O-Line

[jamrinelli]

I am very pleased with how our "make Shift" Offensive line played tonight. They did a great job of keeping Armstrong clean on that last drive and opened up some holes for AA. I know some people are not happy with the minimal amount of yards, but they played well enough to win the game with three starters out!!!

You said a mouthful there, buddy. It's like the 2nd string was playing and they came through bigtime. I'm really proud of those guys.

Obviously they weren't dominant, but I can't complain either with the injuries we have had to deal with. And I will say this as far as run blocking goes....A-Rod at RG was a truck.

[Pasadena Husker]

I heard Pellini's remarks during his post game that Sirles's injury is a sprain, similar to Cotton's. any idea when either of these guys will be back in the lineup?

If I remember correctly the term used was "a couple weeks" or something like that.

Moudy - Pensick - Rodriguez was a better interior than I expected. At least, better than Moudy - Pelini - Pensick.

 

And for being inexperienced I thought Sterup came in and did an admirable job. Didn't notice any drop off when he came in.

Another thing we have to remember...Oline was going to be a question next year with Pensick, Long, Sirles, Qvale, A-Rod leaving, but with Moudy, Pelini, and now Sterup getting extra PT it can only help the future.

I did too. I have, in general, been rather disappointed with his play considering the hype that surrounded him when he came to campus, but maybe he's found his niche as a mauler who runs into people and grinds away.

Thought zach sterup played well as well

Lots of adversity, and they found a way. Hats off to them.

I thought Sterup played extremely well. For those who think we don't have depth. Our three best linemen are now out, and I think we still have a serviceable O-Line. We got some good ones who will be available next year. I think things could be looking up for Nebraska in the near and distant future!

Consisering all the injuries, the o-line performed admirably today. I just hope these guys stay healthy and possibly get 1 or 2 back for MSU. I have a feeling that is going to be a whole new challenge. Hopefully they've got another game of answering the call in them. Our o-line will be the most critical element this week.
