I always thought let Riley go out in "retirement", you know the feel good way to go out, but given his complete non emotion "oh shucks, let me just chew my gum" body language on the sidelines when we are losing and the Nebraska football program is literally drowning in his hands, I say screw it, fire him and let it be known this type of performance is completely unacceptable.

 

Agreed. It’d be nice if our program had some sort of pulse, or cajones. 

[Michiganball]

It's sort of for the best, would rather there was no doubt on where this coaching thing has to go.

Damn....just damn!!! Its simple.....blocking and tackling. We cant do either!! Its not hard. Technique terrible. Please lord let us get someone....anybody....who can right this ship. Best fans, facilities.....ever! Nope, cant win. Why? We got andy griffith on the sidelines. Damn that!

[BoNeyard]

The dude is going to end up with 2 losing seasons in 3 years at Nebraska.

 

Everyone joked he was a .500 coach, his record at Nebraska is literally 19-18 and he MAY get a win vs Minnesota and obvious losses to Penn State and Iowa, ending his career at Nebraska at 20-20.

[PaulCrewe]

MIke bumbling at the podium.  

 

The screen was called because cause they had recently “hit a couple”.  Where the f#*k was I when these were hit.

 

then followed up by saying it probably was a bad call.  Way to stick to your guns and ride the horse you picked

Who are you going to be the interim coach? Langsdorf? Mr. throw the fade instead of working the clock in regulation? or Fiasco-Mr Rush 3? there is not a good choice.

No, we lost AT Oregon, not at home.

Hmmmm.  NIU, wisky, OSU and NW. That's 4 losses at home.

UCF game starts soon?

Have to say, I've been looking forward to that one almost as much as the Husker game.

 

[NebraskaHarry]

I wanted Nebraska to win that game. I really did. Pisses me off they didn't, but we need to get Riley out of here before he does more damage. This leaves zero doubt about what needs to be done.

Parrella. Someone who really has zero ties to this sub par staff that came from Corvallis.

We haven't hit a screen in 2.5 f@@@$ ng years....

[TonyStalloni]

This game was lost when we held the ball and drove the length of the field and only got a FG to tie it.  That needed to be a TD.  The D was getting stops at that point.

I don’t think they will fire Riley mid season, but if they did Parella is the best choice. 

[Nebhawk]

I don't think we have the worst QB in the West, that might go to Thorsen.  But he did lead his team to a win.  Bad coaching on both sidelines.

 

I don't think that we outplayed them at all.  I think Thorsen kept us in the game and we did not take advantage of all his mistakes.

I would be very OK with that. He would at least instill some toughness and hopefully get them to play with some attitude.
