If you'll research it, you'll see that Oregon State gave up huge passing numbers also, but I believe Nebraska has better secondary athletes. Also, you can say what you want about Charlie Strong being a big time hire, but I sure can think of a few that would be more of big time hires. One or two assistant upgrades may eventually turn Nebraska into a power again, the same could be said about Bo's staff.

It's pretty obvious that the secondary looks even more confused than they did at the start of the season. Coaching maybe?
Why don't you research it and figure out whether Oregon State's passing defense was really that bad. Care to guess where they finished in the PAC last year?

Yes a rough day for the defensive secondary for sure. Is it because of ~
A). Young players and confusion
B). Poor defensive scheming
C). Poor play -- Nate Gerry getting pwned often for example
D). Bad coaching of talented players, or
E). All of the above - a perfect storm so to speak?

we can all jump on the Obama wagon and say things are okay and will get more gooder --- to believe lies to cover loss and hic-cups and cover our ego's for what we see is foolish ---period

Riley and staff is a complete joke --POPS

What's even more fun is Texas fans have to listen to Cunningham during this pivotal game.

Remember Pelini's first year here? How much his Defense struggled and then later on they just started getting better? In 2008 they were straight awful. 2009, best Defense ever.

My point is that it's a new coach, new system. I expect our pass D will get better as the year goes on.

Could also get better as players gain experience.

D was on the field an awful lot in the 3rd. Set things up for a bad 4th when you got a thin D. Saw good things through 3 though.

Time to start putting 4 qtrs together. The games matter now.

TCU's Defense is trash garbage

TCU has run 82 plays through 3 fucking quarters.

That stat has to be wrong.

Also it's good to see the all time biggest Diva in Aaron Green showing out for TCU.

Was a straight up drama queen the whole time he was here. We can't all be Ameer Abdullah bud. Doesn't mean you have to make a scene and transfer talking about how much you miss Texas.
