Honest question as I am trying to see optimism in the future.  Our OL is all underclassmen.  Still no burners at receiver.  Maybe Coleman comes on?  Maybe the T-Bird Trio brings the sauce.  Just unsure how we improve next year with the same OL.  New coach wouldn't hurt.  D could be improved though.  

Idk

Believe it or not there was some good. We were beaten pretty much across the board however at most positions we were not completely out matched outside of about 3 or 4 positions that are complete black holes. That’s not going to cut vs a top 5 team, but this is probably the least talented team Nebraska has ever had in our lifetime and Rhule to even be 2 and 2 coming into this game is pretty good

We ended the game on a 7-0 run coulda had them if we had more time!

We can still win this

You wanted to run run run against every team.  I said that would not work against a good team.  Or do you have dementia 

 

Like I said have your mom read it to you if you cant

Like I said! 

Like I said

Screw this team didn’t even show up complete no show

Kemp has been solid

Defense got a stop but you got to wonder if Michigan pumped the brakes

Wasn’t expecting to win but thought the Defense would play better

More impressed with the offense then defense right now minus Cochran. Replace him with a good lineman and we Actually have a reasonable line

Not impressed at all with the defense 

Gonna be a blowout

Against average teams.  Some balance would help.  

We have well below average talent as what we should expect. Our line is nowhere close to where it needs to be. We are down to our 3 string running back. We have a walk on back up qb and no deep threat right now with wr. We still need to clean up some penalties and yet old school football and the option is working

Old school football still works and so does the option

Umm, that was 30 years ago, and even then we didn’t rely on the QB running the ball like we are this season. NU has already had to play 3 QB’s in 4 games due to QB’s picking up injuries. It’s not a recipe for long-term success.

 

I know you think NU needs to run the triple option like the military academies, but you will see how bad of an idea that is this coming Saturday against Michigan. 

I wouldn’t run the option like the academies don’t think anyone thinks that. I wouldn’t even run like Osborn did with almost a 3rd of the offense being the option. I would run the option a little more like solich as a speed option but I would only run it 10-15% of the time. I think rhule had a nice balance of when he uses it. Run it just enough to make teams have to prepare for it and run it just well enough we can even run it to the short side of the field. I would still revolve my offense around the power running game, and I would make up the difference of running the option less by passing more than we did back in the day and I would sprinkle in some trick plays. Until we get better in the passing game we will have to run it more. We don’t have to be an option team to have it be part of our identity, but I was reading an article it was talking about the old school is the now new school. A lot of the coaches and teams don’t even know how to prepare for the option as well as they use to and it was very difficult even when we did run it all the time and they would prepare for it every year they had to play us. Plus kids these days aren’t as disciplined as they were 30 years ago. Not advocating we should do what we did 30 years ago but it could be a part of what we do, but we will see what Rhule does with it. Right now it looks like it’s what’s working. We have basically a walk on backup qb, our top two running backs out, young wr and no downfield threat and a very shaky offensive line especially on the left side yet he is still managing to put out on the field a reasonable offense. Running the option has been a big part of that far under HH it has been our best play, I’m actually pretty impressed with what Rhule is doing considering what he has to work with. There’s a lot of potential here and we can certainly build on it

Ehhhh, the offense running stats, while keeping the team from disaster offensively, is not the recipe for future success when the QB represents such a large portion of those stats.  The team still struggles to get the RB’s going on a consistent basis vs relying a big chunk runs in order to have scoring drives.    

I’m not saying we are there yet it’s just the foundation. It’s a ways to go before we get a skyscraper. Nothing wrong with having the qb having a lot of rushing yds we won 3 natty”s doing that

Sims goofed up on the one snap he was given.  Nothing more needs to be seen.

 

Rhule would (still) be crazy to go with Sims.

 

Haarberg has earned the starting position fair and square.  I don't think we'll beat Michigan no matter who starts at QB.  With Haarberg there's at least a slight chance we won't get boatraced.  I think our defense actually matches up well against Michigan's offense.

Yeah it was literally the single dumbest thing I have ever seen from a qb in my life. Literally blows the whole butt fumble thing away for me. After everything that has gone on HH playing competently then you come in and that’s the first thing you do. He should be behind our 2nd string qb at This point and should only see the field at the end on games in blowouts

Long time fan, and just got enough courage to create a screen name.  At any rate, the blackshirts look unstoppable and I am loving what I see from the offense. RTB = Run the Ball. 

 

Homer take, but give Ruhle 2-4 years and we will dominate the B1G.  Tell me I am wrong comparing this team to the team the last 2-4 years. Just Sayin

We beat la tech by only 2 tds if you mean back to sucking I agree

Definitely a crappy game
