Abdullah can't hold on to the rock to save his life.
Sad but true. I like to see Marlowe field one, run up about 10 yards then throw a lateral across the field back to Abdullah. Maybe he could catch that.

LOL not much has changed. This was last year about a week from the day.

I shouldn't post in this thread because I'm too positive!

Regarding the coaching of NU's secondary.

I give Terry Joseph an A-

Pass Efficiency Defense 18th
Pass Defense 10th
Sacks 8th (assuming these are coverage sacks)

However, when you throw in other categories the grade drops to a C+

That NU only has 3 INT's this season tells me there is a lot of time spent on X's and O's and very little spent on fundamentals such as catching the ball and open field tackling.

Dropping INT's is merely giving the opponent 2nd chances and is near equivalent of a turnover.
Although the front 7 are primarily responsible for stopping the run, missing tackles in the secondary contributes to NU being 71st in Scoring Defense.

If Nebraska drives all the way down the field on the first drive and settles for a FG again, than I predict that extra 4 points we lose will result in a loss.

:dhd: You can not lose something you didn't have to begin with.....

For your negative nanciness to pan out, we would have to score a TD only to have it nullified by BIG ref's with blinders and then settle for a field goal. :pb:

The last two games Nebraska settled for FGs on their first drive. If that happens against Wiscy, we will lose.

Is that better? lol


I just want to get the negative out before game time!

Sort of......

Fer negativeness, I could live with that.

I would have a very hard time dealing with an epic team meltdown though. If we come out and play a solid game and come up alittle short, I'd be disappointed but could accept that.
Team meltdown=unacceptable.

That's about as negative as I'm gonna get, because I know in my heart of heart's: That we will not lose this game.
