For the sake of the VB team keep him away and AMart from Cook’s players

Yikes 

Nothing that we don't already know. Nebraska consistently finds ways to lose

If Martinez stays in the game, Nebraska is going to lose this game

Purdue's QB might be Nebraska's best defender so far

If rondale moore is out Nebraska has a 50/50 shot at winning. If he plays i dont think Nebraska has a chance in hell of winning. That Indiana receiver had like 15 catches last week and chins answer was to cover him with barry. If moore plays and is anywhere near 100% he rips this defense apart.

Okay, here it is. Keep in mind, this is just a rumor. 

Jim Tressel is coming to Nebraska to take over as head coach, and Scott Frost will be the offensive coordinator. So, Troy Walters is the one that will be leaving. 

Seriously people. You really need to work on your Google game. It's on numerous message boards

This is a joke.  Pages of people saying they know something that they can't share - shouldn't post at all.

It's pretty easy to find. I messaged someone from this board to see if they would say something, and before they could respond, I read about it on a Google

Definitely some one who is currently  on the team.  Or on the roster. They might be a defection, a transfer or a dismissal. It will be a shock to some, but not those who know.  It's being posted (rumored) on some message boards, but don't talk about it...

I read the rumor. Hopefully everything works out. Not sure how this works for a student athlete. 

I thought the offensive play calling was fine once Vedral went out. Yeah, it was a lot of the same plays, but Indiana wasn't exactly stopping it. I'm fine calling the same play, or similar plays if it nets positive yardage. If the other team can't stop it, keep doing it until they can.

I agree that we need to be good at them, but we can't even block a screen properly. My point is that a defensive lineman is standing next to our RB on those screens forcing bad or less than ideal throws most of the time that I've seen.

Timing is everything with the screens. Everyone has to work together: oline, RB, and QB. Luke threw one of the best screen passes I have seen at Nebraska for a while.

With all the talk from HCSF and some of the other players (Wan'dale) about guys not taking things seriously, not being focused, and not buying in, which JR/SR's do you see being sat down now that HCSF doesn't have to worry about burning redshirts? I could see the Davis twins and some of our O-line taking a seat.

I doubt anyone will be sitting

These actually have really good reviews.  Id like a QLED from Samsung so ill see what they run around black friday

I can vouch for these TVs. Solid picture, great input lag time (if you're into gaming), and I really like the built in Roku. Great value TV

I understand the debate of the actual player ratings from when they were in high school.

 

Football is not general ledger accounting, especially when the original numbers are up to 5 years old.

What would change the ratings? Coaching?

You are welcome to your interpretation, but I'm not interested in discussing because it would be a circular debate.

 

You're welcome to be as critical as you like.

 

It seems like it's been mentioned 1,000 times why recruiting rankings prior to Frost's arrival are meaningless.  A high percentage of those guys were part of the attrition of roster flipping.

 

Reading your above post, it seems rather obvious you don't think Frost is the right guy.

While the overall recruiting ratings would not be accurate for the reason you mention above (attrition), the actual ratings of the players that are starters on the depth chart show Nebraska with the slightest edge over Minnesota, and more of an edge over Indiana. If you looked at the ratings, and everything else was equal, you would say that Nebraska and Minnesota should be in a close game, and Nebraska should win comfortably against Indiana. 

So, I think Undone's interpretation might be closer to the truth than the "no talent" argument I keep seeing. 

A few notes:

1) The rating is from 247 sports, which I feel is a fair evaluation of talent

2) I got the depth charts from the team website. Just seeing Nebraska's week-to-week, the depth charts for other teams may not be 100% accurate. If there are mistakes, I would be happy to fix them

3) There were two players for Minnesota I couldn't find a composite rating for: Sam Renner and Jordan Howden. From what I understand, Sam is a walkon that had no other offers; Jordan had one other offer from Idaho St.

He's still built like a HSer. He'll get more comfortable as he fills out. 

I thought he was running pretty tough, considering his size. Not Wandale tough, but still tough. 

Sadly, I think my original prediction of one more win (against Maryland) looks pretty accurate.

I keep saying I'm not even going to watch the game next week, but I always do. I can't help it. Then I get irritated by what I see. I think I have issues. 

QBs are bound to get injured when they run that much

Stop putting linebackers on their best receiver. Jesus

Those of you in the "Huskers don't need alternate uniforms" camp can count Bill Moos among your group.  Word is he's not overly excited about them and think the Huskers brand is iconic enough to not need alternates.

 

I'm kind of mixed on them.  I've been underwhelmed by what we've had so that doesn't help.  But I think the players/recruits like them enough that one game a year is fine.

 

 

I don't mind the idea of alternative uniforms, but like you said, they have been really underwhelming. I think people make too big of a deal over them. The players and recruits like them, and it's once a year. 

Personally, I don't really care what the Huskers are wearing. I just want them to play well. I'm tired of seeing crappy football.

*Running out of home games that we have a decent chance of winning

Is this for their stellar defensive performance against Minnesota, is the bye week being counted as a game, or are they wearing them because it's probably the last home game they have an okay chance at winning? 

I picked 5-7. I think Nebraska beats Maryland and loses the rest.
