13 pass attempts, 20 rush attempts. That's the good.

Defense took Kalu out of the game. Mitch Leidner is 16/17 which is funny, but not surprising.

Huskers are up 24-14, and it's been a mostly productive half. Can't complain too much about it.

Though 6-10 points did get left off the board and our defense got beat up on the ground as well as through the air.

 

[VectorVictor]

So no penalties against us that half, right?

I'm pretending it didn't happen so that it isn't completely opposite in the second half.

ANOTHER IMPRESSIVE FIX BY RILEY!!!!

 

[grandpasknee]

That Newby was Ozig-and- zag-boing during the first half!!!

 

[Husker67]

Meanwhile, Derrick Henry and Alabama are opening up a can on TAMU

how or why is aTm ranked 9?

Need we remind you...they're in the SEC

They're ranked #9 so when Bama blows them out it looks better for Nick and company

Yeah but Ole Miss loss keeps looking worse

That just gets written off as "life in the SEC". If that happens in another conference it's the death knell for the losing team

 

[Whs from cb]

Question: Do you think the coaching staff is calling running plays because of all the talk in Nebraska or other reasons?

They got beat by 2 WR reverses. You take Maye's 2 att for 21 yards off the board and Minnesota has 30 yards on 12 attempts.

And getting beat through the air...well that's not too surprising and I mentioned that. I'll say we left 7 points off the board in the first half (missed FG and long drive ending in a FG rather than a TD). Still it's hard to complain about drives ending in points.

I don't like that we have a porous secondary because it means we've never put a game away. We'll see what happens in the 2nd half.

They read huskerboard.

I saw Tommie Armstrong have his heel come out of his shoe after a 1st down run...I think he should be replaced. I've not seen any of the younger QBs almost lose their shoes yet.!

nah it's just the AAC is the second best conference. ESPN says so

Leidner on route to throw for 300 yards.

I would hope they are calling more running plays because it works, they've seen it work, they've had Armstrong throwing all over the place the last two weeks, so run because it gives us a better chance to win. I would like to think it is because they actually made some adjustments, I hope we are not giving them too much credit.

another update SDSU giving Pelini fits again. SDSU 17-2 against youngstown st.

 

[krc1995]

Really, we should've rolling by more. Left at least 10 out there

It was the way things need to be.
