Exactly

Meh, agree to disagree. We have now resorted to hoping to flip a 3 star from boise state or some such place because their coach got fired. Don’t know maybe he will be great but hearing that doesn’t scream we are killing it on the recruiting trail for that position

This is actually one of the ones we HAD to get and keep. What happens if EJ gets hurt? Ervin staying healthy is unlikely. And with the QB situation we will lean more on the run than ever next year. He is going to be a star wherever he goes, sucks big time it won’t be here.

I don’t disagree at all, and how sad is it we will prob lose

I see where you are coming from but I will counter with; EJ came in and hit the ground running, Purdy hit the ground running except for one bad decision in the Maryland game. The left side of the line has become markedly more serviceable since Corcoran and Piper went down. My point is the replacements haven’t needed time to get better than who they were replacing and no amount of time was going to make that left side of the line better.

I agree it would be a whole new world if we went 6-6. That means they overcame some adversity, I don’t really know if our starters being healthy changes that. Washington maybe our one loss that really hurt this team. Everyone else, their replacements have done just fine or better than they were Edit: you are probably right if the guys starting now had more reps in camp it may be a completely better team, which begs the question what were the coaches looking at that made these guys so low in the depth chart?

Sure we are “ahead of schedule” but it still feels like business as usual when it comes to HOW we are losing these games. Too much to rehash in one post but we are still masters at shooting ourselves in the foot and that does not bode well.

I will be honest. I would be eh ok with 6-6 and a bowl. That’s measurable progress… I’ll explain… that means we beat a 9-2 Iowa. That means they are able to pull themselves up from a 3 game skid and beat a team with a winning record. That means we have don’t have a losing record for the first time since Riley. Thats just off the top of my head without looking up all of the mind numbing stats from the last decade or so that make a 6-6 record feel like going to the B1G championship.

Agreed, we have taken steps back in every facet except defense. We finish 5-7 and this program is in no better condition than what frost left it. I would say worse as the offense is not only boring and anemic, it’s gut wrenchingly cringe.

I mean Matt Canada needs a job

I don’t disagree, but he should This program has become Billy bob thortons character from tombstone. Somebody needs to come in and Wyatt Earp the s#!t out of it. Looks like Rhules nepotism is keeping him from doing his job. Satterfield had ALL off season and this season to do something with the qb room. He’s hot garbage

That is a really good list dude. I would add, Rhule having a sit down with Satt and saying you have the Iowa game to show me something different with HOW you call plays in certain SITUATIONS or you’re gone.

Sure qb play has been out front. It’s tough to ignore how bad they’ve been. I just found it interesting with GOOD not just ok qb play we are systematically broken as a program…still. Finding a qb in the portal won’t right this ship as people have been saying. That is all.

I hope I’m wrong. I really do. I’ve been watching this team for a long time. And it isn’t a stretch to say this program hasn’t been given a chance by the people running the show. Rhule has made some critical errors and they all seem to center around Satterfield, his buddy. Who else did this? nepotism and fans buying the hype hook line and sinker every regime change will be the death of this program if it’s not already dead.

Yes I used some inflammatory language, but I stand by it. This team may be showing improvement in some aspects but have taken giant leaps back in others. we will more than likely, barring a miracle, end up 5-7. We are not as embarrassing as Frosts team but we just found other ways to lose close games. on a losing streak? play the Huskers. Want to put up madden like numbers and break some record? play the Huskers. Hell Allen didn’t even know if he was going to stick with football then decided after he ran all over us a couple years back that this football thing is kinda neat. We suck!! And it prob won’t change in our lifetime.

This game showed me that in the end it isn’t qb play that has been hampering us. Obviously Sims and HH have not helped the situation but Purdy played a clean game with really pretty good stats and we still lost, like terribly. Go up 14 then lay an egg the rest of the game?? Like come on man! 100 percent in play calling, clock management, special teams (anyone else blocks that punt and our guy totally holds up and bails??) and of course crappy Oline play. unfortunately a portal qb is not going to save this abortion of a program

Fair, I guess at this point the qbs have been so bad I’d rather take the devil we don’t know then the devil we do. when it comes to Purdy he had a really good drive. “Right up to the point he left his wingman” by trying to play hero. I’d be ok with either him or a complete unknown at this point and hope and pray the defense can bail them out yet again

I don’t care if Sims is Lamar Jackson reincarnated, if he can’t protect the ball he should never sniff the offensive side of the ball. The fact that the only thing consistent about him is that he WILL fumble or throw ints and they STILL insist on playing him makes them clinically insane (doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results) or culpable and intentionally throwing games. that said I agree if they want to show some semblance of trying to win they may need to turn to Longval sooner than later

I will personally pay for Woches plane ticket if it means the 3 we’ve seen don’t stsrt also if Sims gets the start it confirms Sat and Rhule are clinically insane

Agreed. Maybe Lacy knows something we don’t about a coaching change with the offense. Ha, kidding

Didn’t Malachi Coleman decommit after the Mickey Joseph mess

Any other power five team is 8-2 or better with this defense. Keeping opponents under 20 points is winning football

HH nothing doing. Sims has a couple scoring drives then the turnover bug bit him…again. Purdy has a really solid drive and Coleman gives up on the route and turnover… Purdy should get the start but I would be interested to see what Woche can do at this point. Can’t get any worse… Fidone should do nothing but work on blocking this week in practice and McGuire needs to get in Coleman’s ear and teach him how to toughen up when he gets jammed.

Satt calls plays like he is playing Madden with the All Madden team. I’ve given him the benefit of the doubt but Rhule needs to make a change otherwise he is culpable as well.

Lol this is manic
