Husker_fan_in_KC

The only real problem I have with Gill is that I fear if he does not work out that people will remember him as the coach that failed instead of the Husker QB. Mind you I am fine with whatever comes down the pipe, if it is Gill I hope they pull in a DC that will make a group of attack dogs.

This (and other videos) bring 2 things to mind.

1. Arm tackling can work if there is a monster at the other end of them arms.

2. The team needs to watch this kinda stuff before they take the field. If those hits don't fire you up then nothing can.

I think anything other then keeping Cally will make most of us happy. I will root on which ever coach TO decides on but I think everyone sees a change is needed.

Another point is that I wonder how many coaches opinions may have changed after the way the "fans" have reacted to Cally and Coz this year (I mean the nasty stuff). I am hoping that the behavior wouldn't scare away possible candidates.

I have been seeing this all year on the D and want to see if I am just imagining it. A D player is in position to tackle and stops or pauses before trying to make the tackle, not sure if hes waiting for other players or worried about the RB cut but just tired of seeing the D players standing still while the runner goes past

I keep reading people say that the offense is fine, but really?? If I remember beyond the last game then I don't know how well that holds true, there have been sparks but absolutely no consistency. The fact that when we go down by 2 TDs in the first half it seems like Callahan forgets we have a ground game. So we go 3 thru the air and out and then get scored on again. If your defense is having issues you do everything you can to keep your offense on the field and slowly drive the field, don't you?? Also beyond that if BC was the OC I would agree but HC means your responsible for the whole game, not just what side your "known" for.

After what the team, coaches and players had gone thru with some of the "fans" I don't think Cally is likely to give it his all next year. The honeymoon is over and both sides realize they married the wrong person, I just think its gone too far to fix.

I don't see Cally agreeing to conditions to remain and I don't think he would be effective if they were forced on him. Also I think you hire a coach to coach, if you tell him how to do it then he serves no function. I have no idea what is going to happen after Colorado but I am just hoping it works out for the players more then anyone else.

Who was that Polk kid who played linebacker in 2000? He was pretty fun to watch. Remember the game he intecepted a pass and ran it back for a TD, got flagged for spiking the ball while Frank was laughing his head off on the sideline? While not my favorite play of all time it is close. Everyone in the stadium was going nuts. I wonder what happened to him.

I think you mean Carlos Polk, I saw him earlier this year playing for the Chargers as a backup to Merriman.

As a cynic, I would say its so they can make Michigan look better after the Alamo bowl loss. "Well ya they lost but it was to a top 10 team"

Anyone else notice Lienarts comment after the game about USC being the better team on the field that night or something to that effect. My jaw dropped when I heard him say that.

I am always interested in the way people say things and the language they use , this article is about as close as the writer can get to giving Michigan a big hug while talking about thier loss.

He titles it "Even the biggest critics have to give Nebraska credit" but fails miserably to do so. If it wasn't for the fact that he actually mentions NU's win I wouldn't know they did from this article.

We were so good for so long. Unfortunately it has made us the press favorite target.

I don't really buy this because of the apparent love of OSU, MU and ND that prevades the press. They have all been consistently good for years but they don't have the target that NU seems to have in the media. Nebraska could be USC and Texas next year and the media would focus on how they lost the game instead of NU winning it. I found a long time ago to just totally ignore the sports media as a whole for NU (really big 12 overall) coverage.

Only caught the tail end of the game but from what I saw I would say big time over rated.

Hopefully we can meet again in the next couple years for a NC After seeing this game I would love to see a NU/MU game every year, one of the best I have seen (officiating aside). Strong defenses on both sides and sporadic offenses but it all made for a hell of a game.

Looks like the Blackshirts are back

If Nebraska keeps playing like they are, even if they lose, they got nothing to be ashamed of. Just wish the D woulda picked at least 1 of them 3+ near ints, but they are doing great even without that

If they come out and start next season like this we got the North easy. I am totally impressed with thier play so far.

Woot

Now don't blow the kick return

That is what we needed, Michigan came crashing into the middle and Ross burned em

Need to start running the ball, even if its just getting a couple yards a rush, ya gotta keep the defense honest. Plus I think if Ross can get into the backfield he will gain some major yardage. Heck if nothing else at least give the D a chance to rest

Not 1 fricking run, wtf is going on

If the defense can't get off the field we are hosed. No idea why they aren't trying to establish the run. We are making ourselves 1 demensional

From the looks so far we can drive on them and our defense seems to be doing the job. I don't think they could have driven that down if they didn't have the short field to start, but we will see

That was a wonderous toss by Taylor while he was getting hit, I figured he was gonna get sacked

Plus we have to keep in mind that Vince Young was in the running for the Heisman. Can't pull him out too soon.

When a team gets stomped the blame lies with the team, we were not blaming Tech last year because we realize that it was OUR fault they scored 70, not thiers.

its almost to a point where i want usc to win so the huskers can go in there next year and pull the huge upset...

I believe we play Texas and USC both next year so we will play whoever is the NC, if things go right maybe we can stomp them both.

Is it just me or are the UCLA linebackers lining up way too deep? They are letting Bush get thru the line and then trying to handle him in the open field. Maybe all linebackers line up that far back and I am missing it. Just seems like they aren't plugging holes quick enough.

If the starters would have played the whle 3rd QT out, or even just one of the top RBs this game could have broke 100

Think it has more to do with the play calling, think Texas 2nd string could pry take them over 100 if Texas was trying to score still.
