  1. Someone save this poor guy from his own press conference. Jeez
  2. Only because 95% of coaches don't go for it enough.
  3. Predicted. And as meaningless in the big picture as the second half at Oregon.
  4. That's been there all year. Well, at least on this board.
  5. This is the half where we sorted show hope when the other team gives up. (which has been the case in recent weeks for OSU)
  6. Time of possession is nearly equal. That's something, right?
  7. I've seen 7 on 7 drills more competitive than this game. Everything is so casual.
  8. We need a new plan. The only saving grace for this spread is them not coming out at half due to laughing pains.
  9. Mixing it up I see. Usually he likes his screens on second down.
  10. Well, yeah, if you want to get silly. I'm just saying, those turnpike dollar readers are kinda slow.
  11. Those pesky refs would remind them. We need to get Big 12 refs, they can't tell time.
  12. Ohio St would still just cover the only 2 receivers Langs released on the route.
  13. I'm not even sure a +2 or +3 turnover margin is actually enough. Turnovers are worth, on average, about 4.5 points (unless it's Lee). Unless this offense can both consistently move the ball and punch it in, that's not enough. Nebraska needs to do something different, something they're not prepared for. Something that makes them think. Something that makes our other plays more effective. Nebraska needs a multiplier.
  14. It's usually a bit trivial to suggest you have to win that battle, since most of the time the team that does wins, but Nebraska needs something to help equalize. And a lot of it.
  15. Money from every game being on TV, that drives the entire economy of sports, is more the demise than the TV itself. There is an atmosphere you simply can't replace, but if you're going to charge thousands for a product then that product better be desirable. It's fair for some would be attendees to say that the product hasn't delivered. Convenience is sort of a weird thing in regards to sales. Online connectivity has made video game sales high, yet the missing social interactions of being next to the other player has helped people rediscover board gaming. The unmatched convenience of ebooks should have driven paper books away, yet it can't. Same for music streaming and vinyl. There is just something to be said for factors other than convenience. While TV has similar convenience to these other things, you can't match the deafening roar of the crowd on a kickoff return at home like you can at the stadium.
  16. Expected high winds could limit their damage. Not sure they would score 60 even in ideal weather.
  17. Who cares. This is backwards thinking. You play to win the game, your identity comes from doing something well. It's an issue of winning solving everything, or better yet, just another way of saying this team isn't winning enough.
  18. I was just jokin about the "boldness". I could definitely see them not covering, though. That line moved a fair bit after it opened. Some showing at -37 now.
