Of course, DB is just 1 guy with an opinion. Damon Benning is a douche bag. Bando will be a star, Newby will play on Sunday, When is he ever right ? 1 Quote Link to comment

This offense work efficiently without a throwing QB. Adrian is the best option at the moment and that’s the big problem moving forward. QB play did not cost us that game, period. AM missed some throws that definitely would have helped, but the biggest issue with Minny was offensive line play and poor play calling choices. I made quite a few bullet points in the Rutgers week thread. Basically 5 or 6 blocks could have drastically changed the game for us. Quote Link to comment
teachercd Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 These guys don't quit, they really don't. The yardage they have some games just doesn't make sense with the score. 2 Quote Link to comment

ColoradoHusk Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 I learned that I can still drink a good number of beers during a night game, and couple more listening to the post game after a victory. 1 Quote Link to comment

Special teams is a mess (borderline disaster) that needs cleaned up. Costing way to much Good news is that diaco is available and used to coach special teams. NO! Not the stain!!

This year the opposing defenses never had to be concerned about getting beat over the top. I think the former is partly a product of the latter. This feels like the most actions our TEs have seen in, like, ever. Quote Link to comment

ladyhawke Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 9 hours ago, I am I said: I learned we fought til the end and won at this point a win is a win. still some stupid penalties and turnovers. Yet we actually looked competent at times, even tho Rutgers. all the stats and measurables are there. Just gotta clean it up, ie young team. If the BS lockdowns stop and we can have the early enrollees come in, spring practices, etc we can clean that up and be cohesive, I think we are nearly there. 2 things negative: special teams are bad. Realllly bad. why isn’t Luke M on the field as a RB, slot, wildcat even a little bit? He’s too good to not play. Start at QB a couple games, run some RB, make a ton of plays early on but now not on the field at all? Weird. They gotta get him on the field. He’s not a D1 QB, but he’s good enough to touch the ball 8-10 times a game. we won, I’ll take it. Let’s go “bowling” and keep moving forward. AND....those Refs wouldn’t know a block in the back of it slapped them in the face! Rutgers also held our boys all night and were only called for it one time! 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Bledred Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 I learned that our real opponent is actually Scott Frost and his horrific play calling. RUN THE DAMN BALL AND WIN NEARLY EVERY TIME! EVEN WITH FOUR FREAKING TURNOVERS! Quote Link to comment

Rutgers also held our boys all night and were only called for it one time! I've not been impressed with this particular officiating crew throughout the season. Definitely biased though after watching the head ref mouth "wow" after our DB makes hard (should've been legal) hit against OSU and the subsequent flag. 1 Quote Link to comment
hskrpwr13 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Learned this offense CAN look very well when run game (working from start) is stuck with. Frost maybe learn a lesson from Minny debacle? One nitpick: Gotta call more north/south near goal line. Yet, was nice to see the well executed option. Quote Link to comment
huskered17 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Well we might have just beat the worst team in the B1G, but they played 8 games before us, and no one had 3- 90 yard drives against them in a half. Has to say something what this team can do, with the coaches we have now. Special teams are out in the twilight zone, by themselves. GBR!!! 2 Quote Link to comment
