B.B. Hemingway Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 7-5 is probably the ceiling, unfortunately. I just want to see improved play. Look competent for more than a couple plays in a row. Win a game you're not supposed too 2 Quote Link to comment
Jack Burton Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Frost needs to look in the mirror over the bye week. His whole operation is mediocre. His mentor, Chip Kelly, is a f#&%ing disaster at UCLA. Coach like Tom not like Chip. 3 Quote Link to comment
lo country Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 I don't see any obvious wins left on the schedule. Optimistically I'm looking at Purdue and Indy......Getting bowl eligible would be a gift. Sad that we've fallen this far that we are hoping to get to 6 wins.. Honestly, I have no answers....Yes the OL play is horrible, BUT Frost has shown no ability to play call around a crappy OL ie draws, traps, counters, quick outs and slants. we've only seen the shuffle pass once....Roll the pocket, use that I=formation etc.....Frost has also hitched his wagon to a TE converted to center and moved a decnt guard outside to a crappy tackle.....That's coaching. No fear of failure gets the "no fear of getting benched". We have one of the highest recruit rankings in the B1G and defnitely in the West. but where is the evidence of this.... IMHO, we have back wards. Some position groups with no development. Walters and Austin come to mind... No way are the kids on this team that bad. I'm not buying that. 4 2 1 Quote Link to comment

Obviously, this team has a lot of issues. It will be tough getting to 6 wins. PJ looks a lot better in his second year in the Big 10 compared to Frost. They ummmm...pulled Vedral for Bunch... Vedral ended up with less than 200 yards of offense and no TDs... 1 Quote Link to comment

huskerfan74 Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Based on the way this team is performing, we are going to lose to Purdue, Iowa, and Wisconsin and we may have a chance to beat Indiana and Maryland. I believe we finish the season 6-6 and get invited to the toilet bowl. If by any chance we actually finish 7-5, I would be impressed. Unfortunately, Frost has lost this team. The fact that this team consistently underachieves and continues to play horrible undisciplined football is a sign that Frost and his coaches are clueless as to what is needed to fix this mess. Frost needs to assess his coaching staff and he needs to have the stones to fire some coaches and hire new ones. His play calling is also lacking and whatever he is calling might have worked at Oregon but it ain’t working in the BIG. 1 3 Quote Link to comment

Why have a slow sure handed receiver that runs good routes and hs a knack for getting open when you can have a burner that well, doesn't so any of that....Not to mention blocks great. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

7071949597 Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 One telling thing to me was that during garbage time, we had backups in (including Bunch and Belt) at the skill positions but we still had the starting offensive line in. That seems telling to me. I think our offensive line has been a weak link all season long. Don't know how you fix that mid-season but its a huge problem. Quote Link to comment

Vedral ended up with less than 200 yards of offense and no TDs... He got hurt in his last drive and they wanted to play it safe. They scored on his last drive. He wasn't the problem and had some nice throws and runs. 3 1 Quote Link to comment

Frost has to have some bad guys on the staff that the players are afraid of. Osborne had his henchmen to get results. Quote Link to comment
