This just shouldn't be happening...again. We should have beaten them by 20+. Seems like we can never readjust when the momentum shifts and it just gets worse...

I agree but we keep saying that and then get more of the same:(

Martinez has looked slow all day...is he hurt? What's up?

How many drops???

I am just stunned. After watching first half I thought we would come out ready to compete. Instead, penalties, a terrible ejection, an offense going nowhere and just a large meltdown. We are beating ourselves and it's just so sad.

What he said!

I am not giving up as I feel like we have completely dominated this game and could be up by 20+. They have done absolutely nothing save for two big plays and we have given the ball up twice now. Unless the momentum just swings in their favor, I can't see why we don't have a great second half and win this thing.

Couldn't agree more. Just ridiculous. I would transfer out of NU as quick as I could, Carnes and other back-ups are looking at zero-to-little time on the field unless there is a serious injury.

I imagine that a lot of teams can say that. 9 wins is acceptable--as long as there are some 11 or 12 win seasons sprinkled in as well in our future. He hasnt given us any of those yet, so forgive me if I'm not on the band wagon. Not to be a debbie-downer, but it's more of a 6-3 season if you take out 3 of the early season games against way lessor opponents.

You have got to play the back-ups either in blow-out losses or blow-out wins. These guys need to get some reps and also like someone said, the starters need to stand on the sidelines and get some perspective when you are getting killed. I live in Phoenix, and although a different sport, the Phoenix Suns come to mind. Back in the early 90's we had a coach who would play a second squad of 5 even in crunch time to give the starters a rest but also to have quality depth. Then our coach a few years ago, only played 7-8 guys the entire game. When a starter went down or the front 5 were gassed, we were dead. No experience on court and we couldn't afford to have any of the starters out for more than a few minutes. I don't understand a coaching staff who won't give time/experience to its players, starters and back-ups. Back in the TO days, we would have our starters out of a game by the 2nd series of the 3rd Qtr. Of course, we were good back then...

Wow. I wish Pelini would have gone off on the refs, r u serious?

Next year, Urban will install a triple-option only offense at OSU:)

Burkhead seems to understand the option better than Martinez. That was classic.

How is this not coaching? Everything we are doing wrong comes from the top. To prepare for the season with this offense in place was Bo's decision. It just goes on and on...

Agree. Even when we have won I am not happy. Coaching has to start to take responsibility. We are a joke:(

I agree. Been a Husker Fan since late 70's and just sick of this crap. Coaching is horrible, this hurry up offense just kills everything, TOP is so one-sided, no offensive identity, defense on the field the whole game, etc., etc. Next year will be even worse with the guys we r losing...

Not nearly as much as Spielman. If he were on the field, he'd have Robinsons junk in his mouth Ha!

Urban Meyer is annoying:(

19 seconds? R U Kidding Me?

pathetic...3 and out. again. our offense is just so bad:(

agree:(

Ugh! Have a bad feeling about this game, feels like it could be another Wisconsin:(

R u kidding me, need a 1st down...

We will probably give them the ball back:(

Once again, playing to not lose instead of playing to win...which means we will lose. Pathetic.
