Yeah, good game SJS, if the Huskers would played the entire game like the first three quarters, and SJS's kicker would made the 7 points. I don't know what I would do with myself. BUT WE WON, it was pretty but WE WON! GO BIG RED!

NU-45 NMS-13 Passing-312 Rushing-150 GO BIG RED

That's a big NO!!! Well, we dont' know, would we? Marlon Lucky scored on a very nice 14-yard run last week. Everyone is knocking him for dancing around in the backfield. But isn't that partly what a back is supposed to do - be patient and let the holes develop? We struggle and suddenly everyone is clamoring for the entire 2nd team. Is Helu as consistent a pass blocker as Lucky? Does he have good hands, or will everyone soon realize all he does is run? Does he have the top-end speed to be a gamebreaker when he gets the chance? 1.) No, we don't know about his pass blocking 2.) Marlon isn't being used AT ALL in the passing game thus far, so this question really makes no point, if they're not using Marlon in the passing game like they did last year. 3.) Yes, Helu seems to be just as fast, probably faster in the open field than Marlon. Yeah I'm kind of disappointed right now about the passing game or lack there of, involving the I-back, especially Lucky.

Both Lucky and Helu are good backs. Yes Lucky does sometimes dance around in the backfield, but a good back must also have patience and let the O-line create holes. Helu and Lucky are good, we are lucky to have two co-1st string backs. Castille on the other hand, makes his own holes. GO BIG RED

Yeah, gonna show SJS why they should have chosen tenn. over Nebraska. GBR!! That's what I want the SJS coach to say afterwards......................"Should've went to Tennessee!" Should've, BUT DIDN'T! Prepare to be dominated!

Welcome to the board. Good luck this season. Sorry about week three, I'm sure you'll recover after. GO BIG RED!

"great things come to people who wait," -- Heinz ketchup, sometime in the late 1900's. Nice.

This pisses me the f*** off. Time to show how we do things in Lincoln, we'll show you crazy! I look for Nebraska to put this away early. GO BIG RED!!!!!!

I agree, we have the talent to play well in the secondary, they just need to learn the system well, stay disciplined during the games and good things will happen. Our pass rush and pressure up front was of noticeable improvement from last year, hopefully the secondary will come along shortly. GBR!!!! Did you have your eyes open on Saturday? They ran those stinkin crossing routes for 10-15 yards repeatedly without the play getting stopped, that's how it reminded me of a Cosgrove defense, the inability for the defense to adjust on the fly. You think that game was a marked improvement over last year? Nevada was held to 185 yards offense in the opener, and that team has more offensive firepower than Western Michigan does. Also, don't tell me to go cheer for another team if I wasn't pleased. That's a bullsh#t attitude. What I saw on Saturday was not a marked improvement of bogastic proportions that has been built up. True, they may be building towards that, but they aren't there yet. I am supportive of this team, but after the past 5 years or so, I am cautiously optimistic and would like to see more encouraging signs before drinking the Boberry kool-aid that everyone is drunk on. I think this team can and will get better, but after 1 game, I am not going to say they are awful, not going to say they are great. I am saying I saw a lot of things that we saw in the past few years that many complained about. Hopefully those things get corrected and they can continue to improve. I think that is where we will see the difference in coaching staffs. I'm not passing judgement, which is why I said, "I hope to see marked improvement between game 1 and 2 when most improvement takes place." I don't understand why some people cannot accept objective observations about their team. I don't think I stated anything that wasn't obvious in watching the game. Some of you need to settle down a bit. Geez. Yeah we had a little bit of trouble with a couple certain routes, and got burned by the TE a few times, but it never approached looking like a Cosgrove defense. Here is why: 1. when we stopped a guy behind the backfield early in the game, all 11 people were there making the tackle, I can't even remember the last time I have seen that 2. 8 rushing yards 3. DL's that do something other than act like they are blocking the O linemen 4. CB's that try to make plays on the ball more than the reciever 5. 4 sacks 6. 2 turnovers (left a few on the field, too) 7. and most importantly people acting excited- even coaches (lol @ ekeler). yeah we held Nevada to 185 yards last year, but had we played them later in the year when things were clicking and they had Kopernick starting, it would have been different. Agreed, we will get better. We have the talent, definetly the coaches, all thats needed is discipline and reps.

Bring it on! Go Big Red!
