Whatever we do against UCLA in week 3 is going to tell us the story of how this season is going to go.

Wyoming is one of those teams that everyone is going to overlook, and anyone who knows anything about College Football knows that they were going to have a hell of an Offense this season.

With that said, Nebraska shouldn't have been challenged quite like that. It was not a good game tonight, that is a fact. We underperformed.....fact. Offensively we did some good things, Defensively we did very few good things.

But bottom line, we will know what we know after the UCLA game. Improvements may be made. Let's wait and see, and then start to melt down a little bit more.

Pretty much summed up the game

Ucla will tell us everything and that scares me

Bc what wyo did is exactly what ucla did last year
Motion still kills us easy crossing an slant routes killed us.

Offense looked alittle off and not explosive and that what really scares me i expected growing pains defense wise but offense was quiet tonite smith stole the show and almost the game.

Simplify on defense seriously bo it's clear they can't grasp it make it easier
DL was awful and put no pressure Gregory was nice tho. If we cannot create pressure doesn't matter how good the back and secondary is.

Guess the silver lining is we got a taste of what ucla will do so they know how to handle it but bo making adjustment will be the key and I don't trust that at all. Motion and full spread still baffles him:L

Let's hope for the best looks like some tough tight games coming

I feel like this thread was very necessary beings that 50% of ye were posting "we are still the best!" and 50% of ye were posting "we are screwed!"

Someone had to post reality. I did it.

Well fuck. It was. We knew UCLA was the benchmark game, but now it becomes scary.

I was scared out of my mind for that UCLA game many moons ago......

But I am just always scared when we play big time games. I feel like we have some seriously negative mojo or some shit when it comes to those games.

If we manage to beat UCLA, we should all feel very VERY fucking good.

Biggest question

How do you revamp or turn up the DL!

If the defense doesn't improve immensely, we'll have to score in the 70s to beat UCLA. True story!

We won't have to wait until the UCLA game to figure out what our seasons going to be like. If we give up that much offense against So. Miss., figure about a 6-6 season. So. Miss. was pretty much at the bottom of the football pile last year, if they make a game of it, (seeings how Wyoming wasn't exactly a winner last year either), we're in deep doo doo.

too many threads. don't know where to post.

agree defense needs to improve immensely. They've got to figure out something on the DL to stop the run. they are just getting manhandled in there. Now there also looked to be quite a bit of holding not getting called, that's one of the worst things about football is the holding on the line play.

Ain't that the truth. Just pull that one out and we can tread water long enough for the defense to start clicking come November.

The most concerning thing was the secondary play. I expected us to be fine there and it was god awful. These are mostly the same guys... Wtf happened???

The schemes are too complicated for college players?

Papuchis looked like a DC who knew his job clock just started ticking. That guy needs to get his shit together quick.

i didn't think secondary was awful. They had 2 interceptions SJB was pretty darn good. I thought they were right there in most of their coverages, smith just fit that ball in some windows a lot of QBs can't which is even easier when your DL isn't getting any pressure. They took some bad angles and were horrible in run support, but they are always horrible in run support because they are looking at receivers and not the QB/RB.

When qb has a day to throw doesn't matter if you have a good secondary or not

One other thing... The fuck is up with the defensive fronts?? We're lining up 2-3 yds off the LOS in these odd looking fronts.

I mean I've seen it before but it was every play. Was it their splits on OL or were we trying to dictate? Whatever the reason, that shit ain't working.

Lets call it like it is he's bo puppet and scapegoat

His face last night scared me so did bo.

It's clear your scheme are too hard dumb that shit down

Southern miss loss to Texas state 22-15
So if we play the eagle next week and they put up 24-28 pts then bring out the heavy scotch
It's all on the DL no pressure in the pass game getting gashed in the run

It doesn't matter what you have at lb or secondary if your DL isn't doing its job then your fucked.



My last point on this game:
The blueprint to expose bo defense is out wyo fans were talking upset on their board stating about the wisky game we laughed it off. But we still can't stop motions and teams spreading us out sideline to sideline. It was the mission of teams last year and it will be this year. Spread us out and attack with balance. Looking back at last night game it was on the DL... Not lb not secondary
