Just too typical of a 1st half for Bo. Turnover margin is the difference in the game and Bo has only had a positive TO margin one year at NU in 2009. Negative TO margin the other 5.

Sloppy, sloppy, sloppy.

That is not by accident, that shows where coaching priorities are

I see where you're coming from, but I figure these coaches probably assumed these players knew that holding onto the f'ing ball was essential at this level and maybe they had learned that by now. But hey, f#*k the game plan and weight training, scheme, and execution. Maybe we just work on holding on the football and hope the rest works itself out. At this point, it isn't the worst idea I've ever heard.

First half was a comedy of errors. And not a funny comedy.

 

[whateveritis1224]

Abdullah was in on the fumbled option, just not the option guy he was out front blocking.

Once again we have to play from behind, expect nothing less at this point, they'll either fold or dig deep and go get what they want. A trip to Indy is all that's on the line guys................up to you if you want to get it together and make it there. Simple as that.........

Absolutely. How bad do these guys want it? This game isn't over.

If they come out and march down the filed to score a TD, this game will be over. We'll see if Pelini can light a fire under these kids arses or not fairly quickly. I have my doubts after how we started and played the first half as these kids have to know what this game means.

yeah that

Another big game and another game which the players are not ready....hello coach, anyone there

Actually it looks like the majority of the players were ready. O-Line is creating space for us, D has made some nice plays. Just the mistakes of 3 people that have changed this game.

4 people, you can the nimrod that sub'd AA out for newby

AA was in the game, genius. It was a diamond formation...

What 2nd half adjustments do you make?

I would like to see more D pressure than ever before. NU needs a TO to help the O. Pressure, pressure, pressure

More pressure, on every down. Feed AA the ball and then play action off of that.

Was it Gigli with Jlo and Ben Affleck??

Who says we are out and down? Last year going into this game in the fourth quarter we were down by ten. If we cut the turnovers out we still have a shot in the second half. No need to be Debbie downers and arm chair quarterbacks quite yet.

Nah, our defense will be rested enough to shut them down I feel. But if we give up another turnover that leads to points, then it's over

He's been here 6 years - has he ever been able to 'light a fire?

 

[BIGREDIOWAN]

Our defense needs to get a turnover, right off the bat, put our offense in better field position. They get a score that'll help with confidence...........

 

[MLB 51]

Actually quite surprised the O-Line has been as good as it has.

 

[Amac3309]

Have to get a score from the D or ST, or it will be nearly impossible, oh and get off the field on 3rd down, especially the first series
