International Man of Mystery
I'm not going to post the bickering between the players and the fans. There are some true idiots out there tweeting some truly idiotic things at the players, and some players responding. That's.... whatever. I don't care.
Some stats, some quotes, and some seriously troubling conjecture coming out right now:
@Steve_Warren96
@damonbenning @foreman5655 @TouchdownTommie @jasonpeter @TonyOrtiz37 nothing to come weak about. We got man handled. A spade is a spade.
@Steve_Warren96
@foreman5655 @jasonpeter @damonbenning @TouchdownTommie @TonyOrtiz37 they lined up and said your front 7 can't stop us.
@Steve_Warren96
@jasonpeter @foreman5655 @damonbenning @TouchdownTommie @TonyOrtiz37 this is shameful.
@Steve_Warren96
@JustinTWayne @TouchdownTommie @TonyOrtiz37 @damonbenning @foreman5655 crazy when people are looking forward to husker BBall over FB! Lol
@RalphDBrown
It seems like teams that use the Brett Bielema blueprint have success versus Huskers.
@RalphDBrown
Embarrassing losses for the Huskers have been the story of the Bo Pelini era. This stings. #NoFight
@RalphDBrown
Minnesota only stopped themselves the entire day on offense.
@foreman5655
@TouchdownTommie @damonbenning @jasonpeter @Steve_Warren96 @TonyOrtiz37 if I hear any of my former teammates coming weak with what they saw
@foreman5655
@TouchdownTommie @damonbenning @jasonpeter @Steve_Warren96 @TonyOrtiz37 I'm slapping tha sh#t outta of em ASAP. Get ready
@JoshHarveyFOX
Quincy Enunwa on if he was surprised by his drops today? "It didn't surprise me, I wasn't focused this game." #Nebraska #Huskers
@JoshHarveyFOX
Enunwa went on to say that he needs to figure out how to pick himself up when he's in a hole. "Drops can get in your head."
@JoshHarveyFOX
Enunwa: "As a leader, I can’t let that happen. I have to use my hands better than I did today. I can go out and play better.” #Huskers
@dirkchatelain
Vincent Valentine hadn't practiced as well as Curry/Randle. That's why he barely played.
@HuskerExtraBC
Have to say this though: Ameer Abdullah is a heckuva player. Nineteen yards from 1,000 already. #Huskers
@HuskerExtraBC
#Huskers really thought they'd hit Gophers big in passing game. But consider this: Only 139 passing yards, and 71 came in first three mins.
@HuskerExtraBC
Bo: "Let's not go there and act like Taylor Martinez lost this football game for us. Our problems today we're far beyond who our (QB) was."
@HuskerExtraBC
"I'm talking basic football," Pelini said, "basic football that we couldn't execute and we didn't execute." #Huskers
@L__Lee
#Huskers have dropped 8 games to unranked teams and have a 8-10 record vs ranked opponents in the Bo Pelini era.
@L__Lee
3 of those wins vs ranked opponents came in 2009. 2009: 3-2, 2010: 2-2, 2011: 2-3, 2012: 1-2, 2013: 0-1 #Huskers
@swmckewonOWH
Quincy Enunwa said Nebraska's offense had a bad week of practice and Beck pulled him aside this week to address it.
@swmckewonOWH
TM declined to say what went wrong in the passing game. Asked what we saw from his perspective, he said said "next question."
@swmckewonOWH
Asked why he didn't have coaches clarify that it wasn't turf toe, he said it was "simpler" to say it was. #Huskers
@Blake_Lawrence
If Nebraska's base 4-3 defense can't stop Minnesota's 2 TE or 2 RB setup on this drive it is not due to play calling. Pure heart/discipline
This one stood out to me and gets its own little box. Agree with Mr. Lawrence 100%.
@Sean_Callahan
Most interesting thing we learned in the post game today was Taylor Martinez has "more than turf toe" and is not at 100 percent.
@Sean_Callahan
He wouldn't go into his injury, but said it's the two toes next to his big toe and it happened vs. Wyoming. Also still bothered by shoulder.
@Sean_Callahan
The loss wasn't even close to being on him. NU's defense couldn't get stops, the line didn't protect and WR's dropped passes
@Sean_Callahan
RT @GophersNow: Abdullah has the most yards rushing (164) against the #Gophers since Le'Veon Bell had 266 in a loss to MSU last season.
@JonNyatawa
Nebraska's offense ran 60 total plays vs Minn. The #Huskers hadn't finished a game w/ less than 70 snaps this yr. Averaged 78.3 coming in
@JonNyatawa
Quincy Enunwa: "As a team, we're not stunned. We played terribly. Whenever you play terribly, anybody can beat you" #Huskers
@JonNyatawa
DBs coach Terry Joseph: "It doesn't take a genius to see that they studied the Wisconsin championship game film a ton" #Huskers
@GrantMuessel
Scary thought: Every opponent left on Nebraska's schedule is probably better than Minnesota, excluding Northwestern maybe.
@GrantMuessel
10 Minnesota plays on first down went for 10 yards or more. 19 plays went for 5 yards or more. #Huskers
@GrantMuessel
CORRECTION: Minnesota averaged 8.1 yards per play ON FIRST DOWN in the first half. 14 of those plays were runs, 2 were passes.
@GrantMuessel
In the second half, Gophers averaged 7.2 yards per play on first down. 12 of those were runs, 5 were passes. #Huskers
@GrantMuessel
Want to be even more staggered? 59% of Minnesota's total yards came on first down. Yikes.
@GrantMuessel
When I asked Taylor Martinez what his current pain to. He said it's like the pain from the tail end of his freshman year. (cont)
@GrantMuessel
This Spring, I asked Taylor to describe the pain at the end of the season: (Against Texas A&M) ....
@GrantMuessel
"Every time I got hit was like the worst pain I've ever felt in my life."
@GrantMuessel
Minnesota reaches bowl eligibility with the win over Nebraska. #Huskers aren't yet bowl eligible.
@HuskerExtraSip
"Obviously we have to look at the tape," #Huskers DL coach Kaczenski said. "But it just didn't look like we were playing with a lot of pop."
@HuskerExtraSip
"We couldn't stop the power," Rick Kaczenski said. "If you can't stop the power in this league, you'll have long Saturdays." #Huskers
@HuskerExtraSip
Said Pelini: "I thought they out-physicalled us ... That was the most disappointing thing." #Huskers
@HuskerExtraSip
Pelini was adamant that you can't hang this loss on Martinez. "Taylor was the least of our problems," Bo said. #Huskers
@HuskerExtraSip
Said Pelini: "This game comes down to blocking and tackling. We didn't do either very well." #Huskers
@HuskerExtraSip
Yes, Minnesota threw some wrinkles at #Huskers 'D,' but "it wasn't anything mind-boggling," Pelini said.
@HuskerExtraSip
Bo Pelini says defense got pushed around and had "way too many breakdowns." #Huskers
@HuskerExtraSip
Taylor Martinez said "every time I push off (on left foot), it feels like there's a shock." #Huskers
@HuskerExtraSip
Martinez is not 100 percent, he said. His left shoulder also is ailing. Foot and shoulder were injured against Wyoming, he said. #Huskers
@HuskerExtraSip
Taylor Martinez says it's not turf toe. It's his second and third toes that are hurt. Fractured? "I'm not going to say," he said. #Huskers
