So the talk about him looking into the Tenn job is a wrong rumor?

Rice playing for Baltimore comes to mind.....

"they threw some things at us we hadn't seen in the game film.......we didn't execute.......we were out-coached.........it all falls on me and my coaching staff....." did I miss anything?

Disagree all you want. In the aftermath of that loss, people wanted Osborne fired, they were down on the program, and this state was in a funk for a year. People will forget about this loss soon enough. It's just another of many for Pelini. But that 1983 loss stuck with people for a long time. It was different. People aren't going to forget about this loss soon. You don't get humiliated like that in a conference championship game and forget about it. I'm not saying this is the worst loss ever, but it is really, really bad. I think this loss was really hard for us because we had some hope that things were changing and improving. Things were finally falling our way. We had a chance to be champions again and it has been a long time. We have been so close in the last 10 years but seems just a bit out of our grasp. A loss is a loss sure, but a blowout really is disheartening in that we were never close in the game. Yet another year goes by and another wait until next year. We do have the bowl game but this loss makes it seem a bit meh leaving us just hoping we make a somewhat decent showing. I'm going to agree with that. We thought we had improved vastly from our first meeting whereas Wisky had lost several games. We thought our defense was much better. We thought our offense was the cat's meow. We thought Wisky was hurting and on the way down since they had to back into the championship game by way of default. What we forgot was to game plan for anything other than Ball running up the gut. We got beat by a 7-5 team using their 3rd string QB. No other excuse.

I still can't believe the difficulties the coaching staff had with in-game adjustments this year. I was at the UCLA game and watched them get beat repeatedly on that dang swing pass to the back out of the backfield. Every time they ran it, it was like the defense was seeing it for the first time in the game. They couldn't make an adjustment to counter it. Tonight was no different. They ran the ball wide, had success, and stuck with it. We didn't adjust. Finally, when the game was out of reach, Wisky started to run the ball up the gut, and still no one could stop them. On offense, they had the formation where the ends stayed in their stance and the rest of the line and LBs were standing up. We couldn't make any adjustments with the O-line or call any type of screen pass to counter it. It seems like in the big games, Pelini practices up one single portion for the game and anything else thrown at them completely leaves them baffled. Then you hear it in the post-game....."they threw some things at us we didn't expect......we didn't execute......we were out-coached........." when is enough enough Pelini? Get some experienced staff members around you.

Is the postgame over? Looking for a link or something to it.

2 guys over 200 yards rushing, a third guy over 100. Nah, the defense is fine Pelini......let it ride. He won't admit that having Poop as DC was a total bust.

Beaten! No other explanation. All phases of the game. Every play. Varsity vs Freshmen.

To the OSU fans, sorry NU represented so well in the game and let a 3rd place team in the 'leaders' division win the whole she-bang. Pathetic. I know.

Yeah, here's to Nebraska being a consistently almost-mediocre team. Let's party like it's 1999 just for the team becoming bowl eligible. Let's not even think about winning a conference championship, let alone a national championship. Let's just give up all hope. It's not the attitude of the fans who have high expectations that sucks. It's the attitude of fans like you. so 10-2 is almost mediocre? And let me appologize to all of Husker Nation for being such a disgrace to the entire football program. What was that earlier about personal attacks? 10-2 against how many patsy teams? Barely won the games that were considered against our equals. Of course we beat the snot out of the 'lesser' teams. We won't win the hard games under Pelini with his inexperienced coaching staff and failure to game plan. Did they really think Wisky was just going to try and run it up the gut? I mean, that's the kind of stuff WE try on offense. We bang our heads against a wall and wonder 'why didn't that work last time. Maybe this time it will". Unbelievable.

Annnnnnnnd Stafford is out of position watching the play go by him.....again.

I didn't even think about this being Wisky's 3rd string QB. How pathetic.

Jam Martinez into the ground like that. No flag. Bell blocks a guy, flag. Yeah, that's about it.

Ohio State comes to mind. TT and CU back in the day. And anything related to Callahan.

I think he needs to approach Pelini and tell him that NU is going to hire experienced and professional O and D coordinators. Quit giving the new guy a shot. Get some experience in there and turn this train wreck around.
