GGood night

Hopefully, we can regroup next week. We get Arkansas State.

Another shootout coming up. Arkansas St. scored over 30 against Oregon.

Let's hope they don't have a defense as good as UCLA's. I think we need to get back down to basics. Wrap up, pursuit angles, wrap up, wrap up, wrap up.

It's in Lincoln, we'll win by three!

That's a whole 9 points more than we won this game with!

My original thoughts about OSU in Columbus was a blowout loss. My thoughts have returned to that scenario.

 

[Exorbitant]

Where did anyone get the idea our defense was going to be good because of experience? Experienced average players doesn't mean shit.

On the other hand, maybe UCLA is way better than people think they are. We can only hope, that's all us Nebraska fans have left.

Nobody should be surprised by what we saw tonight. It was a breakdown (again) of the front lines, both offensive and defensive. If you can't play up front, it won't matter who you have in the back.

Until those soft bodies move on it will continue to be the demise of the team.

It ain't always the X's & O's. Sometimes it is the Jimmy's and Joe's.

Despite this we still had a shot at the end, until our coaches decide to do the same onside kick that will never work unless it's in a surprise type of situation. The ball has to have some bounce to increase the odds of recovering the damn thing.

Bingo

Attrition

NU's got a few clods that have been fixtures on this team and they haven't gotten any better over the years.

How many starts do Steinkuhler and Meredith have combined, over 60?

Time to move on from these two. It's as if they aren't even there..

 

[Brasky]

Well there's no reason not to fire barney cotton.


Good news 101.

 

[Red_Alert]

Jed makes a good point when challenging this coaching staff

Bo Pelini - No head coaching experience
Tim Beck - No Offensive Coordinator experience
John Papuchis - No Defensive Coordinator experience

 

[Brasky]

Hey it's easy to doubt when we're in the rough.

 

[Tomhusker]

in a month we'll be 4-1, coming of a team thumping of Wisconsin and talking about how we are gonna go into Columbus and crack the Bucknuts.

[chucksker]

so like...when do we fire someone?

 

[Exorbitant]

My parting shot... I'm not going to let a badly coached football team, {Nebraska} ruin my enjoyment of this college football season.

 

[Exorbitant]

My parting shot number two... UCLA with a redshirt freshman QB other freshmen on offense shredded our defense...

We can now forget about Pelini being an expert on defense. He's had plenty of time to get our defense to the point where they are good even in rebuilding years. They just plain SUCK now.
