Underrated comment. Benhart looked like he had lead feet until this year. He still has issues with speed rushers, but he was much improved everywhere else. Also it appears that the team called plays to protect the OTs more than Whipple did in '22 (chip blocking, keeping more people in to protect).

Its called injuries. And we seen improvement as the year went on.  And yes, we need a left tackle. You are foolishly if you think that this will be corrected in 1 yr.

Even when they did call them in '22 you often had situations like an overload on the right but the back blocks to the left. Lots of situations that year where Nebraska had enough blockers but they were still getting free rushers. Last year the entire operation was much cleaner.

 

There is still a long ways to go, though. Nebraska gave up a sack on 10% of pass attempts, ranking about 121 out of 133 teams. A lot of that is because we really only passed the ball when we had to, usually in poor down and distance situations and obviously the revolving door of QBs isn't going to help that situation. A competent passer, and much more reliance on the quick game, will drastically improve that metric.

And this is where DR comes into play next season.  Matt Rhule is thinking with a better passer then it significantly helps the offense.

they make a pill to help you with that issue

Fun fact, the little 2.5-5 mg blue pills are great to take pre-workout if you want the best pump of your life in the gym. Just don’t take any nitrates (for up to 48 hours before) or eat an orange.
