This team is going to be fine.

-We had a very predictable gameplan for wyo, and i am sure we will for southern miss as well. We don't want to show anything to UCLA.

-Zaire and Afalava did not play. 2 starters that would of made a big difference. I'm sure they'll be back next week.

-Our defense is only going to get better every week as the young guys gain experience.

-The Wyo game may actually wake our team up, and guys will go harder at practice.

-Our running game is one of the best in the country.

Thanks for the post, im glad it has its own thread, much better than just in the general discussion or the other 30 threads about the same thing.

I agree with the last point, Imani Cross is my spirit animal, but the rest is speculation. But I hope it's true!

It's hard to imagine things getting much worse! Wait, wasn't that the official HuskerBoard mantra this offseason?

Two words: learning curve.

Damn! you must be really bummed about yesterday's game. That's some serious sarcasm!

A lot of people here need to step down from the ledge.

I would be okay with Beck slowing down the play calling when we come to face UCLA. Keep our offense on the field, grinding yards and the clock and keeping our young, inexperienced defense off the field. We are good enough on offense to do this.

If we keep scoring quickly, that only gives our defense a disadvantage by having more chances to fail. IMO

This is exactly what I'd expect him to do if you watch our game film vs Nevada. It was only 17-13 at the half because Fajardo did a really good job of moving the chains and keeping our offense off the field. It wasn't until we got a few stops that the floodgates opened in the second half.

Was this our plan last year?

Would you rather we expose our whole playbook just so we could crush Wyoming?

No but this was the same mantra people used last year before playing UCLA. It worked out amazingly well for us.

 

[Blackshirts007]

He's got a point. Rewatch the game. Do you know what I saw? Read option, speed option, strong toss, power I, and a few play action pass plays. Over and over and over and over and over again.

There were a few things that we really didn't want to show to Wyo that we had to to win the game. No biggie. Id rather practice those things against a team with a dual threat QB than go into UCLA with no game experience using certain things.

There had to be a lot of stuff missing because most of the game Wyo was primed to get burned on PA. 7 and 8 in the box with single high safety, there's no way they could have stopped us vertically if we took a couple shots.
