are you watching practices? you got a secret video camera in there? It is absolutely ludicrous for me to believe you think a guy who has coached in the NFL and at multiple good D1 schools can't teach tackling. Players trying to make a big hit, trying to get on the highlight reel. Only way that works is if it's Taylor Martinez running the ball.

These guys were position coaches at their previous jobs.

Being CEO and Coordinators is an entirely different level of responsibility.

Just because a guy lays perfect brick, doesn't mean he can bid jobs, draw up blue-prints, order materials, and supervise an entire construction project.

you know what a day did help. I didn't watch the game yesterday. only listened to part of it. I honestly thought this was on Bo all last night. But I changed my mind after watching the game this morning.

This is 100% on the players. 100%. go watch the 2Q UCLA scoring drive and the stinking 3Q. Bo can't help guys tackle. 2 yard gains were turning into 7. 10 yard passing plays turned into 30. Players not filling holes, defensive lineman not getting any pressure that they were getting in the 1st half. (A little help from the zebrees by not calling holding penalties which i saw multiple of) That game could have been completely different with them finishing that sack on Hundley in the 2Q. Even in the 3Q, we had opportunities for stops, but players whiffed. Players got stupid cheapshot penalties. Seriously, how do you slow up not to hit the QB but then butt him with the crown of your helmet?

With the one exception of a boneheaded fake punt the coaching was sound. Players need to make plays. That simple.

Offensively, before I watched the game I thought maybe Beck tried to get cute in the 2nd half and he did, but the plays calls were decent, we had opportunities. Stupid penalties, T-mart not running when he should. Beck needed to call Cross's number a lot more in the 3Q and that was the one fault I had, but if some players make some plays the play calling wasn't bad.


Well if it on the players as you say then whose job is it to get them ready

There is a serious disconnection with game day and practice

Like something is missing!!! Coaches or players

I'm still so fucking pissed I can't see straight. We shouldn't have to teach a guy how to tackle anymore than we should be teaching our QB to throw a football at this level. We're setting them up to fail. These kids don't know any better because we've got no one to teach them the right way, I'm not blaming the kids

You can teach whatever players gotta buy into it and they Are not.

Plus I don't think we get that physical in practice

And we are mentally weak anytime something go wrong we fold up
This has happens since 09 remember vatech 4 n goal from near 40.

Team has changed players and yet same mistake it's on coaches

Would be 150% in support of Tressel or Frost



I would love to have Tressel here. He would be ten levels better than what we have now. I'll call him tomorrow to see if he would be interested in coming here! lol

Yes... 28-25 in 2011! True story! The 2013 game won't even be close. NW 37 NU 20, NU scoring late to make it appear somewhat close!

Hey hey now! Pelini's coaching makes me puke whenever Nebraska plays a slightly better than average team because we can bet it will be a blowout against us!

Whether not the vest would even consider it is another story, the rest of it is if the fan base/BMD's would be behind it

To be honest with you, I would be somewhat leery of Tressel because of the way he shielded the tattoo incident. There are other coaches I would rather have here at Nebraska.
