Norhusker Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 This has probably been brought up, but I have not seen it as a main topic. Forgive me if it has. I have been buried at work. Article below: http://www.omaha.com/huskers/football/husker-offensive-line-veterans-adjusting-to-life-with-new-qb/article_26e3f514-2b90-510a-96bc-196f830af9f4.html I think this can only help out our offense becoming more attuned when playing against the 3-4 aka the badgers. Practicing against our ones in a 3-4 alignment will give us a lot of pregame preparation IMO. I really think we have an excellent chance at beating them this year especially here at home this year. GBR! 1 Quote Link to comment

dvdcrr Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 This defensive switch is more about the coach than the alignment change, and Diaco is absolutely top notch. Yes it will be harder for them to score from now on. Quote Link to comment
ScottyIce Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 No, if the sole reason we beat them will be because of a 3-4 defense? Last year our D played well against them. Plus, they get to practice against a 3-4 defense all year long. So that alone doesn't make a difference for us. Now Diaco as the coordinator of that defense? Possibly. Quote Link to comment
Red_Payne Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 In all seriousness... We have had trouble finding dominant front 7 players the past couple years. We have, however, had an easier time finding LBs over DLs. However, w/ a 3 man line, it seems the DLs need to be more specialized; I'm confident Diaco can find guys with the right build and mold them into proper starters. 3-4 can only help us beat Wisc, as I cant see us performing worse defensively against the badgers.

Now our offense gets to practice against it, too, so it should help our offense out 1 Quote Link to comment

We beat them if we stop the run, which is the reason we lost last year. You cannot give up 200 something yards on the ground and expect to win any game. 2 Quote Link to comment

Eh, I'm not sure our defense played all that well. We held them to 23 points but that probably said more about their offense - or lack thereof - than our defense. We gave up 223 yards rushing. And over half of that was to a guy who came to campus as a walk-on defensive back. 1 Quote Link to comment

We held them to 23 points but that probably said more about their offense - or lack thereof That's what I've been saying about Wisconsin - people have been overlooking just how bad their offense was last year. Can their defense - now lead by a guy that's only been a coach for one single season - bail them out again? Quote Link to comment

I don't entirely disagree with this, but at the same time, our defense did essentially as well if not better than LSU, MSU, OSU, and PSU's defense did against Wisconsin. Quote Link to comment

They must really believe in him though, maybe just tired of losing DC's Quote Link to comment
