Is this a win or a loss?

According to the boxscore, 36 rushing attempts vs 33 passes......hmmmmmm

Will this coaching staff lose this game?

This is something Bo Pelini would say...And then True would lambast him for it. Haha! Yep you guys are right and it is funny. Key difference here though and I know most of you won't get it or even care to read this, but the big difference is that I supported Bo for about the first 5 years. Hell, f#*k that, I even supported Bo in his final year when he swore he had seen the light and some changes were coming. 7 years in, we watched the same team do the same stuff in the same schemes. If you can't respect the difference there, then piss off and quit talking to me. The fact that you can't find any blame on the coaches acceptable in possibly the worst season in Nebraska history is laughable. I mean, Jesus our play calling is like some 12 year old playing Madden for the first time. I think a blind person pointing randomly at a playbook could call a better game. But no, you're right this is all Bo's and the players fault. Riley is completely f'ing blameless. Riley is showing what Riley does. He talks a good game, but has never won anything or done anything. Everyone says that he couldnt win at little oregon because of resources, are you guys forgetting how bad he was in his short stint in the NFL? And again please read anything anyone from oregon state has said.....Riley has 2 things going for him Jack and sh#t, and Jack left town.

He will do his lame ass Hip Hip Hooray with a sad face

This is the worst coached team I have ever seen. Anyone defending this coach needs to go hide in a hole. We may not have any super stars this year, but for sh#ts sake, this coach is making damn sure there are no stars on this team. To you people blaming depth, any time you have the threat of firing a coach like we have for the last few years it hurts recruiting, and now when you hire a coach that is short on marbles you get the crap fest we get to watch now. Guess I can sit here in ohio and listen to the news talk about JT Barrett and his arrest.

Lopsided loss by a horrible team great HIRE. So we got rid of a coach that got blown out in big games, for a coach that loses and occasionally gets blown out by horrible teams.

What was that about getting a coach that wouldnt get blown out. This program is a joke.

You want to feel like this all should have been known? Read all the old articles from when he was at oregon state. Examples: (Read the comments its almost as if they are saying the same thing) <forehead slap> http://www.oregonlive.com/beavers/index.ssf/2014/11/risk_of_firing_mike_riley_far.html sample from comments: "adam Nov 7, 2014 Recruiting and $$ challenges does not explain an offense with a senior QB not being able to run a two minute drill. It does not excuse throwing 2 fade routes in the end zone to a freshman WR on 3nd and 4th and goal when you've been running the ball well all day long or on 3rd and 2 against UTAH when you have the chance to put Utah away. The play calling has been dreadful. It's been incredibly vanilla as well. Drop back passes all day long. Very few screens or fly sweeps or other types of misdirection and trick plays. The defense knows exactly where Mannion will be on almost every play. And tell me we can't recruit a mobile QB when Eastern Washington can come to our house and beat us with one. I want to hear from the Riley defenders on this one." "

So does anyone think we will hear from eichorst about another embarrassing loss? How bout that sideline penalty for arguing with the ref?

Field goal range

Jano should have gone down at the 1inch line..... to much time for wisc

So does Perlman or eichorst come out and say this is a great improvement over random blowout losses from the past.

Since people love asking about sig wins, name a sig win for Riley.........there isnt one, because he has never won anything in his life. He last beat Oregon in 2007, only 2 of the losses in the last 7 years have not been embarrassingly bad blow outs (isnt that why we fired the last coach). This wasnt suppose to be a rebuild from ground up hire, it was suppose to be a hire that erased a couple losses off of the record. We got a team that looks bad, really bad. The defense stats from last week look better because the weather was crap, we can only hope that every sat has bad weather. He is the "nice guy" because there isnt nothing else positive to say about him, other coaches probably like him because he is an easy win. This hire is something that will take drastic change at the university to come back from. After Solich was fired I believe it was Urban Meyer that said paraphrase "Why would I go to a school that would fire someone with a winning record". Hey maybe out of left field, since this hire was from right, Nebraska hires Tressel as the new president and then he can rebuild the Athletic department, and while he is at it, figure out how to get back in the AAU.

You want to know why Riley is always called a nice guy? Because when you have nothing else positive to say about a person you say...."well he was a nice guy" Other coaches love him because he is an easy win. Ive been dormant on the forums not posting for a long while. This university needs to fire the chancellor all the way down. He blamed bo for hurting nebraska's reputation, but Perlman has done more damage over the years than anyone. This game was just pathetic, the whole season has.
