Interesting all the people saying a defense on pace to give up 500 yards is playing great

Points allowed > Yards allowed.

This defense needs confidence right now. Preserving goose eggs will provide it.

Literally ANY competent team would have points on us right now (2 missed field goals and a failure to convert 4and1). I'm sick of the moral victories, it's what turns into blowouts against good teams. And those are coming.

 

I never thought I'd see Nebraska get shutout for a quarter by the incompetent Illinois defense. But hey... we're up 7-0 so we're gonna win the west now!

I bet you also never thought that you would need to see a play of the year type play by Ameer last year for us to survive McNeese State either. I have an honest question for you, what is your purpose on here other than to nit pick and complain about everything right now? Is is because Bo is gone? You don't like Riley? A combo of both? I am not saying that everyone should be kool aid drinkers because no player or coach (to include TO for two piss poor HC hires) should be above criticism, but when you complain about the new staff failing in four plus games to get better results than the staff that recruited these players did, it makes you look like a scored lover and you lose all credibility. NOt that you seem to care, but whatever.
But sunshine pumpers I ask you this. If Bo was coach, would you be defending this team's performance the way you do with Riley. Be honest.
That's kind of the whole point man. It's a little difficult to take a team of guys brought in to play spread and teach them a pro-style offense. Likewise, a defense used to matchup bracket pass D learning to play run first D and quarters coverage I'm the back end AND learn how to tackle is a little bit much to chew off by the first game of conference play.

But Husker fans and patience never did get along...

What does conference play have to do with it ??? Illinois is bad team. No excuse for this.

This guy coaches like Pinkle from Mizzou. Mind boggling

Pinkle has actually won a division and played in a championship game, though.

 

 

Yeah, but that was in a weaksauce conference.

 

And Jesus TFing Christ, that was f*****g stupid by our defense for not paying attention.
