Just something to mix up what the defense is expecting. We don't have a ton of surprises and seem to like running our smallest back (Wandale) into the teeth of the defense repeatedly. We have to be able to mix some things up or else we're going to be stagnant a lot. Hearing Austin's off season comments, I really thought we would. Not as a staple per say, but as a more planned and actual part of our scheme. Not a gimmick thing. Quote Link to comment

Doesn't feel like we're any closer to having an identity. 1 Quote Link to comment

I can’t think of any reason not to play the most talented people and not necessarily the most “seasoned” players. 2 1 Quote Link to comment
Huskers93-97 Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 First half played great. Second half very disappointing. Almost blew the game with conservative play calls. Saw some good defensive growth but man offense needs to play a full game. 1 Quote Link to comment
Hayseed Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 The postgame from McCaffrey was telling. He was a nervous kid in his first start and did pretty good the first half. The second half he got spanked. I'm sure he'll look at what happened and mature in a hurry. Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 The team needs to learn how to win. The fans also need to learn how to appreciate a win. The last several pages of this thread, from after the game, read like trauma victims trying to cope. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
Savage Husker Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 This win is program boosting and I don’t care if it’s an 0-4 PSU or not. The defense gave up a ton of yards and made the necessary stops when they needed. Even with the OSU loss, they have stabilized the team while the offense figures it out. It’s frustrating as heck to not see Frost adjust and figure it out to string a couple drives together, but that’ll come - just as the players will clean up their miscues. Those timing plays are there if they don’t run into each other, slip, miss a block, flip the flea flicker high, or misfire a snap. Not going to take any win for granted, build from here!

Can't we take a breath, enjoy the win, watch the team mature and just enjoy being on the winning side for the first time this year. The remainder of our schedule is winnable... 1 game at a time So many b!^@hing!! I don't get it.. before the season began nearly everyone had us pegged at 1-3 (or 2-2 at best).. therefore, imo we are 2-2 (wisky forfeited). Me.. well, I'll take this win. The money monkey is off their back. Maybe they begin to play a little faster, a little looser and with a little more confidence. I'm going to enjoy this win until kickoff next Saturday! GBR!! Anyone who doesn't start off a post with _______________ sucks or we suck is dismissed as koolaid drinkers. I have beefs with the play calling, burning timeouts due to disorganized coaching.....I really do, but can we revel in a win just for a while? 1 Quote Link to comment

MyBloodIsRed16 Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 after watching this game it is clear to me that Ohio State has had the worst O-line of any team we have played this year. Quote Link to comment
