MyBloodIsRed16 Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 I want to see a dog run on the field. You always see cats running around in stadiums, not dogs. Quote Link to comment

huskered17 Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 I want to see the real Lee we hear about in practice, not the one we heard about at Tulane. I want to see the real defense we have and hope it's not what we have seen so far. The posters that say Diaco is holding back till conference starts, I hope their right... GBR!!!

VectorVictor Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 I expect our D to penetrate the opposition repeatedly, to stiffen when the need arises, and for it to intimidate people watching. What will most likely happen is that our D will limp into action, remain flaccid for too long, and finally toughen up at the end, only to blow its momentum too soon. Quote Link to comment

TGHusker Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 I want to see a real pass rush --- PLEASSSSE! I want to see DPE and Spielman used more in open space to utilize their speed. Target more than Stanley and get the ball to our speedy guys and let their feet do the talking. Quote Link to comment

I think the cushion that Diaco has them give receivers is 15-18 yards, so we should be good there. --- Seriously, I want to see more nickel/dime packages in obvious passing downs and when/if an offense is prone to passing, especially on first down and/or second/short. More man to man, less zone to rough up/get in the head of receivers more, and more blitzing/stunts out of nickel/dime packages, especially towards the last few minutes of the game. Nothing bothers me more than to see us run prevent to 'keep everything in front of us' and not attack. Someone posted elsewhere (or maybe it was this thread...I can't recall) that Diaco may still be holding stuff back for conference play...and if they're right, it had better pay dividends (like, going to Indy dividends). I don't think he's doing that...but nothing is shocking anymore. Quote Link to comment
gossamorharpy Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 I'd be content simply seeing the defense show up for the game. Seems as if we left them in Lincoln last week and they didn't get the memo the season started 2 weeks ago. Quote Link to comment
