  1. Props to McKenzie for even wanting to play. Getting to even 90% is one thing. Mentally getting past that subconscious fear or hesitancy at game speed is another. That was a horrific injury. If that's behind him then Frost really doesn't have a choice but to offer. If he doesn't and next year goes south he may not survive to coach in 2022.
  2. Ok the gig is up. This is the bombshell we've all been waiting for..lol
  3. Bowling is essential and with an intense cardio demand. Someone will suffocate.
  4. He lies so much and so consistently it's actually easy to get to the truth. Just deduce the opposite of what he says or tweets. So, yes, this has legs and he's involved...lol
  5. Some of these non-calls/calls could literally be the difference between a win and a loss. If the long run by Martinez last week in the fourth doesn't get called, which wasn't any worse than the photos shown above, do we wind up scoring on that drive? Or one Iowa drive is killed because a legit hold is called does the outcome change? I hate ever being the guy that blames the refs but this is insane. As we've had a couple of close games which could have gone our way, and now a portion of the fan base is turning up the heat on Frost, do we need to slow our roll on that rhetoric? Especially knowing he's not only having to rebuild a burnt-down-to-the-ground program but also overcome this crap?
  6. Banker? You mean the Mark Banker who said Iowa's practices must be a bloodbath after the curb stomping their lines gave us in 2016? Whose defense gave up 264 yards rushing to Iowa while our offense rushed for 90 that year? That Mark Banker? In 2017 we gave up 313 yds on the ground to Iowa and we rushed for 67. This year we held Iowa to 129 yds on the ground and rushed for 143. Beyond the stats go back and watch the games. Iowa is basically the same scheme and culture, a physical run the ball downhill team, so they're a good for comparison year to year. If you can't see that the physicality disparity has closed then I don't know what to tell you. You can't look at overall stats from years where we played non power 5 schools to this year. That's silly. Watch the film of the past games especially against a hard-nosed team like Iowa. I'll give you, Illinois this year was a turd,.if that winds up being the norm then, yeah, we suck. Now as far as execution goes.... that's another argument.
  7. Wait... did you put Trump and smart in the same sentence? Tweet storm incoming soon I'm sure.
  8. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-02973-3 Interesting article on some theories of why the data is showing spread is lower in children especially pre-teen. This isn't the flu so it's not surprising it may not spread in the same way.
  9. I agree. I watched the Iowa game again and we're not getting beat physically at the line like we were in the Riley days or Frost's first year.. That's the first step to improvement. Clean up the mental errors in both the Iowa and NW games and nobody here is calling for Frost's head. This game is such a fine line. Now that the physical disparities have been addressed I'm hopeful we're getting closer to the next step.
  10. Hmmm...new account "biggiecheese" proceeds to throw dirt on the program and then sing the praises of wait for it.... Wisconsin
  11. More murder talk...of people simply doing the job they signed on for, reporting the facts, and defending democracy.
  12. Ugh, Jurgens has everything you want in a center, except he can't shotgun snap. Either you move him or you adapt the offense and move under center. He's never going to get away from the yips. I mean if he was off a foot or two maybe, but some of those snaps are akin to a cold shank in golf. And once that's in your head, or that of the QB, you're done.
  13. You extend every coach unless you know you're firing him otherwise you kill recruiting. Then if it comes to it you eat the extension. It's just how the business goes.
  14. Maybe he can shotgun snap??
  15. So you're saying you didn't watch the game. As far as what my ego has to do with your constant hissy fits
  16. Did you not watch the game yesterday? I know you did because you were in full meltdown in the game thread from start to finish. We were competitive. We had the ball at the end to win the game. Had it not been for the muffed punt by CTB we may have won. We're not where we want to be but we're also not where we were during the last stages of the Riley years when we were getting absolutely dominated. I know nobody wants to hear that because then their crying is all for not.
  17. Such bad time management they left time on the clock...lol
  18. Good day for Husker Nation. We got this. Martinez starts and gets a new lease on his career.
  19. Thanks @Toe I think I got it. I was trying to use the "other media" tab then "insert image from url" but it would freeze up in pink like another poster said. So the last gif I just downloaded and saved to my images then posted as a file. It seems to work.
  20. The human animal can't handle boredom. It's probably the most destructive mindset we face because it leads to a whole host of bad choices. It's why people dwaddle around on Facebook, Twitter, here, etc. It's why people get pulled into the Qanon nonsense. Drama is at least a stimulation. People would rather be there than bored. So, the next four years will be anything but boring. The drama queens will make sure of that.
  21. Hey remember that holding call back in the Ohio State game??
