Maybe something funny happened to Luke on the field, or maybe Luke said something funny to Scott. I am sure Frost wasn't happy with the result against Ohio State, but there were some good things which happened on Saturday. Football is a sport, and it's supposed to be fun. Yes, I know losing by 30+ points isn't very fun, but I'm not gonna b!^@h and moan that Frost isn't a grumpy gus on the sidelines of a blowout loss. He did plenty of that his first 2 years at NU. 3 3 Quote Link to comment

Undone Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 When I see Frost's demeanor in the post-game interviews after a big loss, he can't even really look up towards the press. He looks so mad and ashamed, like he can just barely take it. So I think I'm going to have to disagree that he's not taking anything seriously; he strikes me as the kind of guy that it doesn't matter what you're playing - it could be tiddly winks or checkers - he wants to beat you. Sometimes humor is just a way to cope with stuff when things are going wrong. The sideline thing is a non-issue. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Huskers93-97 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 To the original question. What did we learn. Our Trenches are definitely headed in the right direction and appear to be adequate to have success against anyone in the country if you can hold up to Ohio State. We do not have the overall skill players, speed or depth to keep up with a top tier team like Ohio State for 4 quarters. The margin for error is small. We need to keep recruiting better, keep those players on the roster and develop them so we can get them on the field. Instead of rolling out former walk-ons to catch passes. Talent can make a lot of schemes look good. I am not sold on Chinander. BUT, if we had better talent I think some of the clunky feeling with our Offense and Defense would go away. If Frost and Chinander had the talent of Ohio State I am sure we would be thinking they are great coaches. 2 Quote Link to comment
BaytownHusker Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Change #7 to RB. Create the LMC magic CMC had in college. LMC with 20-25 touches a game could be magical. Keep him on the field 90 % of the times so that when you do bring him out its not a " hey look 7 is on the field situation". Quote Link to comment

Not a terrible idea, but I think the thought is two fold. 1) AM is injury prone so LMC needs to be the back up QB, 2) LMC isn't the biggest most stout built guy in the world, giving him 20-25 touches a game would probably get him injured 1 Quote Link to comment

We're not pulling a bait and switch, he's doing as much as he can in addition to QB. But once it becomes instead of QB I think we have a broken promise. Quote Link to comment

He wants to play QB and we need a competent #2. We finally have that for if 2AM goes down and someone wants that #2 to be switched to another position. We also actually have good RBs on the team. We don't need to be moving such an important player to another position to RB. 5 Quote Link to comment

Maybe run that by LMC first There's this thing called the transfer portal nowadays. It's pretty popular with players who don't get what they want. 1 Quote Link to comment

I understand you're not trying to draw an equivalence between Nebraska and Penn State, but you make a point that I also thought of - and that's that we are possibly trending in the right direction. Now we just need to keep building on that and keep getting better. "Day by day," as the saying goes. 2 1 Quote Link to comment

I think the relationship between Frost and McCaffrey is solid enough we'll never have to worry about a broken promise. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
