HuskerfaninOkieland Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 We finally fought our other starting corner go lil bro Big bro, if you talk to him, tell him that was a hell of a play. Tell him to take the other CB spot and not look back. Make that a double for me! Quote Link to comment
flatwaterfan Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 I love the diamond plays. I love the fact that our OL won the 4th quarter. Rex ran hard Tmart did a good job hitting the outlet. SJB has a future on D and the future is now. David is a stud. Oh wait, we already knew that. Enjoy a historic win. First b1g home came, biggest comeback and first home game against OSU.

The Duke Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 What did we learn? We learned that Bo doesn't mind the press when they are actually acting like professional journalists. When they are not, he will call a spade a spade, and that is EXACTLY what he did to Dirk Chatelain. We also learned that the rest of the Nebraska media doesn't like Dirk Chatelain either. How do we know this? By the way they all clapped in approval of Bo to the way he BBQ'd Chatelain in front of his colleagues. That was the most unreal press conference I have ever seen. 1 Quote Link to comment
southernoregonhusker Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 We finally found a QB that makes our defense look good. If Miller didn't get hurt, we're all crying in our beer(s)... this might be true, but our 'd' was turning it around. he got injured on a sack, after all. No he did not. He got injured trying to cut up field. Quote Link to comment

He got injured trying to cut up field. Miller would have made it harder for us to come back, but the game turned when he was in there - when Lavonte took the ball right out of his hands.

Treand3 Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 I wish Taylor would have found Green on the wheel route but luckily it worked out with Enunwa. Just nit-picking much props to Taylor. Quote Link to comment
chamrocck Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Largest comeback in school history! Our offense is getting better...it was not their fault we got down in a big hole. Tmart is making better decisions. Love the 3 back formations and TMart throwing to Rex. Enunwa and Bell are good WR's. So is Turner although his biggest role tonight was as decoy as OSU had to respect his speed on the misdirects and option plays. I am sold for now on SJB at CB. David is the man on defense. Second week in a row we give up cheap points before the half...this is a killer! Manage the game better. Our defense has a lot of holes. D-Line, LB's, secondary...take your pick. Tons of missed tackles. I'll call out the D-Line...we are really slow upfront...both of their QB's had all day to throw...we have to find some creative ways to get in the opponent's backfield and have the speed to get tackles for loss. It looks like this will not happen from our DL personnel so we need to get David, Osborne, EMart, Fonzie, Stafford to get back there. We do this and suddenly our secondary will look better. IMO this defense has to be built on sacks, hitting the QB, tackles for loss, and CB's bumping WR's...we must have a physical defense and we have not shown it...how many times does the opponent hit our defense and still get like 3 extra yards? David is the only one can consistently stop the ball carrier or push him back. Glad we have a bye as there is a lot to fix still. This game is meltdown hell for the loser. The fact we came back from so far down may mean that Fickell never recovers. To me he seems like a decent guy and looks like a tall Adam Sandler. But unless he surprises Wisconsin or Michigan this year, this may be the beginning of the end for him. P.S. Quote Link to comment
irishhusker Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Rex is the man, T had his best game, D sucks bad and scares me bigtime. If Bmiller does'nt get knocked out we get rolled. Thanks Fisher, I think alot of people are forgetting that little tidbit. Fishers only highlight of the year, getting chopped right into the play.lol Quote Link to comment
The Duke Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 We also learned that mobile QB's and QB's who roll out of the pocket are still giving this defense and the Pelini brothers fits. They have to find a way to correct this...soon. Quote Link to comment
Treand3 Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Love the diamond formation also, surprised Beck didn't run plays out it vs Wisky. Quote Link to comment
The Duke Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Largest comeback in school history! Love the 3 back formations I loved this formation too! It looked like a hybrid formation between the Pistol and the Flexbone. Whatever it was, it worked very well, and needs to stay in the playbook. Quote Link to comment
Joe_5700 Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 1) SJB could be a really good corner in the future. Kind of reminds me of Fonzie. 2) Huge confidence builder for both the offense and defense. I think we start to see some more consistent defensive play. Problems still are there though. 3) Beck is getting better as a play caller - compare the first and second halves... night and day. I think the diamond formation play action really opened everything else up. 4) Lavonte David, Rex Burkhead - straight up winners. refuse to lose. 5) We got heart. 6) Cassidy has got to go... 7) Too many negatives to list in the 1st half of the game. If you want a lesson on how to be the worst possible team we can be, look at that half. No mention of the QB???... Quote Link to comment
gbr93 Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 I learned that the next time I come home from college to watch a game that i will be watching it in the basement. I watched the first half and most of the third in our upstairs living room and was speechless! I jokingly told my dad that i give up and that i was gonna go downstairs and the very next play was Lavonte's strip. So, i will therefore accept all credit for this comeback and remember to watch all games in the man's den for the rest of my life! Quote Link to comment
akita Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Taht me and my 3 year old son bonded tonight. He did not want ot go to bed and I forced him to watch the 2nd half with me. we both had big man juices. Me Bud light. Him a sippy cup full of organic leamonade. We had the cooler in front of us with cup holders. My son even made my wife put on a red shirt. High fives and chants of go big red were going on. Then one time I yelled "C'mon Martinez!" I scared him. After he figured out I wasn't mad. That little man became a HUSKER TONIGHT. THAT IS WHAT I LEARNED. Because from that game I still have no idea what team they have. Except dysfunctional. 2 Quote Link to comment
huskerjack23 Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Did anybody else notice the 3-4 being run in the first quarter? I was liking it but those holes for the QB to scramble were still there. Quote Link to comment
