Shocking.  The fact that Jurgens has been allowed to go on as long as he has with the snaps is just plain terrible.

Funny how that works, when lunging for a wildly errant snap isn’t part of the play.


I think it's also a trust thing. AM doesn't trust Jurgens to get the snap right so even when it's good he's off.

Let's go with that reverse pitch play again. And misdirection roll outs to spring Wan'Dale outside.

Work the ball to the outside - inside isn't working. Do it over and over till they begin to stop it and then go the QB Wrap up-the-middles.

Let's go, boys!
Let's hit a couple deep passes. We could even do the Solich thing of calling the same play twice in a row.

Luke's fielded his share in a short amount of time back there too.  As a coach I don't know how you do that to not only your qb's but your team letting bad snaps on offense to just continue.

Jurgens should stay away from the center position...enough is enough.

Yeah, it makes you wonder how many quickdraws were due to lousy snaps.

 
Pretty even first half across the board.

These teams have been very even the past several years. The difference is, Nebraska has made mistakes and Iowa is way more disciplined.

If we can stop shooting our own foot, we can beat these guys.

Have to admit, this is the most encouraged I’ve been going into a half save for the penn state game. Now if we could come out ready to play after halftime we have a great shot at knocking off iowa.

 
I just saw the score 13-13 flash on the screen here at halftime and I about had to pinch myself.  That's kind of sad but at this point I'll take it.  We're still in the game.

 
I just hope we have a second half of football in us.  What more could Frost possibly need to motivate and keep a team focused for the last 30 minutes?

 
Funny to say, but Iowa needs to switch up their play calling and run a few new concepts to get rolling. Iso, counter, and maybe through in a sweep to get Nebraska off balance. They probably aren't going to win through the air today the way this is going.

When we were down 10-0 and they had the ball, I thought it was over. Credit to the defense for hanging tough and keeping the score within reach.

 
We all know what is coming though. A bad turnover and some comically bad play calling that leaves us just short again. Hope we can all laugh at this after this is over, but we have seen this story all too many times.

 
Hopefully we have a couple plays for McCaffrey to run or catch since that seems to work out pretty well.
