Husker24Fan Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 that players and coaches have said that goes, "we're the best 1-2 football team in the country!"? Well, it pains me to say it, but I think we're the worst 3-0 team in the country. Undefeated and not ONE single vote tells you something. I'm a Husker grad and fan thru and thru...but if we're supposed to get better as the season goes on, we're not getting it done. Like Danielson said yesterday, "a high school team would be embarrassed by this". Quote Link to comment
DaveH Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Yup, there's no doubt that the offense needs to step it up if we want to win games. Quote Link to comment
Hunter94 Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 wonder if we will see any changes during the 2 week bye? thoughts? hunter Quote Link to comment
TheKiD Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 God, I hope so. But, I'm not sure what we're going to improve. I think that BC will grill them about the penalties.. and I don't think we'll have many against Iowa St. That being said, hopefully then we can get some good drives together and not kill ourselves with penalties. I really wish that we'd get some improvement from the OL. But, I'm not sure that's possible. This team has suprised me in a few instances, lets hope the OL makes it their life's mission to be a good OL these next two weeks and comes out amazin' against Iowa St. Quote Link to comment
gamecocks Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 I think that we should let Helming or Murtha get a few more reps on the O-line. It certainly can't hurt anything, can it? Quote Link to comment
IlliniHusker Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Worst 3-0 team in the country? As long as the Blackshirts continue to play like the glory days, we are probably not the worst. The defense is the only thing consistant on this team. COSGROVE FOR GOVERNOR! Offense is ssooooooo frustrating. Against Maine the excuse was first game jitters. all the new players and Cory Ross had the worst game of his career. Turnover were a problem, but at least no penalties and Franz Hardy looked promising. Against WF the excuse was the OL and collapse of the running game. Passing disappointed and punt / KO returns disappeared. Against Pitt, Cory Ross returned to old form and punt / KO returns looked great. Now the excuse is 11 penalties, at least 3 stalled drives that started to look promising. Passing totals got worse, Franz H has almost vanished and 2 missed FGs! Quote Link to comment
DJR313 Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 COSGROVE FOR GOVERNOR! Ok, can anyone imagine someone saying this after last season? This guy has been pushing the right buttons so far(except for the damn prevent D on the last Pitt drive ). Quote Link to comment
HSKRNOKC Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Yep that 26 yard pass to our 38 on there final drive about got us. Quote Link to comment
DaveH Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 If we cut out the drive killing penalties on the offense, I think we can get in the endzone a couple more times on Saturday. After watching some of the plays over again, I was really impressed with Cody's run's. He is defintely a weapon that'd I'd like to count on : Quote Link to comment
HSKRNOKC Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 I agree Dave. We have been missing the power runner on short yard situations. It looks like Glenn thrives on that situation. Quote Link to comment
NUpolo8 Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 If the offense finds it within itself to get into the endzone 3 times. WIth this defense that might be enough more often then not. Quote Link to comment
