BoMartinezSuh Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 -We had a very predictable gameplan for wyo, and i am sure we will for southern miss as well. We don't want to show anything to UCLA. -Zaire and Afalava did not play. 2 starters that would of made a big difference. I'm sure they'll be back next week. -Our defense is only going to get better every week as the young guys gain experience. -The Wyo game may actually wake our team up, and guys will go harder at practice. -Our running game is one of the best in the country.

The Dude Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 I agree with the last point, Imani Cross is my spirit animal, but the rest is speculation. But I hope it's true! It's hard to imagine things getting much worse! Wait, wasn't that the official HuskerBoard mantra this offseason? Quote Link to comment

308_Husker Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 I would be okay with Beck slowing down the play calling when we come to face UCLA. Keep our offense on the field, grinding yards and the clock and keeping our young, inexperienced defense off the field. We are good enough on offense to do this. If we keep scoring quickly, that only gives our defense a disadvantage by having more chances to fail. IMO Quote Link to comment
JBru92 Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 This is exactly what I'd expect him to do if you watch our game film vs Nevada. It was only 17-13 at the half because Fajardo did a really good job of moving the chains and keeping our offense off the field. It wasn't until we got a few stops that the floodgates opened in the second half. I would be okay with Beck slowing down the play calling when we come to face UCLA.

Blackshirts007 Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 He's got a point. Rewatch the game. Do you know what I saw? Read option, speed option, strong toss, power I, and a few play action pass plays. Over and over and over and over and over again. Quote Link to comment
EZ-E Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 We don't want to show anything to UCLA. Was this our plan last year? Would you rather we expose our whole playbook just so we could crush Wyoming? There were a few things that we really didn't want to show to Wyo that we had to to win the game. No biggie. Id rather practice those things against a team with a dual threat QB than go into UCLA with no game experience using certain things. Quote Link to comment
ZRod Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 There had to be a lot of stuff missing because most of the game Wyo was primed to get burned on PA. 7 and 8 in the box with single high safety, there's no way they could have stopped us vertically if we took a couple shots.
