week, but they had a worse pass efficiency D than us going into last week. We should be able to put up some points. With no one to put pressure on Cook, we could be in store for another bigXII game. 77-76 we get a Pat blocked. Or something stupid will happen.

I agree Tometom. I noticed this and was amazed that Riley said that in the press conference after the game. The negative rush plays were the blown up jet sweep at the Nebraska 15 and all the pressure on Fyfe. No mention ever of the interceptions and the high snaps ever being a problem. All five turnovers happened on a pass play. Four inteceptions and a high snap that Fyfe panicked on.

The coaches seem to think that the "greatest fans" don't know anything.
