Jason Sitoke Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 Tony White has lost his shine. These off tackle plays where the end fails to set the edge is coaching. Bad penalties is partially coaching. Not getting off the field in the 3rd quarter. Blown coverages near the goal line. Confusion in the secondary. Illinois basically did what they wanted all game long. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
Vince R. Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 I am not going to poke at the players even though I thought the D-line played sub-par, but in this case, Tony White got chewed up and out-coached. Illinois did not look this good the first three weeks which raised my eyebrow based on what I saw. I will be checking for quotes, but it appears they prepared all offseason for this game. When I tell you they had an answer for every alignment and look, they literally had an answer for everything we did on Defense. It's not about the players here. The players kept us in the game but we got schooled schematically. The players needed to make a play to save the staff and they didn't. 1 5 Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 What we had to choose from on offense tonight: Raiola throwing: 35 times, 8.1 yards per attempt RJohnson running: 4 times, 4.3 yards per attempt RJohnson receiving: 2 times, 7.0 yards per attempt What did we do the second-most times (after Raiola throwing)? Have Dowdell run it 20 times. All of 3.6 yards per attempt. But, by all means, if something isn't working, keep banging your head against the wall. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment
The Murphinator Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 Neyor not holding on to the TD really ended up biting them in the end. 4 2 1 Quote Link to comment

Nebfanatic Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 1 minute ago, HuskerNation1 said: We should have kept running the ball on 3rd and 3 after we were having success on that drive. Nebraska is horrible at situational play calling. When we have a generational talent at QB and drew up a play to get a guy wide open in the end zone? Cmon man. Literally drew up a td play and we couldn't execute. We went down and scored to go ahead at the end of the half then we killed almost 7 minutes at the end of the game and drew up the perfect play to go ahead with a minute to go essentially. Things weren't perfect but the players were in a position to win and did not execute. 3 3 Quote Link to comment
Packerhuskerfan Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 Tbere should have been a penalty on Illinois in OT. They had no problems calling penalties on Nebraska. But crappy kicking and OT performance doom Nebraska again. 6 wins is probably the ceiling for this team now. Quote Link to comment

PaulCrewe Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 Indiana’s offensive staff is licking their chops after seeing how undisciplined this defense is against RPO looks Rutgers staff is kicking their chops seeing power running game can get easy YAC and play action off that will be there all day due to hero ball by the secondary OSU, who everyone was eying is just laughing As I’ve said all summer EJ should be RB1 Mazzccua needs to play no matter who he pissed off, since he’s the only OLine guy that actually plays pissed off and with a fire Satt, even after calling great drives, will always out coaches himself The hype hopefully was beaten the hell out of this team tonight 3 Quote Link to comment

Vince R. Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 You also can't kick a FG there. Put the ball in your best players' hands and take that chance on 4th and 3. 2 1 Quote Link to comment

Red Five Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 You can’t have an offseason theme of “Chasing 3” and then not have a FG kicker on the roster that can make a 40 yarder. We supposedly have this great NIL war chest and we don’t use it to bring in an experienced kicker. Completely mind boggling. 3 1 Quote Link to comment

That and the challenge is how you lose a game. Our head coach has a habit of these death by inches moments in close games. Quote Link to comment
