billdozer15 Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 I am curious what everyone else thinks. I am thinking maybe the offense has been down since taking some pretty heartbreaking losses. Vtech was brutal and even worse to be followed by the TTech game and the meltdown agianst ISU. I am thinking maybe things just started to snowball agianst the O and with injury after injury, especially after Helu and Burkhead both went down. Now it appears Roy is close to 100% and if not he is playing through it pretty well. I hope the big win over OU will get things jump started and maybe this O can get rolling for the rest of the season. I still am skeptical, but hopeful. Quote Link to comment
HuskerfaninOkieland Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 At the very least, it hopefully gives the O a little more confidence. Quote Link to comment

clone Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Could the OU win jumpstart this team?? uh... yup. sure could. Quote Link to comment
Captain K Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 No. All the electricity OPPD can gather couldn't jump start our O. Our offense is soft. Their leader is afraid of being hit. In addition, we try so hard to be "multiple" that we never get in a groove. We need to try and run the ball and throw, mostly out of play action, when necessary or the D is vulnerable to it. It is obvious Lee will never pick apart a secondary at will, so why do we even attempt to run all of this garbage we are incapable of. Quote Link to comment
Cornhuskers Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 The biggest jumpstart that would help this team would be a permanent change at QB. A lot of people seem to make excuses for the shortcomings of Zac Lee; however the truth must be faced sooner or later. That truth is the fact that Zac Lee is not a quality QB. Cody Green is better than Zac Lee but we need another quality passing QB like Joe Ganz. This is where the fix to our offense will start. Quote Link to comment
EbylHusker Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I still think they will find themselves to some extent before the season is over. I don't think it'll have anything to do with OU. On a sidenote, it's good to see the rabid Lee basher in here, no doubt doing his thing. Quote Link to comment

Also, Cornhuskers, you could save yourself a lot of wasted time by not typing any text. We all know what you are going to say already. Just hit fast reply and add reply. We'll figure out the rest.

EbylHusker Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 lol, good to see my prediction held up. Sometimes I wish if you ignored someone their entire post would just never show up. No placeholder or anything...you'd never know they even posted. Quote Link to comment
BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Sure. The snowball will roll through November!! Quote Link to comment
Hunter94 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 yeah, the whole damn country is living on a leader with hope, so a little hope for the offense couldn't hurt. Quote Link to comment

Hopefully changes will be made to change that. I think both TO & Bo know a change needs to be made. Just imagine the vicious blackshirts and a "real" offense.......we're back!! Quote Link to comment
