  1. This team has fight in them.....love how the coaching staff believes in them and doesn't let them get their heads down.
  2. Is Luther Campbell on the side line tossing the Cane DB's 100 dollar bills for that BS targeting play?
  3. I was lucky enough to be at that game...I had a TON of fun that night!
  4. Color me shocked... The truth is a very bitter pill to swallow. So, is AS now some dark horse for the playoff? No, we were expected to beat them and beat them bad and that is exactly what we did. We did what we were supposed to. What else did you want to see other than Pelini on the sidelines? Sorry, I didn't see a whoop ass performance tonight. And since you obviously don't pay attention I don't care if Bo is on the sideline. I guess I remember what the 80's and 90's were. This was no whoop ass. We gave up a lot of yards and big plays. The offense was mostly pedestrian against a sub par opponent. I'm not ready to crown this team as playoff ready. I do as well and I quit comparing the Husker teams of today to those teams... oh I'd say about 15 years ago?! I have no idea what you mean by a "mostly pedestrian offense"? We had almost 600 yards of total offense tonight. Not to mention 31 first downs. I guess some people are just never happy
  5. Imani isn't good. He needs a clean run for 3-4 yards to make a nice gain. I think he is good however...I just think he lacks the vision and shiftiness that our other tailbacks have. Just a guess Is he really a good RB if he lacks vision and shiftiness? Those are 2 pretty big attributes of a good RB. Not if he is strictly a down hill runner. A bruiser back so to speak

  7. I think once Stanley Morgan gets more playing time...he will be one hell of a deep threat for the Huskers!
  8. Maybe the coaching staff knew what Wilbon brings to the table and wanted to see how Newby would handle the leading role at tail back? In any case...right now we are setting fine at the tail back position.
  9. Oh I agree but the way he was playing tonight, we have to save him for conference play. I thought with us up by 4 TD's they should have put him back in the stable and brought out some of the other horses to get some carries.
  10. You hit the nail on the head. With Beck, we were big or bust. No in between. Personally, I prefer a grinding drive that eats clock and keeps their O off the field. Agree with the other posters. I think it was by design as we could go yard if needed, but the approach was working. I would also like to think that Riley and his experience maybe actually use games like this to experiment a little to see what works and doesn't in real games. Something I would never credit the previous staff with. It was nice to see this coaching staff stick with what's working and not go away with it it on some dumb bone head play.
  11. Ugh the kid was getting burnt a ton tonight! Hope he shakes this game off and brings it next week....
  12. I know it's nice to see this kid rack up some rushing yards but to be honest....I thought he was left in there a bit too long towards the end of the game. I kept holding my breath hoping like hell he wouldn't get hurt!
  13. I honestly think it was by design. With the way the running game was going, there was no need to try and air it down field or hit the "home run" so to speak.
  14. One thing we need to do this week is clean up our secondary play! You know Miami is going to be watching that during film sessions this week. Kaaya is no slouch when it comes to throwing the rock.
  15. Some don't seem to grasp this concept. People saying the football program is done after 1 game is actually comical to some degree
  16. After watching the game today...(yeah I know who plans a stupid wedding on Husker Game Day) Our OL was really missing blocking assignments. I chalk this up as learning new blocking schemes and verbiage. I have no doubts it will be one of the main focal points during this weeks practice.
  17. It made me think of this.... I am pretty sure our coaches have some experience in what they are doing
  18. I was actually stuck at a wedding when the game was being played but kept checking my phone for updates. I noticed that we were up with a few second to go and and told my wife it sounds like we squeaked out a close one. We then were driving home and they were running off the college scores on the radio, they said the final score of the game and replayed the BYU announcer losing it in the booth. I am as pissed as the next Husker fan about this loss but as they say....there is plenty of football left. From the stats and highlights we had some very nice plays and some not very nice plays. From the look of things, Nebraska really needs to concentrate on the OL blocking and the running game. I did noticed that our CB's were playing way too soft. Oh well... I think we will get these things fixed before we go into conference play. No need to hit the panic button yet! Oh and thank God for an open bar!
  19. Michigan's TE did a great job....
