The Dude Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 I just didn't expect Frost's offense to be so bad in year 2. I don't think any of us did. 2 Quote Link to comment

I'm happy we held them about the same as those other solid D's and got the win against a team thats good at making it ugly. Our defense did what they needed to. Yep. There are positives to take from this win when you dig deeper. 1 Quote Link to comment
10_point_buck Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 Funny how Sipple comes out now flaming Riley, easy to do when he is not the coach. My question is, where is this tough stance when he was here coaching? Sipple and all the rest of the media lobbed cupcakes at him. Quote Link to comment
CapoValley Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 The fact that Sipple is still employed and well paid with his poor effort and checkered past in a town with a journalism school pumping out plenty of qualified people pretty much sums up the state of Nebraska’s sad media 3 1 Quote Link to comment

macroboy Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 I'm really tied of all the new people derailing threads. This is about Sipple being in strip clubs, not Northwestern 1 4 Quote Link to comment

(Tons of people questioning the progress of Adrian Martinez and Jurgens, two people hand picked by Scott Frost) Sipple: “Ah, But you see, Mike Riley” It’s just lazy, hack writing that leads to toxicity. 1 Quote Link to comment
hskrpwr13 Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 I'm kind of in both camps. I doubt many wins this year will look impressive either by final score or opponent, but I'll gladly take said wins. Bowl game would be great. 2 Quote Link to comment

I started the season believing the hype we'd look better. Never really thought winning the West. We had back to back 4-8 seasons.... At this point, I want to go bowling. I can see us going 7-5 or 8-4 overall. Really don't see us beating Wisky or Iowa at this point. The remaining 4 are not gimmes either..... Quote Link to comment

And it couldn't be more accurate. Mike Riley was a godawful recruiter, coach and leader of the Husker football program. Godawful might be a lenient term. 1 Quote Link to comment
NebraskaHarry Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 I know people want to criticize Martinez and some of it is warranted. But not all of it. Nebraska's offensive line play is pretty bad... just really poor... that really needs to be emphasized and a huge part of that is because of Mike Riley's mismanagement of recruiting and developing this position group. My hope is Frost emphasizes this group as a #1 priority. I think he has we the recruits he's brought in these last year and currently this year. But they're young obviously. I fully expect to see improvement in o-line play over the next couple years with progressively getting better each year. It will be a huge disappointment if I don't. 1 Quote Link to comment

Mike Riley was by no means a success here, but I guess I’d like you to tell me why he’s behind the two biggest problems on this team, Adrian Martinez, his regression and the errant snaps. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
Jack Burton Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 I tend to agree overall with Sip here, but is it too much to ask to sort out the center snapping issues 6 games into the season? And the dumb penalties. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
