Last Night

[PaulCrewe]

Well after a night of fuming about the officiating and sleeping the alcohol off, I watched this thing again as most of you did or attempted to as well. My biggest glaring issue was NU's offensive line straight got it's ass whooped the majority of the game. Constantly there were two or three Aggies in the backfield, and they also destroyed the pocket of passing plays when they only brought three or four. Inability to pick up and designate blitzes(part of this goes on the QB), stupid penalties, and missed blocks continue to plague this unit.

A key example, the play where Taylor gets hurt. Caputo is just blown up off the snap and put on his backside three yards deep in the back field right onto Taylor.(Sidenote the Aggie that did this was Eddie Brown, former Husker commit, how nice would it have been to have him bringing depth to the interior DLine)

Many of Rex and Roy's better runs on the night involved them making an Aggie miss at or near the line.

Maybe a lot of this has to fo with teams being able to easily prep for the three or four running plays Wats calls every week, but some has to do with the OLine still not being as good as we were all led to believe they were.
