Where did this scoring drive come from?

[Zaimejs]

And here comes that feeling again... what is that called? Hope? Why do they torture us?

[CheeseHusker]

Some urgency, for once.

I’m a go with dumb kids that where told “good job” when they fail for 3 years. You can’t reach old dogs new tricks. Till the participation trophy kids are gone it will be on the players

People wanted coaching adjustments,  we just saw the coaches do just that

[BoNeyard]

Now if the defense can play smart......the offense has some juice again.

Hope only comes with a 3 and out followed by another TD.

I don't know what to think about the OL coach. Our OL has been terrible for a few years. Is that coaching, or just lack of talent?

how do we stack up size wise? I have meant to research this but hadn't done it.

After 3 seasons of the most gawd awful football i've seen with Nebraska under Riley, I know Frost can actually get it done.

Probably not.  But they should be showing progress?

 

We are. If compare the first 4 games of this year to the last 4 of last year.

I honestly think having a 3-man line is becoming an issue. You need an top notch pass rusher if your gonna run 3-4. That currently doesn't exist on this team.

At least in a 4 down lineman set, the two DE's are typically built to rush the passer.

I was hoping to see a lot more versatility this season.  Especially with his comments about depth on the DL, not really a 3-4, very flexible.  Can bring in 3 DT’s, have to guys move up to show a 5 man front etc....  none of that...
