The way this game is going, we might score 70 points and still lose. Calling this defense Blackshirts is pretty absurd.

Call them whatever you like......

I like how people are criticizing chin but not saying how they would change it.  The armchair defensive coordinators who think they know football when they know very little. C'mon chin haters, how would you change it?  Instead of bitching why don't you explain it?  We don't have talent on defense but apparently everyone thinks they can just make talent out of thin air.

Washington looks hurt. Very gimpy on that run.

It wasn't just as bad. 2nd most turnovers gained in FBS is a pretty solid accomplishment and we would be very very good if we could accomplish that here.

Ooo turnovers. Id rather hold a team under 250yds a game to start

That's at least the 2nd time he got up limping today.

He seemed banged up after that long run.  The cold and injury and he could be pretty tight right now

[NebraskaHarry]

Washington needs to toughen up.

Maybe get a more athletic linebacker or domann to spy on Bush. Average passer, good runner. Our O-line isn’t that talented and they competed well against OSU last week. Coaching does help.

I'd never thought I'd see the day when this team would rack up such an insane amount of yardage in the first quarter.  I love a good shootout!

What coordinator DOESN'T rely on good athletes?

You need to be able to call the right plays and see the big picture...chinander can’t do that...he gets saved by the play that some excellent athletes do. In other words, te athletes make him look like a better play caller than he really is. I am sure you have some smart comment on this as well.

[Hayseed]

Good call against Foster
