  1. Frost and this team delegitimized the close MSU and UM games by blowing Minny and Purdue. We believed we were turning a corner, blew out Northwestern and should've beaten two upper tier B1G teams. The program is a farce under Frost. I hate writing it but it is true. We HAD to win those two games to salvage the season, recruits, and hope. Frost and his staff blew it.
  2. We needed to beat Minnesota and Purdue to substantiate the close Michigan teams losses. We blew them. Only a win against OSU has any credence now. Close losses won't save anyone now. If we win Minny and Purdue, lose a close one to OSU, and split Wisky Iowa...that would be okay. We didn't and it isn't.
  3. This insight needed its own thread? Can you start a new one about Adrian's poor game?
  4. Scott needs to look again at whom he gave "'til death do us part." vows to
  5. I learned Northwestern should be investigated for their role in the Nebraska loss a few weeks ago.
  6. Scott hitched his career to a QB that cannot get it done. We cannot continue to rely on an improved defense to shut teams down for the 43 minutes their O is on the field. We do not have an elite pass rusher. And we lose our better ones for next year. It's just pathetically sad. If Scott could've succeeded we'd have had him for a long time. His loyalty and pride to poor coaches and players was worth more to him than results. Verdu, Coach Austin, 2AM...all needed ousted. Bad bad bad. Frost's lack of attention to details, lack of ST focus, inability to make the right calls at key moments...it's just a gumbo of failure. Just sad.
  7. Benhart is absolutely atrocious. Bet his dad thinks it's someone else's fault.
  8. We have time to make it a one score game. And still lose.
  9. Scott put his job, and mid term career, in Adrian Martinez's hands. It will cost him his job. Add to the fact he's not a detail-oriented, sound coach - it's simply too much for him. Bye Scott.
  10. Can we see more Yant please? Or did he get benched for going the wrong way once? Maybe we should let him throw it, get picked, and play more...
  11. Punt return yards? We're on a different planet. Holding call goes NU's way? We're in an alternate reality. Martinez TO. Aaand, we're back..
  12. Martinez does it in practice and must have success doing it. It's why it translates to games. And it's awful
  13. Was that a punt return I saw? Forgot what those looked like.
  14. It is bad Martinez today so far. The D is also way too leaky
  15. I'm just happy people are using loose and lose correctly. A whining combo!
  16. September 25th prophet checking in. Life has me watching taped games these days. NW was such a pleasant surprise. I sped through commercials and enjoyed the blowout. Today? 3 and out on O had me hoping that drive was anomalous. The next Minny drive told the tale. Not only was it not like the NW game, it was the too familiar “damn, we’re not ready.” After 14-3 I checked the score on ESPN and saw 16-21 them, our ball. We flubbed the game from there as I watched live losing so much hope from the close losses of weeks past. Deflating. The game looked too familiar of four years of underperforming. We needed that one. Instead we decided to plug the holes of the Fleck kayak and give it new life.
  17. Frost has had the worst results. He is not our worst coach.
  18. This was the gut punch. Not a gut punch. The. A win here validated the close losses. It validated a turn-of-the-corner. A chance to deeply hope for the future of this team. We fell short. The O-Line, 2AM, ST, and even the D at too many times. This loss likely sealed Frost's fate. We needed to win. It will show as another one possession loss, but this was a lot worse. The story of this regime. We fell short. ETA: Not saying Frost doesn't get another year, but I do think the fate is sealed. It's going to be very tough to continue to lose games we shouldn't and him keep his job...especially how we lose.
  19. Play Nebraska when your boat is struggling. We'll hand you an oar, motor, gasoline, and a shipmate.
  20. The problem with this one is when the Wolverines showed up qt the end. Fresh, determined to kill clock. Smacking Gophers all day is one thing, personnel changes would kill anyone... ... Good recaps overall.
  21. After Michigan the narrative from objective analysts will continue to be “Nebraska is dangerous.” Two years ago it was just embarrassing. We are definitely turning a corner. Last night was tough. Very very tough. But I was in it, rooting for these kids and coach and not flipped to another game by mid 2nd quarter like other years. Frost’s team is miles ahead of anything Riley had. I don’t care about record for Riley vs Scott. The former’s teams were as soft as the ice cream they ate after a blowout loss. We’ve been competitive in every game. I believe we will start winning these games soon. Let’s take care of Minny. We’re not sneaking up on anyone now. We are a legitimate threat. We all want that legitimacy to turn to more wins. I believe it will.
