corncraze Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 I thought he was suppose to start today! Apparently twitter says he's hurt? Quote Link to comment
BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Yes the announcers said at the beginning of the game that he hurt his knee in practice Quote Link to comment
It'sNotAFakeID Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 He hurt his knee in practice. Unfortunate, but it looked like Green and the safeties stepped up in coverage. All those sacks--coverage sacks. Quote Link to comment
PaulCrewe Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Carl said Andrew started based on practice performance and prep over SJ-B not because of injury after the game Quote Link to comment
corncraze Posted October 29, 2011 Author Share Posted October 29, 2011 Via Huskeronline ***Carl Pelini said Andrew Green got the start at cornerback over Stanley Jean-Baptiste partly because Jean-Baptiste had been dealing with tendonitis in his knee all week, but also because Green had a great week of practice in his own right. "Andrew Green got the start and had an awesome game," Pelini said. "The light bulb came on for Andrew on Wednesday or Thursday of last week. He just looked really good in practice, and on a gut (feeling) we just went with Andrew as our starter, and he showed why. He had a great game, and he's really coming along." Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 I was shocked with Green's play. Shocked in a good way. I didn't think he had it in him. Quote Link to comment
whateveritis1224 Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Evans played decent too until he got hurt. Overall I'd say that this is the defense we were expecting at the beginning of the year. They've got their experience now and in addition to Pelini calling one defensive play for 80% of the game allowed them to just go out and play. Quote Link to comment
jsneb83 Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 And just think. Green, Evans, and Stanley are all sophomores. I think we will be fine at corner for a few years. Quote Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Andrew played great today and I was shocked! I was very happy with the defensive performance today. Quote Link to comment
Branno Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Sorry to resurrect the thread, but I'm wondering if anything has been said about SJB's injury. I'd love to know if he is gonna be back for NWU. Quote Link to comment
simplekin Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Looks like John the Baptist is #1 on the 2 deep tomorrow. Quote Link to comment
BIG ERN Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Its all about the adjustment IMO. We had safeties over the top so all they had to worry about was underneath Quote Link to comment
Branno Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 Looks like John the Baptist is #1 on the 2 deep tomorrow. Sweet. I'm driving up right now from KC and my dad asked me of he woul be playing. I hadn't heard anything all week and it was much easier to ask here then try to look it up using my phone. Thanks for the info and GO BIG RED! Quote Link to comment
RedDenver Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 Looks like John the Baptist is #1 on the 2 deep tomorrow. Where are you seeing this? NU coaches have said it's a game-time decision if SJB or AG will start opposite Dennard. Quote Link to comment
