Thanks_Tom RR Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 The Blackshirts are ball aware...great to see. The Huskers can run against the #1 run defense when they need to to win a game. Nebraska can win a textbook Big Ten-style game. Martinez played an intelligent game. He threw a lot of balls away. Made his stats look bad but let Nebraska win the game. 3 Quote Link to comment

Guy Chamberlin Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 I haven't been second-guessing Frost much, but I don't know why he never used the QB draw, which seemed there for the taking a lot of the game. But if I'm an MSU fan, I'm really second-guessing Mike Dantoini, who went away from what MSU does well and what Nebraska specifically has trouble with. If you were a football fan without skin in the game, it wasn't a great game to watch. But for some reason on a cold November day with this team at 3-7 and just starting to trend up, it feels really good. Especially good that the defense got the credit. I hope Lincoln is celebrating well today. Quote Link to comment

It was a joy to witness. Safe to say the culture has officially changed. No looking back, boys. Things are getting better 2 Quote Link to comment
Scarlet Overkill Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 I learned that 4 wins in 2017 leads to dismal feelings while 4 wins in 2018 make the future look bright as can be. 3 2 Quote Link to comment
Norhusker Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Refs were terrible on several play calls. Sometimes on both sides, but mostly us. I think it pays to boo loudly. Cultural improvements are obvious. I don't think the commentators ever called Adrian Martinez Taylor Martinez. I miss JD Spielman Our chances of beating Iowa improve. Winning ugly matters. 1 Quote Link to comment

They don't get out of position very often. 1 Quote Link to comment
Comish Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 totally agree, I believe they ran that quarterback draw three times on third-and-long with success every time... then went away from it...?? Quote Link to comment

Pedro G Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 The most important thing is the improvement during the latter part of the season — something we haven’t seen in quite awhile. Beat the Hawks! Quote Link to comment
