Popular Post I am I Posted November 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 7, 2020 We’ve had flashes here and there since 2002, but the reality is, we don’t have a good cohesive team and we don’t have very good individual talent. I’m not here just complaining, I’m really just saying that in our 3rd regime in 6 yrs or so, we aren’t good. Not together as a team and no real individual good players or stars it is what it is. Still my team and I’m still a fan, but I have zero expectations of victory or competitive glory 10 Quote Link to comment
NebraskaHarry Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 No doubt. We Kansas. But even Kansas has a more recent accomplishment than us. Nebraska is a flaming pile of dog s***. 2 Quote Link to comment
Farms Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Disagree. I think there is a lot of individual talent but the coaches can’t seem to get things rolling. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Day by Day Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 I don't want to become negative, but for the first time I'm starting to question if Frost is the one to turn it around. I'm gonna try and stay positive, but I feel the negativity creeping in. 6 Quote Link to comment
Popular Post SECHusker Posted November 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 7, 2020 All this talk about "we want to play" for 0-2. This is piss poor coaching and frost needs to take ownership for his offense. Defense held to 321 yards and two picks. The defense did their job and the offense sucked yet again. 10 1 Quote Link to comment
I am I Posted November 7, 2020 Author Share Posted November 7, 2020 No. No more delusion. “Hey Omar is playing, we are gonna be good now!!” that’s foolish. we don’t have talent or good coaching. talent, at times, can supersede coaching or refs, or game situations. Talent just makes plays, creates opportunities, and gets s#!t done despite coaching or whatever. we don’t have talent or coaching. tell me a sequence during the game today where we had superior talent or some decent coaching to take over the game? We had no sequence, no rhythm, no set-up, no ballers, no break opens, no rush, no physical presence, no identity, no creation. We showed ZERO today. Who flashed? How were we in it? What are our threats? How is our scheme? we aren’t a good team and we don’t have any REAL good players. I can accept that. I’m good with that. I’m better off just watching the game, drinkin a beer, hanging out knowing we aren’t that good and being cool w that then thinking we might be a good team and having expectations. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
C-4 Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Discipline needs to be the primary focus in practice. Every day. - too many penalties - too many mistakes that show a lack of football awareness(some specific penalties, play calls, QB reads, etc.) - too many risky designs in our base plays (in regards to ball security). In response, we need these changes: - Our centers snap too high and our QBs have a problem securing the shotgun ball. Call more plays under center. - We frequently put WRs in motion and snap the ball right when they’re near the QB in an attempt to draw attention to them. No one is buying Warner on a jet sweep, so this wrinkle only creates risk of the WR getting hit with the ball at snap and creating a fumble. Reduce these calls. - We frequently fumble when we attempt QB-HB meshes on zone reads. Our mesh on quick read plays isn’t secure enough. Reduce these calls. - Our QB’s often spontaneously fumble the ball in the pocket. Then they attempt to do crazy s#!t. These scenarios are way too high risk. Train this improv out of our QB’s; train them to go directly upfield after a fumble. — — We may be less explosive and have a lower offensive ceiling (at least in theory... since we’re not explosive), but these changes would make us resemble a football team. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
WyoHusker56 Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 There's talent on this team but half of it is sitting on the bench for whatever reason. That needs to change but the young talented guys it. What's the worst that can happen at this point you can't lose uglier than that. Quote Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 I'm over waiting for this team to figure it out and "turn the corner!" Earn those damn paychecks coaches! Fing embarassing... Quote Link to comment
lo country Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 This O and it's lack of anything in 3 years is squarely in Frost. Offensive guru he is not. 4 1 Quote Link to comment

Reduce the amount of receiver motions at the snap; no one is buying Warner is getting it on a sweep and it only creates risk of them getting between C-QB at the snap. Reduce the amount of handoff reads between the QB-HB; our meshes aren’t secure enough. Train the QB to go upfield no matter what if they pick up their own fumble; Luke is particular bad at boneheaded mistakes post-fumble recovery We may be less explosive (at least in theory... since we’re not explosive), but these changes would make us resemble a football team. It’s even simpler than that... just throw some freaking posts, fades, downfield option routes. Even if we suck at it, the threat at least makes the defense think about it. These dumb 20 yard pass sideway routes that only go 3-5 yards forward are called too often and they’ve NEVER been productive. It lets the defense creep up and stack more against the run threat and its not a talent issue.:: there is speed and size at the wide out position. While they’re young, they aren’t out talented by a northwestern team that was trash last year 3 Quote Link to comment
commando Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 i wonder if the B1G has adjusted to the frost offense? 1 1 Quote Link to comment
huskerfan702 Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 There is plenty of talent compared to recent years. We clearly had the better athletes today but what we don’t have is good leadership we had 4 solid scoring opportunities in the first half and walked away with 13 and the only td was basically a pick 6. Fleming made a huge difference but somehow he wasn’t ready last week. The growth athletically has been obvious but where’s our coaching advantage 1 Quote Link to comment
