What we learned today...

[walksalone]

A) Beck trying to run a "sped" up offense needs to slow down.

B) Apparently it's almost physically impossible for Pap to send more than 4 guys

C) For the first two quarters, it was almost physically impossible for Beck to run guys up the gut

D) We are continuing the trend of not being a "1st Half" team

E) Whenever Smith handed the ball off, our LB's disappeared

F) The RB's were the best performers for the game

G) Beck needs to realize that throwing the ball is not wise when trying to kill the clock and preserve the lead

I don't know what to say anymore. I feel like we can go ahead and just replay the last five years of conversation on this board and it might all still fit the situation. Sad.

 

It's just one game. A lot of new faces. Smith is playing out of his mind. We look terrible. I hope it gets better.

I don't think I learned anything. Nothing's changed. It's the Bo Pelini era. Brace yourself.

H) our coaching staff, Pap and Beck especially, almost cost us this game...

[HuskerfaninOkieland]

I don't know what to think

[The Snork]

Special teams look good. Kicking great (missed extra point aside)

[streckdog]

Defense needs to learn how to hold their own...fast.

[The Snork]

Offense looks good (when they're allowed to play Nebraska football).

[tschu]

Now we know why Bo closed the practices to the media and former players.

[Mars]

The defense is great. They only gave up 602 yards this time.

[lo country]

We only send 4.

Any offensive player in motion immediately gets lost.

Our staff, for all of the internet abuse probably deserve it.

 

I am watching Clemson with a solid DC and OC (highest paid in college) getting it done...................

[huskerfan92]

1)Our defense is worse than last year

 

2) The Wyoming fans weren't kidding, Brett Smith is a MAN

 

3) If Taylor's shoulder doesn't heal we are toast

 

4) I'm excited for Newby

[streckdog]

Newby could be our future.

Sat. Sep. 14 is only two weeks from now and it's gonna be ugly.

Offense

-Our Skilled positions are rediculous

 

Defense

-The problems are not the lack of speed propaganda we've be sold. We have people that can make plays

-There isn't a DB in the country that can cover when with no pass rush.

-I don't get Bo's Defensive Scheme.

• Only send 4.
  
• Throw 1-2 LB our there to cover the entire field.
  
• 6-7 DB's run around for 10 seconds trying to cover like it's back yard football.
  

General Observations

-Coaches don't seem to be able to adjust. Example (Wyoming Punting Game). The obviously had a plan that the punter was going to hang on to the ball as long as he could before he punted. It killed field position. They did it over and over and over again.
