That play broke us IMO. We showed all day we could cover their guys. Not sure why that call at that moment Yeah, that’s fair. I’ll tip the cap to Sanders and WR for breaking our back. Maybe I’m going to give Sanders or CU OC too much credit, but I believe they recognized the all out blitz and checked to a quick drop and fade route knowing they were in man. Quote Link to comment
chamrocck Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 16 hours ago, Mavric said: This in a nutshell: We have a good defense. But that defense is negated by a turnover machine offense. Colorado has playmakers so when we keep giving them chances they’ll eventually hit on one or three, etc. Recipe for the disaster we saw despite a good effort from the defense. 2 Quote Link to comment

MyBloodIsRed16 Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 I learned we can almost reach last year's sack total in two games Quote Link to comment

I did notice Lutovski in there but I was a little drunk by then and not sure who he replaced. I'll have to go back and watch Quote Link to comment

I almost forgot the score was 13-7 halfway through the third quarter. I guess I had hope, but how many of us thought Nebraska was going to rally and win the game? I just wasn't feeling it from this team. Quote Link to comment

Guy Chamberlin Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 I learned that Colorado could be penalized more often than Nebraska and it still wouldn't shut up Husker Board's ref conspiracy theorists. 3 3 Quote Link to comment

Packerhuskerfan Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 Sack totals don't mean remotely as much as turnovers. We still give up big yardage plays on defense and whenever the offense gives us a glimmer of hope or you need the defense to give a final stand, you can depend on the defense to finally let up. The defense is the best part of this team by far, but they aren't game changers. Quote Link to comment

You need your QB to be a gamer in college. Honestly one of the most important positions in all of sports. Look at Alabama last night. Sims just doesn’t have it but he doesn’t have a ton around him either. Quote Link to comment

One additional M for each turnover. So this week he will be Simmmmms(I putting the Earvin one on him as well) That's a great idea! Quote Link to comment
MyBloodIsRed16 Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 Haarberg didn't play as bad as I originally thought. Had one really bad throw had two nice passes dropped. Also threw a TD pass. That's just as many as Sims has thrown this year 3 Quote Link to comment
soup Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 So unpopular take here. Sims fumbles are not necessarily his fault. They are the lines fault. It was a silent count most of the game which is controlled by the line. And their timing was off multiple times. (I would be willing to give the first one to Sims but it wasn’t a great snap) I seem to remember a certain center that was rolled for bad snaps and causing Adrian to fumble. Very few of those were tagged to Martinez and rightly left at the feet of the bad snap. 3 Quote Link to comment

Big difference between Sims being hit right in the hands and dropping it, versus Cam throwing it 3 yards to the right of Adrian or at his feet. If it's anywhere near his hands, it's the QBs fault. 2 Quote Link to comment
