1. TA and Alex Henery must be related; both have ice running through their veins. Completely unfazed by the Big House. 2. The D. Just outstanding for 4 quarters. Bo always said execute and read your keys; here are the results when they do that. 3. Special teams need to improve. 4. Offense needs to get healthy. They played great all things considered but we can't afford much more. 5. Who said we didn't know how to make adjustments? Off topic- Anybody know how many close games/comebacks Bo has had at Nebraska?

Usually I'm all in for Gameday coming to Lincoln, but I like how focused this team is right now and I don't want anything to change.

Also, 3-27 3rd down defense since that TD. That is absolutely crazy.

336 offensive yards allowed since NW went up 14-7. That's in 7 quarters total.

Dat D doh...

Shuck you B1G! Throw the f'n flag on those face masks! This is absolutely ridiculous!

Call a timeout with 10 seconds left in the 3rd quarter? Good call announcer...

Take away Michigan's one FG drive and they have -1 offensive yards. Good job D.

Somebody cut off Lewan's fingers on his right hand...

Here's a positive stat- After the first two NW drives for TD's,(both drives went for 75 yards) the D only gave up 161 total yards. They only averaged 11.5 yards per drive during that time span, while during that time span we turned the ball over four times. 10 of NW's points came off turnovers starting at our 38 and our 7. Lastly,(and most important) NW only gained 34 yards in the 4th quarter(23 of which came on one drive). I'd say improvement is there, it's consistency that is key. So, can our defense be more consistent? Edit- Also, 6 3-and-outs. 7 if you count the interception.

Justice Hayes Light bulb Edit- For some reason i couldn't get a picture of a light bulb to stay when I posted and it won't save when I try to edit. Help? Never mind got it. Wow am I dumb.

Westy and Moore will both be good, but where's Taariq Allen? Still injured? IIRC this question came up a while ago and somebody said his injury was nearly career ending.

I'd like to throw in the 12 STRAIGHT stops on 3rd down from the D. You don't win many ball games going 2-14 on 3rd down.

1. TA is the future. 2. TA starts off really hot but for some reason falls flat as the game goes on. Kinda weird. He'll have to work on that. 3. The D isn't dead, and we can make some plays. The only question is will this continue or will there be another let down. 4. If we can't get anything going on O we can lean on AA. 5. Not sure on this...but maybe some leaders and play makers(besides SJB) come out this week after some solid all around individual performances on D.

Haha true. Probably a little too quick to it. After replaying it over and over I learned the play was under review. Didn't even hear the ref say it was under review.

I don't personally understand all the hate on the coaches. Yes first half you can blame them, but second half we made a lot of improvement. The only thing I didn't understand was us ditching the option. We overcame 4 turnovers and 4 costly penalties on drives that seemed like we were going to score on. I AM NOT defending any coaches, but it is obvious this team didn't roll over and die. We made plays on D when we had to. The D carried us in the 2nd half.

I wasn't personally there. Just wondering to the people who attended and stayed till the end, how loud was it and how does it compare to other moments in Memorial Stadium?

My bowels have released.

That's improper tackling. His head is on the wrong side and his butt isn't underneath him.

A leader is someone who leads his team to victory. No matter the obstacles when the game is on the line he can win the game. Going on what Po said, wouldn't those comeback wins define him as a leader? Four last year not to mention the biggest one in school history against OSU. The kid hasn't been healthy since he was a freshman. He played on broken toes last week. That sounds like a leader to me.

I like some of your points, but with all due respect I disagree with some of them. Kenny Bell and a lot of other kids don't see Nebraska the way we see it. They're not hardcore fans from birth like us, they're recruited. Their best memories of Nebraska won't be of the fans; it will be of time spent with other players and coaches, their best friends and mentors on and off the field. I don't have a problem if you don't a player or think he shouldn't play, but I have a problem when they are attacked on social networks for their performance. They put all the time and the effort into these games. They are the ones running wind sprints in November while we're sitting inside chatting on HB. They have a lot more at stake in these games than any of us, so I'd say it's fair to say that they take a loss harder than us. A loss for us is the reflection of something we associate ourselves with while a loss for them is a direct reflection upon themselves. I'm sure they after a loss the last thing they want is to go on the internet and be blasted by 'fans' with their opinions. The first couple times I'm sure they don't really care, but after a while I'd bet it wears down on them. I'd also like to point out the fact that it's not just the hatred towards him, but to others he associates with. If some stranger calls your girlfriend something mean, it angers you. I'd say the same thing applies to his teammates and coaches. It's no secret the amount of hatred T-Mart has gotten over the years. These guys want to look out for their own. It's more than a game to them. Does anybody remember T.O. crying and saying 'That's my quarterback.' when Romo(I don't have the best memory of who/what happened) was going under fire of if he was good enough. Any attack on other players or coaches feels like an attack on them. My last point is that for some of them this is not the big stage. For players that always had dreams of one day being Huskers or players who will play their last seconds of football in scarlet and cream, maybe so, but not all of them. For some of them this is an opportunity. An opportunity to try and show off their skills before the NFL comes calling. Like it or not it's the truth. They have their whole lives ahead of them and I don't want their memory of some bad fans to ruin the greater sum that was their experience at Nebraska. I don't want this to continue or taint the image that is Nebraska. I would like to say this was not a rant. I was not responding to anything that angered me and am simply stating my own opinions on the matter.

Lost again. 2-6. Can't seem to find any consistency. Either the WRs or RBs as a group do crappy. I'm looking for a WR from the waivers this week. Who do you think is a better and will score more consistent points? Marvin Jones- Cincinnati- He's their 3rd option at WR so he doesn't see the field every play but has scored 3 straight TDs in games. Also seems to have some better chemistry with Dalton than Sanu and Green does pull away the better corners. Kenny Stills- New Orleans- Big play rookie. NO's 2nd option. Only problem with him is Brees likes to spread the ball out. I'm in a PPR league. Right now Randall Cobb has the most points out of all my WRs....ugh. Last question. What are the chances of Roddy White or Arian Foster starting? Need both of them really. If Roddy cannot play one of these WRs listed above will be starting for me,

Ran out of +1s...

I personally wouldn't mind him if: 1- He didn't jaw off to every defender after he scores a touchdown. 2- He didn't get all the credit for everything he does. Seriously, he has one of the best WRs in college football in Evans but yet when he throws for 400 yards against a team with Evans having almost 300 of those. He makes a tackler miss then throws up a jump ball to a guy in triple coverage who muscles his way to a catch and ESPN paints him as a god. Obviously, #2 is not his fault. Just something I wanted to get off my chest. I did root for the guy last year, although I didn't want him to win the Heisman. I think all the talk about him is getting to his head. His ego is starting to catch up with his football skills.

This. Plus with Cobb out and Jones possibly out you get Joe Haden on Nelson. I agree and say go with Luck.
