Sadly this is true.

We've only played two games so it's maybe not fair to judge Thompson's long ball ability just yet. But for a QB, Adrian is a really strong guy. The stronger your arm is, the less you're struggling when launching a long ball and that tends to (but not always) help your long ball accuracy.

 

Thompson isn't nearly as big & strong as Adrian. This is pretty much just message board fodder stuff though for the most part.

 

But, Thompson has either overthrown or underthrown some passes on deep routes where his guy could have made a good play on the ball if it had been more accurate so far. And I don't think that's an unfair assessment, that's just looking at the footage.

Yeah, We never saw Adrian the turnover machine over\under throw anyone...right ?

North Dakota has darn good fb coach and scrappy team.  Probably fun team to watch.  
i think we could have chance in the MO Valley league to compete but we could not run the table.  Ugh.  
 

This team won today.  But ND fans I bet had a whole lotta fun.  Probably their disappointed because woulda, coulda, shoulda.  This was like a heavy weight fight (without any contenders) that ended with both guys beaten and bloodied, and by a unanimous decision, the favorite got the decision.  Took 15 rounds. Both fighters got multiple knock downs.  It was unorthodox.  Neb had some flurries that scored but got stuck on the ropes while ND did bag work on us.  Kind of interesting fight.  Glad we got ducuib

Excellent take on the game

Might be time to end the CT experiment.

Whale, take your medication...please take your medication.

The dude is a stud.

Should have come back for another year and taken the NIL money.  Not sure who was advising guys like Allen and Daniels but it should be a warning that the NFL is where the big boys play.

Hire the volleyball coach..he was a favorite of Eichorst.

Stupid call, bad defense, no offensive push, sketchy quarterback play and 3 turnovers will get you beat.

We win, Scott gets a huge contract extension, Whipple voted assistant of the year, Mickey starts pulling in 5 stars everyone is husker land is happy.

Not surprised Thompson wasn’t named a captain. He’s been with the team for 7-8 months. While I am sure Casey will be a leader, most of the other guys have been thru years together.  After all, the best QB in NU history was never a captain. 

Not true, Adrian was a captain 

Not a total hatchet job LP and Mo were idiots that could play ball.

I was feeling good until I read your post...you must be a real treat at parties.

I'm happy for the guy and wish him well.

A lame a$$ AD and leaked audio got the ball rolling.

 

Imagine if you could hear what Frost says about us.  Good lord, he had to walk on the field holding the hand of his wife and kid because us morons were "reporting" that he was banging coeds in some secret room at Gate 25 and then the radio guys even ran with it a bit...don't forget that Moos was drunk every night at the bars, hitting on and groping women.  Of course, none of that was caught on video either.

 

Oh and Bo started a fight in the basement of a hotel on game day.  And no one saw.

 

 

Don't forget Carl banging the booster wives and blowing snow...oh wait that really happened.

Let's wait until the season plays out before we crown Mr. Whipple King.

Watch how much better, and more frequent, plays behind the LOS and 5-yards down field will be called as compared to previous years. The offense Frost runs is supposed to be quick attacking, but when a QB holds on too long or throws behind the target then the WR/RB has little to no shot. Thompson is money with those touch passes and it will be a huge difference. What’s also interesting is how Thompson had less time in the pocket to pass compared to AM. 

Hope you're right on Thompson

I think he's talking about reuniting with a more "seasoned" Kade Warner.  Nice kid, good athlete, marginal quarterback.

No way he jumps ahead of WYATT LIEWER on the depth chart

Media downsizing is a sign of the times.

Yeah but man, it hurts to thin about what could have been with Wandale, Toure, Manning, and Allen on the field at the same time. 

We just needed a quarterback that could get them the ball.

Didn’t he have the chance of coming back for another year?

Yes..someone gave him bad advice.  Could have made more from NIL than he makes next year if he makes the team.
