how long are we going to blame uninspired play on Bo pelini? i vote at least 10 more blow outs
there is an element of cause and effect. Hard to deny it. Riley should get four years to get his guys and system in. Then hatchet him if he cannot get the job done.
2 years later it's a BS excuse.

319 yards given up....
You're sh!tting me. In this half?
If the TD is called back it's at 302

This isn't a talent issue, we're getting out-coached. This is starting to feel a lot like the Iowa game.
You think the guys we are strolling out there are on par with TN?!?
Were Vandy and South Carolina?
(hint, no)
Good coaching and scheming can make up for talent. Running the same poor play up the gut every time is neither.

There's that inside zone identity going strong...

I don't think Bo should have been kept, but I am happy that YSU has done so well this year. They have had an amazing run in the playoffs.
That's how I feel. He wasn't the guy for Nebraska, but I'm still glad he's found success.

saban wins titles.
So if YSU wins in three weeks what's your new narrative going to be? It doesn't count because it's FCS?

I agree with the OP. I would also like to see us get back to controlling the LOS and having a power run game and speedy nasty D. There hasn't been a time ever that I didn't want that. Unfortunately, Pederson, Osborne, Eichorst, Callahan, Pelini and Riley haven't had the same desires. I haven't much enjoyed Nebraska football for quite awhile because of the alternate bs they've tried to go with instead. It is what it is at this point. When they make the next coaching change, maybe we'll get what we want. These should be the criteria for any coach that is selected. I could care less about getting the next "hot" coach if those aren't his priorities. Tired of getting prison raped in the trenches and not knowing how to get a first down when it's 3rd and 2 or 3 or 4. The pink lockerroom Iowa has for visiting teams has been way too fitting for us.
This is all reason why Dave Rimmington or whoever "insert NU dominant player with admin exp here" that should be the AD. Now that Pearlman is gone, when Eichorst leaves, NU can get back to that. Question is, who is THAT guy as a coach who takes NU back to that style of offense?
I think that answer is Troy Calhoun.
I would love to see that. I remember watching one of their games last year where the defense was keying on the FB dive, so in the second half they ran all the dive/options plays between guard and tackle instead of right up the middle and the defense had no answer. Gotta love a coach that can and will adjust the entire base of on offense to get the upper hand.

Can't say that I've given up, but last night was VERY discouraging. A 62-3 beat down isn't just a fluke and doesn't just happen out of nowhere.
It isn't just the talent gap that allowed the Buckeyes to dominate last night. Urban Meyer and other successful coaches' teams capitalize when handed a gift. When they get a turnover they're ready to score and a field goal is an after thought. On the other hand when OSU muffed a punt and we got the ball deep in their territory we didn't capitalize and make them pay. I don't know if he coaches those types of killer instincts, looks for that in recruits, or a mixture of the two, but the Huskers have lacked it for quite a while.- 1

Thanks for sharing! I usually just add in beef broth and seasoning, but I bet the garlic and French onion soup adds some good flavor.

I would love to see one (or all) of the future game with OU to be played in Arrowhead.
Honestly I think both Memorial Stadiums are much better than Arrowhead, especially from a historical importance factor.
That is very true. For whatever reason I just like the idea of a neutral site game in a pro stadium.

I don't think Michigan states system is one to emulate if NU wants to win championships.
Also, at HC, Michigan state has one of the best defensive minds and overall HC ability in the country. NU can't claim the same.
Anyway, I love the triple option as a significant component of an offense, especially an "under talented" offense. I know a lot of the young (28 or younger) have no love for it. That's fine.
How can anyone have love for it? Sure it worked great back in the 90s. How has it worked out for GA tech
Nebraska and Dr. Tom didn't run a triple option offense if that's what you're referencing. You do bring up a good point about Georgia Tech though. They have had some success like going 11-3 and winning the Orange Bowl in 2014, but this year they went 3-9. I'm surprised that Paul Johnson hasn't tried to tweak his offense a little more since he's no longer at a service academy. I guess it's what he knows and he's going to stick with it.

Special teams won this game for Bama. Call it luck, but the onside kick and TD kick return is the difference on a night when I think they were outplayed.
Big plays in general. TDs of 50, 53, 51 and 95 yards plus another 63 yard play to set up first and goal and lead to a TD.
For sure, Howard had five catches for 208 yards. Not a bad day at the office for a TE.

Feeling a lot less impressed with our win over Sparty at the moment...
You really thought that MSU was that good? They are good, but they aren't a dominant team. That's actually is WHY we beat them.
I didn't think they were elite, but I did think they were good enough to at least put up a fight last night.

He was hobbling a little after a run.. I think it was the 3rd quarter, but I'm not sure. Didn't look like anything major, but they were probably comfortable just riding Ozigbo at that point.

Well Langsdorf went back to the old tendencies. Let's hope that's the last time tonight.
