What the F*** are we doing with the GD throws?

Going 0-4 on 3rd against the worst team against the 3rd in FBS.....

Everyone can say we need to pound the rock, but outside of Armstrongs 2 big ones....we have gone nowhere on the ground

That doesn't mean you wave the white flag and go air raid for the rest of the game.

Sweeps, draw, option, counter, those would work. Purdue crashing the box on first step.

No we only run it up the gut so Langs can throw on 3rd and 2.

 

[It'sNotAFakeID]

We are going to get our teeth kicked in the next two weeks.

 

[CheeseHusker]

I'd say run it like crazy but there doesn't seem to be any OL push either.

Bottom line - losing badly in the trenches on both sides of the ball to a team that has no business doing it.

 

[Big red surfers]

We will end up running the ball 60-65% of the time and that will destroy Purdue down the stretch.

I'm sorry you make little to no sense in your posts.

You're probably right. I guess I'm addressing the people that think we can line up and run hb iso plays 10x in a row for a TD like its 1983

 

[JJ Husker]

124th against the run. If we can't block and run against Purdue, we're screwed. Oline needs to man up and do something.

 

[VectorVictor]

Is this a case of Langsdorf not wanting to put plays on film or something?

Huh?

Newby has a 11 yard carry and he's averaging 3.4 yards.

Commitment to the run means sticking with it when is starts a little slow, not just sticking with it when it's off to a hot start.

 

[Jonathan Paul]

Where is the offensive front. They're playing like school girls

 

[It'sNotAFakeID]

The worst #8 team ever.

 

[lo country]

I started a thread earlie about Wisky and Iowa. With this sh!t show, those games now terrify me.

 

[BIGREDIOWAN]

I'm getting sick of watching our defensive line get zero pressure too............their offensive line is owning us somewhat.

 

[84HuskerLaw]

Apparently Ozigbo is a decoy and can't actually play. Obviously we cant block their defensive line. Our O line is so badly hurt (apparently) that we are merely pretending to have a starting unit out there. If we can't average 3.3 yards per play running the ball vs. Purdue, we are still in DEEP trouble against a good opponent. Gonna get ugly if we don't take over now. Sadly, it doesn't look like we are going to be able to move the ball. Armstrong is going to have to run the dam ball instead of throw it away. Can't afford incompletes.
