I do not get frustrated when the Huskers lose to a superior team in a bowl we should not have even been in, but it does frustrate me when I get on HuskerMax and Huskerboard to read people critiquing everything down to how our QB throws the ball and how our coach yells "too much". I am positive some of you have never played a snap of football and that is alright. Hell-- Leach and Weiss havn't either. You can learn to game without playing it. With that said everyone on this forum must understand the simplicity of the downfall of this years team: The offensive and defensive lines. I could sit here and throw guys under the bus, point out certain plays in the game or throughout the season on both the offensive and defensive lines, but I am not going to write a novel. Football starts up front. It doesn't matter who we have back there, what their rivals star ranking was or how fast those WR's are. It starts upfront. We will continue to have 4 loss season until we get the right guys in here who have the athleticism to get hats on LBs and the brains to pick up a simple blitz. We can have guys that cover people so tightly they grab face masks and get ejected from the game, but without the front 4 being capable of playing assignment football and the ability to put on a decent pass rush, we will continue to get ran all over by a 4.8 40 QBs. This defensive scheme works when you have the right front 4(i.e 2009) Just look at the ignorance of this so called "writer". The man doesn't even mention the front 5 on offense. This is the ignorance everyone on here must over come and the frustration anyone with football knowledge gets while reading forums that are supposed to be filled with the greatest/knowledgeable fans in all of college football http://bigrednetwork.com/story/turning_the_page_to_2012/ Keep losing sleep over Martinez. Keep wondering about Green. Ask yourself if we have the right coaches. Go ahead and waste your time. It starts up front. and I assure you the coaches are doing everything they can to get the right guys in here to make things work.. Just check the recent recruiting classes- the future looks very bright if these trench workers meet their potential.
