gobiggergoredder Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 1 minute ago, ColoradoHusk said: I agree that the play was very sloppy today, and that falls on coaching. So does having the team be ready to play from the opening kickoff. I predicted to Teach that Oregon would get the ball first, score quickly, get a 3 and out, and then score again. NU made it worse with that interception on the first play. Yes, it was a good pass to Morgan, and it was a fluke bounce off his helmet into the defender. But, it's still an example of sloppy play and not being ready from the opening kickoff. This play pissed me off for another reason.....yeah it hit his mask, but.... why throw row into man we help over the top? I thought that was done with TA. i don't think Morgan even saw it cause that dude was in his grill. Quote Link to comment
C-4 Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Stoltenberg and Gifford are monsters. Mo Barry will be nice to have as a thumper in B1G play. Lee and Stanley can be special at times, but are inconsistent as of now. 1 Quote Link to comment
ColoradoHusk Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Are we sure that Lamar Jackson is a good CB? The dude has struggled ever since he became a Husker. 1 Quote Link to comment
gobiggergoredder Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 One thing I forgot.... Why are we wasting a RB via play action when we're clearly in a passing situation? This happened over and over. it neutralizes him as a blocker. 1 Quote Link to comment

Bball1091 Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Still waiting on how a "sequential mess" is an excuse when you 6 days to game plan for the offense that creates such mess...I mean I like the guy but come on that only falls on one person... 1 Quote Link to comment

Oddly enough it's tough to try to play a position at the Power 5 level in college if you never played it in high school. 1 Quote Link to comment

I totally forgot that Jackson played safety in high school. Someone said that NU has a CB playing safety and a safety playing CB, but I couldn't remember who the "safety playing CB" was referring to.

Defenses that put quick pressure on a QB essentially shorten the field even less then when defending the red zone. The QB does not have time to throw it more than 10-15 yards. This allows the secondary to play very aggressive and is also a good opportunity to make an int. I didn't watch our game today but it's something I learned by watching well coached teams.

Nebhawk Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Really dudes, Oregon didn't come out for blood in the 2nd half. You can't base anything off of that half of football! Tanner Lee is Tanner Lee. He didn't come here highly touted. He isn't a blue chip recruit. How many times will this program take a transfer QB and think that this is the answer. Keller, Taylor, Lee, ETC. Why are we not trusting our recruiting just a little bit? POB, Gebbia ? If this season is a building season, lets build around a freshmen! 3-4 defense if you have the talent is a decent defense to run, but against speed and talent, your still out matched. The issue is we don't get enough push up front unless we blitz, and once we commit to a blitz, they have us with numbers. 4 Quote Link to comment
CharBroiled Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 1. This scheme is not working. At all. They are not flying to the ball, they are not even looking for the ball. 84 tackles, ZERO sacks and only 3 TFL. There is no pressure being generated up front. 2. Diaco will not make a first half adjustment and will stick in his "vanilla" defense even if a LB continues to be matched up with a slot receiver who continuously blows past the defender. 3. Too much thinking. Not enough going to make a football play. 4. Langsdorf is in love with play action even when the defense knows the pass is coming, i.e. late in the game down by 7 clock running. He wants to sling it all around the yard. 5. Too many times this offense resembles Bill Callahan's disaster. 6. Lee can have nice touch but the lack of mobility when things break down is frightening. 7. The team has some heart, but it's hard to measure when Oregon went into cruise control. I think Oregon could have hung 70 on this D if the Ducks wanted to. Only throwing 8 times in the second half might be testament to the cruise control. 8. I fear the coaching staff tries to measure moral victories and is snakebitten. 3 Quote Link to comment
