If you think you have to put in Carnes, you must also think you need 5 new O-linemen. That was a totally pathetic effort this series, to cap off a very uneven, mostly poor game by them.

Not sure why Taylor is still in the game. Get him out of there and put Carnes in, Pelini.

 

I was thinking the same thing. The line looked more and more porous and he was starting to take some hits back there.

Another season when we end the year unranked.. Not going to start a fire Bo thread but Im not going to dissagree with starting one

Holiday Bowl 2.0

Bo need to check his ego at the door and figure out what the hell he needs on his coaching staff to get these players to listen and do what they are supposed to do. He needs to stop this crap hiring of friends and moving these guys with zero experience as a DC/OC and find someone that has a proven track record. Currently this team lacks any heart at all other that a very select few players. The O Line is the first to be revamped, Cotton needs to be shown the door, HE SUCKS. Find a coach that can coach his players and teach them how to play this game because Cotton simply has not gotten it done, take for instance 3 sacks in a row on this last series. We need a Qb that can manage the game, one that can throw reliably when we need him to and Receivers that can catch the god damn ball with consistency.

 

As it stands, this team sucks and this game is beyond embarrassing.

It's gonna be a long offseason.

SEC Thugball, at it's finest

I put most of this poor second half performance on two areas Tim Beck & Barney Cotton.

 

1) Tim Beck because you know your defense is starting to struggle stopping the deep ball, so help your defense out by running it more on first down and working that clock.

 

2) Barney Cotton because....opps another penalty by an offensive lineman.......oh there's another.

What about Garrison? He coaches the O-line too. Or is it easier to just blame it on Cotton?

 

Or Stai.

 

But nahhhh.....when it's bad news it's due to Cotton. When it's good news it's Garrison & Stai. Just how it works around here.

Yay another dissapointing loss

[Foppa]

Way to put the hurt on that c$%k Stafford

 

Classy. Same mentality as the team on the field.

[adc7236]

I can't believe the second half meltdown.

[walksalone]

might as well have been 300 - 13

[HuskerInLostWages]

Glad I didn't get too pumped up for this one.

 

Why doesn't this program ever maintain composure and put up a fight anymore?

 

Too many melt downs, no leadership, and no accountability.

QFT x 1000

I know some of you will jump to Bo's defense (and no, I am not calling for his head, simply leveling a criticism that is IMO, very fair) on the Taylor thing and find some reason to say why he should still be in there, but this has happened time and time and time again.

 

Enough with this handling of Carnes' PT.

[Animal_Mother]

Started pretty good but was definitely a deflated finish. Call in show should be interesting.
