lo country Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Sadly, statistically speaking, we are not a 2nd half team....We lose to Minnie....That'll leave a mark. 1 Quote Link to comment

The guy called me a Karen, and now people are suggesting he got banned for it. That'd be the quickest ban for the most innocuous thing I've ever seen on this board. I mean, I didn't like the comment, but usually people get warnings. I think he is just a previously banned person. Quote Link to comment
HuskerNation1 Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Question of the season: What is this team's strength on offense? I honestly do not know what they do well or what other defenses fear when they play Nebraska. 1 Quote Link to comment

And a vanilla offense. They only need to defend 5 plays and we can't even do those right. But at least the snaps have been better!? Don’t also forget the minny qb getting all day to throw to wide open receivers down field and a secondary who couldn’t catch a pass thrown perfectly to them for a pick Quote Link to comment
huskerfaninbuckeyehell Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 What about deferring to the 2nd half is Frost against exactly? Drives me absolutely insane. Quote Link to comment

You recruit the kid because he is a baller. Let him ball out. Quote Link to comment

Casual sports fans want high scoring games with teams going up and down the field. Ncaa/NFL dont want qbs getting touched or dbs forcing incompletions because that stops scoring. These rules have nothing to do with player safety and everything to do with ratings. Same thing with hands to the face. Offensive player can stiff arm defense in the face mask and is almost never called a penalty. 1 Quote Link to comment

OmahaPlaya Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 That targeting call was total BS. We are only down 3 but we need to respond big in this next half. Quote Link to comment

The Duke Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 First Half Observations The swing pass to the halfback needs to be scrapped. I get what Nebraska is trying to do, but we just can't execute this play, and it is costing us drives. They would be much better off going back to using the Speed Option. Smart use of our TE's in the 2nd quarter. Offset and using as a lead or kickout blocker really helped open up our running game. Makes you wonder if a lead blocker works so well, why not use a Fullback? Martinez twice missed WIDE OPEN receivers on two deep balls. He clearly doesn't have his same deep ball accuaracy as he did his freshman year. For Nebraska's defense, what happend to the creative blitzes on 3rd down that we used last week against Perdue? Minnesota for their part is playing smart football. They are playing to their strength, and playing the field possesion game. The targeting penalty in college football is garbage, and I'll say it...It's ruining the game. Make the rule a 15 yard unnecessary roughness penalty and move on with no player ejections. Things I'd like to see in the 2nd Quarter Build off those sets using the TE as a lead blocker. Establish the running game, sprinkle in some read-option and then hit them with play-action. Find a way to get pressure with the defense either with some stunts or mix up our zone blitz calls like we did against Perdue. Be willing to play a little more Man Defense even with Cam Taylor-Brit out of the game. Quote Link to comment
