      As a man who hates wisconsin, I am offended that Russel Wilson is an NFL quarterback.

  2. As a Kermit the Frog fan and an avid member of the National Association for the Advancement of Green Cartoons, I am offended by the North Texas Mean Green. This one is absolutely untrue of Kermit the Frog as not all green cartoons are mean.

      Michigan has plain and simply underacheived with the talent they have on their hands...they'll drop a few more this year IMO. I predicted them to be 3rd or 4th on the Legends this year.

      Yet...I'll add this...they made it to the Sugar and won it...so I'll give them that and it's an impressive feat. I would expect to see a bit more consistency though

      I don't think Hoke quite has "his guy" at QB yet. Hokes a good coach, I like his approach to coaching. He will win games.

  4. Wish we didn't have a bye week. We have a lot of momentum I feel. Wish it would have came after the Minnesota game or in between NW and Michigan. Still, we are in a very good spot. We control our own destiny and that is something that not all teams in our conference can say.

      Geez. Where is the fun in that?

  5. For the recruiting followers: 1) We got our top priority at QB 2) We got our top priorities at OG 3) We got our top priority at DT 4) We are still waiting on two of our top targets at OT 5) We are still very much in the picture for many more of our top targets. Really solid class so far IMO. Just need to add a few more names that we shouldn't miss on.

      Pelini and the coaches have finished the recruiting wars in good fashion the last two years. We need what....about 8 to 10 players to fill this class? If we get the OT's, a few DB's, at least 1 LB and whatever else the coaches can find we'll be in decent shape with 3 good classes in a row.

    4. Warrior10

      Warrior10

      I believe they said we would take 4-5 DB's....we are at 3 now. So 1-2 more is what we are looking at.

  6. Two things that really stick out and erases doubt in my mind that Bo has taken over complete control on defense is that we are running more and more of that Spinner package where we bring 7 guys and we are seeing more corner blitzes. I haven't seen us bring the corners this much since 2010

    1. I am I

      Maybe he was saving it for B10 play? But agreed, we seem to be on a much better trajectory since SDSU. Bo Knows

      Didn't we bring the corners quite a bit against Wyoming?

      I mean, he's coaching at Northwestern. Imagine if he had remotely similar talent. 70-31 would be out of the question.

      Classy move by Bo. Let'em score one. Even TO gave Phillips a second chance. LOL.

  9. Tommy panics when he reads blitz.

      da skers

      Tommy had issues when he isn't n the play action pass just like I stated last week. They need to work on pocket passing with him over the spring.

  10. 1) Bo Pelini has clearly taken over full control of our defense. Sets and calls have been so much better the past two weeks. 2) why we continue to run stretch plays with our slowest RB is beyond me.

  11. I'm not a huge fan of Bridgewater's motion on intermediate routes in between the hashes. I feel he could get his elbow up a bit higher.

      Well, I did just do a lap around the airport and you get back right there on Pershing where UPS is, I'm sure if I go another 3 blocks the other way I could find a few working girls.

  13. Just put my deposit down on my puppy. Hopefully have him ready to go hunting by this time next year. Don't know how much I'll get out this season.

  14. Still seeing a ton of people claim recently that we have a lot of talent in our program. Those will probably be the same people that yell about how we can't recruit in February.

  16. I think it is a bit of an overreaction to claim that TM hasn't recovered from the injury against aTm his freshman year. Sure, the ligaments in an ankle are never the same once they are stretched out, but with the proper rehab he should be fine. I would let that fly his sophomore year. But I think it has more to do with Big Ten defenses being in better positions to make plays than the Big 12.

      I wouldn't disagree with you there JJ. Lack of depth up until this year definately hasn't helped either. When you watch KSU from 2010, sure Taylor made perfect reads that night, but he was helped by KSU's defense being out of position and taking unGodly horrible defensive pursuit angles.

    3. QMany

      He did rush for 205 yards against one of the best defenses in CFB last year.

    4. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      With Taylor, you can just tell how he is going to run in a game once you see his body language. He used to run with more abandon and I've only noticed that same thing a few times in the last two years. Kinda like how you could tell Favre was going to play by seeing his eyes.

  19. If you want some good X's and O's talk go check out JMFBd thread on defensive adjustments. Give your educated opinion on why its tough for us to stop the run from the shotgun.

    1. It'sNotAFakeID

      It'sNotAFakeID

      Just like in NCAA. It's hard to stop the run out of the shotgun.

      Every team has issues with it. Ours, I am convinced are systematic.

  20. After rewatching part of the game I realized that Bo did more defensive coaching in that game than in any other since the 2010 aTm game. When he called players out (Afalava and Green) they responded. Andrew Green played the best game of his career Saturday.

      Rose and Baptiste are the only ones I'd trust in press coverage. I don't get the Evans love affair.

      Exactly Warrior10... HATE to say this, but J-Mitch being hurt...is really going to help J. Rose show what he can do... I'd love to see us in our aggressive press coverages again... Similar to the seattle seahawks legion of BOOM!

    4. Warrior10

      Warrior10

      I agree...but JRose needs some work in run game. Didnt seem aggressive at all

  21. Really hoping we show the same progress defensively this week as we did last. We need to be playing a lot better on that side of the ball to beat even Minnesota. I was not at all unimpressed with their offense against Michigan. That score was deceiving. A lot closer than the final score.

    1. Treand3

      Treand3

      Leidner is a gamer. He's got the moxy and mobility that has given our defense fits. I was very impressed with him. If Minnesota's pass rush was there that game would have been a lot different. #88 will be a handful too.

    2. Count 'Bility

      Count 'Bility

      Minnesota was on the move with 7 minutes left and the score 28-13 and they turned it over. Michigan then scored then scored again quite promptly on a pick 6. It went from 28-13 to 42-13 in the blink of an eye when Minnesota was threatening to give Michigan fans a heart attack. Michigan is JClowny-overrated.

  22. I think Avery Moss deserves a BlackShirt before Randy Gregory.

      It was painfully obvious that both announcers has vested interests in the game.

  25. Northwestern has never been good on defense. Just opportunistic. They wouldn't have beat us in 2011 had Rex not fumbled inside the five or Quincy fumbled on the 20.

      I agree. There was definite improvement today. And that's all I really care about at this point. Just continue to improve over the course of the season and play your best ball at the end of the year.

    3. EZ-E

      We are so young on defense it's stupid. All of our major contributors on defense have their best football in front of them. Need to get our linebackers to start flying to the ball. Afalava was a monster today.

      Afalava was a dark shadow of OHanlon today in that 33 as he rocketed into ball carriers.
