how chili is chili?Mid 40's to mid 50's after sunset, but it feels a lot colder due to the moisture in the air.Edit: reading that back I hear my dad's voice in my head "Oh bite me! It's 19 degrees here!" I had a friend who lived in the Bay Area and she said SF cold is a weird damp cold-you don't get warmed up for a long time. I've had plenty of friends and family spend time in that area, none of them ever said that it was particularly cold. Never said it was colder than winter in the Midwest.

So we beat a college playoff team and played right with another team that was a couple plays away from it..... But we are going to get blown out(for the first time this year) by UCLA.....hmmmm There was that whole Purdue blow out.

What he did at OrSU doesn't have any effect on what he does at Nebraska....... .....oh wait.

That's pretty sobering.

What exactly did he do? https://twitter.com/bubbaprog/status/673367999085043712 Have to wonder about Cook. With this, not mentioning their RB and being a 5th year senior and starting QB but still not a captain. Something is off. Yeah something doesn't seem right about that whole situation. The best play on that final drive, IMO was the option keeper by Cook. He played like a captain. 1st and goal from the 2, and they run 3 straight times to win the game. Classic. Does anyone think that fat Danny would do what works? Nah. He's be pitching it all over the field.

Because we suck this year? Let it go. Always next year pal. You're going to have a tough life being a husker fan if you expect us to be great every year. Maybe we'll get back to being great, but not this year. Not next year. Tom Osborne disagrees.

I don't know about that...it actually makes me feel worse that we have the talent and ability to beat the Big Ten champions, yet somehow manage to lose 7 games. I'm definitely pulling for Sparty all the way, but I don't want our seasons to be defined by one major win against a highly ranked team followed by several losses. Yep. True Riley...er loser mentality. Finish sub .500 and beat the champs. Hip, hip, hooray.

Is that really any worse than a run getting stuffed at the line of scrimmage on 3rd and short?YesBS.There are screams coming from virtually every direction.....fans and media......for Riley's offense to establish the running game, especially on short distance 3rd downs.Why would you want to do the smart thing and run on 3rd or 4th and 1 when you can hurl a 30-40 yd fade route down the field instead? I just watched Alabama convert a 4th and 2 with a roll out play action pass to the flats. Play calling wasn't the issue vs. Iowa. Tommy had Cethan Carter (TE) wide open on the play. Tommy's lack of vision and ability to check down prevented us from converting on that 4th down. He just made a terrible decision and everyone knows it. A good offensive coordinator knows how to put an offense in position to succeed. I wonder if ANY play we needed a yard or two if Cross or Jano would have been a more viable option than ANY pass play?Not with the offensive line we had.That's because the coaches prefer pass protection. Jerald Foster is our best run blocking O-lineman, and he didn't sniff the field.No, they prefer well rounded players that can do it all,not just run block. Foster will see the field next fall though.They prefer guys who are better at pass blocking over run blocking. They also don't rotate because that's their philosophy from their NFL days, not because of any supposed lack of talent.Uncle Milt didn't rotate either. He subbed All Husker fans know this. Aaron Taylor agrees.

It takes a big stick to beat back all the husker haters on this board. But it is my calling.Cuz it's obvious that Crouch made Dr. Tom look like a good coach.

From everything I've read/heard, the pre-snap coverage dictated he had 1 on 1 coverage for Reilly, and he was supposed to go to that matchup. Was it smart? No. But that's the way they teach this offense. Yeah, this excuse is dumb. If you're throwing the fade, you don't have time to read through progressions. Carter was never an option with the play that was called. We got Langsahaned bad right there,

I agree that Nebraska needs to upgrade it's secondary. Perhaps with the bowl practices and off season they can improve however, I'm not willing to go all in on a true freshman. I think you have to redshirt him but I believe this is contingent on whether or not Tommy will work with Danny Langsdorf and Mike Riley during the off season to correct his mechanics. If he could simply improve his footwork, a lot of the interceptions he threw this year don't happen. This opportunity also gives the staff to really hammer home decision making in the pocket because a majority of his INT's came from poor decision making. The secondary wasn't a huge issue last year, a least not in pass defense.

Glad to see you're starting to figure it out. Trollolololololol.

Shows what a simple upgrade in coaching will do if the players want to be coached. Good on Alonzo. Imagine if the entire staff had been an upgrade...god The sad thing is that Fischer is a better coach than Williams. And Williams is the second best coach on the staff, next to Bray.

This could only be the beginning But if they win the NC then our fans will start obsessing over Iowa and this will be fuel for the "Fire Eichorst" crowd. The irony of our AD eating crow... Well, Pederhorst is obviously incompetent. Or a Badger plant. Yes, he is a spy that was employed by none other than Barry Alvarez who is still butt hurt over not getting the HC job at his alma mater. I'm only kidding, I think. You're not kidding, ironically. Lol, that thinking is so far fetched. I don't think Eichorst would butcher his own job. That's just ridiculous. His own job? You mean being the Wisconsin AD? Yeah, how would sabotaging Nebraska effect that?

Not Riley, obviously.

Why would it be? His plan is working to perfection.

No, they didn't. That lie has been debunked numerous times on this board. That Purdue loss was a blowout, 42 to 16 in the 33rd. Does 5 and 7 sting you? It does me. no it doesn't, this was a throw away year.Billy C. Agrees with you. Throw away year, throw away staff. Seems fitting. We'd better get used to it, since we're saddled with this staff for another year or two. Maybe 7 or more with any luck. Not a chance. But keep trolling.

It does me. no it doesn't, this was a throw away year.That is a losers point of view...IF that is true...Loser Riley should have come right out and and said that Yeah, didn't he say that this was a championship team that plays at a championship level? Not that Riley would know anything about that......

Because being a "feature back" in Mike Riley's offense isn't that hot a gig as compared to being a "feature back" at an Ohio State or a Wisconsin of a few years back. That's why they favor a 2* over the stable of 4*s they have.

This. In spades.

Gerry's comment (where you're basing your opinion) contradicts every single thing the players and coaches have said for the last year. And Ameer's play was great, but it was a tie game. Also, we won, which is slightly different than getting blown out by Purdue. I think you don't know the difference between an opinion and a fact. If you consider a 10 point loss to Purdue a blowout, what do you consider the beatdowns we took at the hands of Pelini?Did you watch the game? NU was down by 39 points at one point or something crazy like that. To a team that averages 1 fbs win per year over the last three or four. I think it was around 19 but what is 20 points when you are trying to make something into a lie that it is not. Irony.
