Washusker Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 We just got COMPLETELY outcoached in the 1st half. Good Lord. Quote Link to comment
ttheKid1*18 Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 I don't know about outcoached, but the gameplan was way too conservative. They better throw the ball around if they want to win the game. Quote Link to comment
tattooedhusker Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 well bc is in a pickle, we bitch about him not running the ball, and when he runs the ball, we bitch that he doesn't pass it. I can see both sides, and i'm just kind of chill until I see the half time adjustments. you think a 3-4 zone would work? Quote Link to comment

They better throw the ball around if they want to win the game. No, we got outcoached. Very vanilla defense (where are Shanle and Green?), and we pissed away the 1st half trying to establish the run. That holding call on Mueller was a tough one, though. Quote Link to comment
NU fan in Denver Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 We are playing not to lose, not to win. Way to conservative. Throw the damn ball. You cant run 3-4 screen passes. Let's try to win. Over 2 minutes left and we ran the clock out at the end of the half. Not good. lets go. GBR. Quote Link to comment
tattooedhusker Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 i didn't see that personal foul facemask on jones though. and the refs bailed usc out with that delay of game. Quote Link to comment
AR Husker Fan Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 We just got COMPLETELY outcoached in the 1st half. Good Lord. *blink* Outcoached? In what way? The running game is not going as well as it could, but if we don't run it and USC's defense can pin their ears back and come after Taylor knowing every play's going to be a pass...well, I'm not sure Taylor can survive. I suspect that we'll see some passing on first down in the second half. But I think that trying to establish the run in the first half is what will allow more passing to suceed in the second half, it it does. Quote Link to comment
ttheKid1*18 Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 There will be some adjustments in the second half, and I hope they come out fired up. Some stupid plays is why we are down. We can win this, but people need to make plays. Quote Link to comment
Washusker Posted September 17, 2006 Author Share Posted September 17, 2006 Amen, we've thrown the ball downfield TWICE. Once on the fake punt, once on a roll out by ZT to Nunn (Where the primary receiver was running a short out.). And what happened to Purify? I've seen him on the field maybe twice? And Octavien?? And Glenn? I just don't get the playcalling. Quote Link to comment
Pedro Guerrero Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 I think it's funny. If we would have come out throwing people would be complaining about not running more. If you haven't noticed every time Taylor passes he either has someone in his face or his gets knocked down. Quote Link to comment
TrueHuskerFan Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 I don't think we have been outcoached, but I really don't agree with going for a score, especially once it was down under a minute to go. Oh well. We'll see what happens in the second half. The corners need help from the safeties IMO. Quote Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Let me try and calm down here for a second and try to understand what Cally is doing here!!! I know if we establish the run it's going to open up the pass!!!! Their secondary is not good and neither is ours!!! They are taking advantage of it and we are not!!! However; they are getting their run game going and our line and linebackers should be stopping it???? Quote Link to comment
ttheKid1*18 Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 I just wish when they threw it, they would throw it downfield. They keep running these screens, and short routes but they're not working. They need to test the depleted secondary. Quote Link to comment

But I think that trying to establish the run in the first half is what will allow more passing to suceed in the second half, it it does. We at least have to try to throw the ball downfield. We have had some decent field position, and haven't capitalized. 2 minute drill, where is that. USC gets the ball second half. If we don't stop them, the game is over. Pick it up. Try to win.

No, the problem is he runs when we face a team that is questionable or weak against the pass (today, or OU in 04) and passes when we should pound the rock (ISU 04). At least he is trying to shorten the game. Give him credit for that. Quote Link to comment
