6 INTs in five quarters.. I think you gotta try O'Brien for a little while just to change things up. Lee has to be accountable.

How many times is Les Miles going to sigh at the end of something. 

We give him enough reason.  I'm sure he's *sigh* unhappy for his son, playing for a team this bad.

Cav sucks, who can we steal

[knapplc]

I hate so many things this team does. Failing to identify & pick up blitzes.  Failing to block on the perimeter.  Failing to play tight coverage in the secondary. Failing to put pressure on the QB.  Failing to dictate to the opponent on either side of the ball.

 

All that adds up to crappy football.  We're lucky to be 1-1 at this point, and we'll be lucky to be .500 at the end of the season if this keeps up.

 

 

What does this team do well?

He has every right to sigh--he allowed his kid to play in this s*** show.

Lee is EXACTLY who he was at Tulane. All of this "well, he was playing with a bad o-line" or "Pro scouts love him!" was a bunch of bullsh*t. Cue Denny Green. 

 

He still is playing with a bad o-line.

our o-line is terrible

 

Theyre not bad at pass protection. But are incredibly undisciplined 

[husker_fan_from_sweden]

After today I don't know how the hell anyone can call the Offensive line one of the strengths of this team. Cav needs to go. He is the last of the Riley holdovers from OSU that don't have what it takes to coach at UNL

Sadly the person they should take out at halftime they can't

Riley, Cav, Langs or Davis?

[srod68]

The entire line is crap!  So is Lee! ( No discipline )   Yes people! We are truly that bad of a football team! Get used to it!  This is what we will always be under this staff!  

[get huskin!]

Yeah....  Uhhhhh...  What in the PHUCH is going on?  It doesn't even MATTER what happens from here on out, does it?  I mean, this is such a debacle that it is almost IMPOSSIBLE to think this is a program going in the correct direction.  I thought last week that the 2nd half progress was praise worthy.  THIS stuff is sickening.  I agree that Lee be pulled. We need some things to change DRASTICALLY.

as bad as lee is looking...how much of that is due to all the preassure on him?  our line needs to do better.

This was said about the line the last couple of years, but it was not an acceptable excuse.

Lack of fundamentals?
