Nebraska vs Illinois Week

[tometom]

yea, OWH started limiting how many articles you can see on their site. i quoted the important part about VV and MC. i agree with you, but just doesn't seem like something you should say about a former player, because what's that really accomplish for you?

PFF's early-season All-American team

Chris Jones at corner.

Gerry has the nation’s top coverage grade at 92.1 and he’s done a fine job of cutting down on the missed tackles that have plagued him in the past – he’s made all but one of his 26 tackle attempts.

Someone has way too much time on their hands grading out all these players.

They also seem to like Nebraska players...they had Utter graded out as one of the top centers in the B1G after Oregon.

Sounding like we are a little thin on the O-line this week. Cole Conrad is the back up across the line.

As long as getting the ball to the QB isn't part of their grading system for centers I can believe that. Tommy works harder at getting the snap than he does at anything else.

It was before that game that he was terrible snapping, but still...our interior OL hasn't been great this year and he's struggled at times. I think "Best in the B1G" is rather generous.

i don't recall any bad snaps against the first 3 opponents. Someone had mentioned it being the rough "grass" field at Northwestern as a possible cause, which kinda makes sense as i played some center in HS.

That's what I thought too. I'll be paying close attention.

When you're snapping the ball into your own ass, there's something going on there. That's bush league.

Zo Moore is out with the shoulder injury. I get the sense that this is going to be a nagging injury throughout the remainder of the season. Hope he gets it taken care of enough to where he doesn't miss any more games. That guy is too talented and deserves to be on the field for his senior year.

that one he snapped into his own ass, looked to me like he though TA was under center. but having played center, its not hard to tell the difference between a guy in shotgun and right behind you. i didn't rewind to look at it again, so who knows.

 

[Tomhusker]

I'm pretty sure I saw several high and low snaps through all games so far. Maybe my idea of a good snap is unrealistic?

 

[tometom]

your memory is just better than mine. i just don't remember the issue in the 1st three games, i'm not saying they didn't happen, but normally in my takeaways of how NU could get better, if there were multiple bad snaps I'd remember it.
