I’m thinking the only fault in the Sims thing is the lack of a QB specific coach. Easily the most important skill specific position. But yet we have a TE coach. I feel for Sims to come in to a highly scrutinized position at a high profile school without a Shepard to guide him. So I guess that’s Rhule fault. But that’s ok-just a misstep in a rebuild season.  

Loving this Chaos. If an SEC team gets in, I’m uninterested in anything CFP 2003. 
 

Also loving the FSU defense. They easily handled the Heismen winner. 

This year was more boring than last year- so that’s good. 
 

discipline and team resiliency appeared markedly improved.  
 

Still can’t win in the final two minutes, but I think that gets fixed next year when the team gets more confident with much improved QB play.  
 

I think us fans got a little ahead of ourselves when we went on our little win streak- like a recovered addict getting heroin we just kinda binged on the good feelings.

I learned that it's hard to rank the most soul crushing Nebraska losses in the last 10 years, but Friday is definitely in the Top 20. 

I get you, but for me it was not. It was more like” ok, that’s where it goes off track this time” There is a certain expectation of doom.

 However, the last second meltdowns are starting to affect my fandom. I’m still traveling to games and still watching them when I’m not there, but the gusto is gone.

A bowl is a bowl is a bowl.  One more game, extra practices and a chance for one more win.  I'll take it.  Even if we didn't "earn" it.

He also be wrong as he refused to source it. He quits talking with extra questions.

I'm liking that.  So #3 in line for 5 possible bowls?

That’s what he said. Saw it somewhere on Twitter, so I’m sure it’s true. lol 

edit- realize it might be how I said it. 3rd in line of the five win teams to get a bowl.  Of course that might change of Florida or others win. 

My teenager says we’re 3rd in line for a bowl for 5 winners. 

I learned that there is a need for Sidetrack’s like band to go a parody of “50 ways to leave your lover”.

I think it’s getting far easier to ignore/compartmentalization of these losses. If anything to me it’s been a blessing so I can focus on what really matters but still have some sense of fandom. 

No one at the game seemed surprised or upset.  A self fulling prophecy. 

Has Satterfield ever developed a QB?  We have a TE and WRs coach and no QB coach with three project level QBs.

Honestly, I enjoyed the game last night. The losses this year are purely about not having overall talent needed, whereas the years past, it was a whole Lotta things missing 

 

The team that showed up last night, is a 7-4 team (minimum)

Rhule and co seem to be regressing to Frost-like clock management. Early in the  season I appreciated Rhule for being the adult in the room and making sound in-game decisions. Now he cost us at least one game, maybe two. 
 

but I enjoyed the game- I thought we played well against a  team that is our mirror twin. 

I learned that there was a football game. Most of things that went wrong were just football. The coaching at the end of both halves was abysmal. Frost-like unawareness of the situation. What happened to”if we die, we die”? This game was ours to win, and the staff safetied-up. There is a time to be aggressive, and it wasn’t it against Maryland- but going for the win on the road was. I was at the game, home field played a huge part of the win in OT 

any info on 93?  He was helped off the field after what appeared to be a concussion in the 2nd half. Looked scary to me, he was trying to walk forward but could only stagger sideways. 
 

Madison is a great CFB town. I haven’t been to many road games at BIG schools, but I imagine there are so much better than SEC towns. For football anyway. 

I dreamt Tuesday that we win an ugly game at Wisconsin. Odd score,  something like 13-5 or 11-4 or 11-5. Just posting in advance so my power can be posted in advance and then revered.

Must be watching the games with your eyes closed

Always 

Maybe Doogie Howser hasn’t taught them receivers nothin and no one is where they should be.

Sims should never be allowed on the field again. 
 

Despite the end zone int Purdy showed he can move the ball. 
 

This loss somehow hurt more than any other this season. 

Sims is the only QB that lead a scoring drive today. And he lead two.
 

I don’t know what happens to him when the turnovers start, but then they come in clusters and seem so unforced.

To my eyes it sure looked like Rhule was calling plays on that drive.

He is the coach

OL stinks

But if the receivers csnt get open, or catch, maybe we should go with the 9 OL scheme

Are we Iowa? 

I WISH

Wow. They must be stealing our plays 

Such a grind 

Maybe we’ll start Purdy and call it the battle of the lesser bros

What they need is a Quarterback.

I’ll keep the qb and take 2 new OLs 

We should have never have won this game. Just being in it for a low percentage win possibility as the clock expired is pure coaching magic.

That last call doesn't excuse the crap show the offense once again put out for all to see

 

The result would be the same if it was reviewed and corrected.

 

And again HH's wonky throwing motion bites NU in the a$$ in a new way

This offense is not going to get better this year. Period. No need to feel sad about it. No need to complain about it. It is what it is. 

Bad reffing really screws with our offensive  strategy-which  is to occasionally take advantage of what the defense gives us. We cannot overcome bad reffing, so we lost. I think it’s amazing coaching that we’re even in these games as the talent is clearly not there.  Fought to the end
