I would love a last second field goal win. Then our kicker gets his mojo back for the season.

I said MSU by 8-14. I think this would be a huge win for Frost if he can pull it off, but I have seen 1 step forward two steps back from NU football for far too long. I have this feeling in my stomach that we have been feeling ourselves a little too much after playing well Saturday.  If we win I think a lot of weight will be off everyones shoulders....Scott, Trev, the Team, the Fans - it would be such a good thing for this program, but like I said, I need to see it first. 

This right here is why I think it would be a signature win. Not because it's a ranked team but because it would be a sign that the team is learning how to win games by going from a a good showing against ou to winning on the road at night the week after a tough loss.

I'm looking for mental improvement from the offense. Let's come out on the opening drive and have no penalties. For once let's see them show the moment isn't too big for them. 

This thread is quickly devolving towards being my little pony bombed.

Yes, Toure should be back there. In regards to kick returns. Any time we do it, it's because we want to make a big play. But each time it's backfired so just take it at the 25.

I have to think that we must be looking great in practice. Why else would we ask the returner to make a play when he's never actually had a big return in a game before? (Or did i miss one)

Pregame: “we’re going to get smoked by 50” 

 

Postgame: “we lost by 7.. we suck” 

 

I know we have some serious O line and special teams issues but if that game doesn’t give you a bit of pride and hope then you’re tainted. 

It does give us hope. I still feel like this is year 3 for frost. He has a long way to go though. He needs a dedicated oc and st coach.

What kills me is how our coach can be so bad at understanding situations. Down 7 with a minute and the ball...ou is going to either come at you or drop and hope the clock burns out. At this point, you have to know what your team's strengths and weaknesses are and how the rest of the game has gone. The oline is just a mess. Roll out the qb. This helps against an all out blitz and gives him the option to scramble for 10 or 15 and get out of bounds if they play prevent. Either way ot ensures you don't take a sack in bounds and ruin the whole thing right away. Sigh...

You're takes are bad and you should feel bad.

 

We hung with the #3 team all game. We don't suck. Just discipline and special teams that hurt us (yet again). mentally weak is laughable this team Brant it the whole game and kept popping back at a superior team.

I see what you're saying but the oline continuing to false start especially at the beginning of a big game is mentally weak. This defense is stout and mentally tough though.

After seeing how much people were on here sucking Minnesota and Tanner Morgan's d!(k during that OSU game I'm expecting to come in here and only see positivity. 

There has been a ton of positivity in this thread. But when your special teams implodes yet again, it gets really frustrating and ruins a lot of good will really quick. This team played well enough to win this game but we beat ourselves again. It just feels like there is no end in sight to all this sloppy play. 

Kinda what we should have expected. This team doesn't know how to seize victory. They may learn but they have to cut down on stupid mistakes. 

Okay well that series went as bad as it could go

You can't ask for much more than a chance to tie the game at the end here...although I go for two if I score.

Run blitz?

No question. Best game of his career.

Even his interception worked out well for us.

Great throw and catch!!!!

For everyone complaining about our OL coach and the special teams coach, please remember who it was that hired them and the rest of this staff.  For better or worse, after 4 years in charge, this is the staff we have under Frost.

I agree. I still want a coach ejected now though. Lol

Come on defense get off the field.

Can we fire somebody. I don't care who. Just somebody. The ball boy. Anyone associated with special teams or the oline. Can we at least eject a coach from the game? I'll feel better. Please.

I guess it's time to start going for 2 just to stop that from happening.

Unbelievable....we can't get a break. Even when good things happen we f it up

Yipee!

Great catch!

I just can't. This line is so hard to watch. I can handle not being very good but these mistakes just can't happen.

Why slide done.....Get the 1st

Exactly. Get the first Adrian. 

I guess the personal fouls are why they are calling us dirty
