It was a glorified practice & the defense was holding back. 

I get what a spring game was, but last years "glorified practice" we put the ball on the ground several times. Watching running backs cover the ball this year is much more improved than last seasons "glorified practice" or regular season. Appreciate your t cents though

One of the biggest disappointments in the spring game is Alvano missing FGs.  That's something that is much less affected by the format of the game and it's probably way less of a stress situation than he will see all year next season.  And, he shanked some.

 

That's concerning.  He has some work to do this summer.

I am really hoping he can make some adjustments, but he has had since November to get things right and both of his kicks on Saturday were not close at both ends of the stadium. I really think the staff will give Nico Ottomanelli a good look when he gets on campus, or look in the Portal. When we have lost as many games in the last 3 years by single digit points, we cannot afford to not be confident at PK.

After watching the Spring game again this morning, I am pleased with the ball security of our running backs. We struggled starting with the spring game of putting the ball on the floor and it carried over to the season. They did a much better job of having two hands on the ball through contact, including TE's and RB's on screen plays.

It was said that both Hill and Bell had patella injuries. He said that one was more significant of an injury than the other.

Exactly what I was saying, these kids arehere because we see them as potential athletes! Its not like they are kids asking for pictures or gear from the players!

I was amazed at how many times I saw our security really being over the top with our official and unofficial visitors. Yelling at them to take a step off the gate or to move somewhere else. I can understand if they are a regular fan, but when the visitors are saying they are shocked with how they are being talked to when they are visitors is amazing to me. Thank goodness one has already signed his NLI lol

 When I talked to him at the game he said he was enjoying his visit and was excited to watch the game. Said his next OV is USC and he knows there facilities are nothing like ours but likes their Tradition just like ours.

Good dude said loved the facilities and the coaches! Loved the visit

I didn't know freshmen, that aren't going into this year's draft, ever worked out at pro-day.

They usually don't, but Rhule said that GA's usually do it and none were available so this is what they wanted to use.

Sign the #1 QB in this year's class.

Yea but he has 1year of eligibility, is anyone that confident Raiola will blow up like that his freshman year?

Not sure I would say package deal but getting McCord would have had us in a really good spot with Fleming from the sounds of it.

 

So I'm not sure we're totally out of it with Fleming but I'm not holding my breath at this point.

I just don’t see how we pull a high level receiver when there is nothing in place with who will be getting him the ball on a regular basis. I feel we would have to have some type of transfer QB that would make him comfortable with his decision. I don’t think Raiola would be enough to pull hi. With one year of eligibility remaining 

I read that Fleeks moved to RB today, has anyone heard what’s up with Emmett Johnson? I read that he was gonna get reps last week, but didn’t see him at all! We tan the piss out of AG and we saw last year what that does to him. 

Lol run action to help the passing game! These announcers are dumb!

All fall camp they have been saying that Defense is winning the scrimmages and practices. He’ll look where almost all of the single digits are

Play action works, regardless how wel the run game works. The fake draws the Lb’s up. 

It brought up the safety, which it didn’t do earlier in the game 

Everyone was worried about TOP in the first half, we have the ball 2 minutes more than Minnesota now after being down by almost 12 minutes at half

I think we want Ervin to be fresh for the 4th quarter. Rhule’s whole game plan was to get to the 4th 

It’s exactly what he said before camp even started. Run run run in the fourth

Sims taking big hits the first game of the season...

A tackle isn’t a big hit, he has been low on his runs, I haven’t seen one hit that I was like dang that’s a hard hit! we never said that with our option quarterbacks 

Oh ya play action doesn’t work,…

That’s a myth.  PA passes work regardless of how the run game works. 

Not true when u get the LB’s moving down hill and TE peeling off 

Just now, HuskerInLostWages said:

Glad the WR attempted to make a play on that ball, that was an extremely lazy attempt.  

First thing I noticed, barely put his hand in the air, like he was scared to get hit!

Loving seeing how physical Fidone has been blocking down field
