Just going through the motions aren't you defense?

I hope when Minny comes to town, it's a night game. These early games suck

 

[Danimal]

D looks like crap. No containment, not tackling. Did they they think the game was over at halftime?

AA comes in and BOOM, score out of the diamond.

Beck would be the smartest OC in FBS if he would read this board every week. Diamond needs to be more prominent in this O with teams stuffing the box to stop AA.

The reason that diamond formation works so well is because it's a balanced formation. We can make an audible and no one has to shift. That is why Osborne loved to use balanced sets out of the I-Formation, Ace, and Shotgun.

It also puts so many weapons and speed in the backfield that the defense is really pretty much screwed when we use it.

preach it...

I just don't understand why we don't see it 9 or 10 times a game...

Man. As good as our defense has looked.for a majority of the game, this letting up is making the game look much closer than it actually is

Are people impressed by this? This bad football. Rutgers is likely to lose out. Not a championship mentality and it starts up top.

 

[presidentjlh]

Whatever, gives Ameer a chance for 300.

 

[QMany]

Saw Love in there. DL backups in too?

 

[CheeseHusker]

Nice practice drive.

 

[Abdullah the Butcher]

Purdue will most likely be 11 am also.

 

[It'sNotAFakeID]

Don't like giving up garbage TDs, of which there has been 2. We're still going to win this game, but this lack of intensity needs to be addressed this week in practice.

Most of the team/coaches did.

 

[NebraskaHarry]

WHAT THE F ARE OUR COACHES DOING?

... I understand you want to get players game time and experience, but this isn't the time to do it.

 

[Danimal]

Did you think you didn't need to play anymore with Nova out?

 

[ithinkiloverg44]

Frustrating to give up that TD.

Yep. But the defense has been above average today save the last couple drives with the game in hand. As a fan base we.want more but as a team this is what we needed to do. Win get better win again and repeat
