Interesting note.

 

Out of 149 QBs that have attempted at least 50 passes this year, Martinez is #109 in percentage of throws 20+ yards downfield.  Thompson is #35.

Wow….would have thought Thompson would have been higher. There must be some that only throw bombs.

Adrian possibly hurt. His back up just hit Kade Warner for a td.

Backup QB goes 13-20 225 yards 2 TDs 1 INT.  The KSU backup entered the game down 7-0 and lead them to a 28-10 lead........ not too shabby.  For someone who hadn't played all year.

Defense didnt hold up and missing 2 field goals didn't help.

He definitely took the high road. He could have said a lot about how s#!tty his OL was, how Frost and Verducci had no idea what they were doing based on getting real coaching now, etc.

He made some real blunders while playing for the Huskers, but when you are constantly running for your life because of your OL you rush things. Probably crumbled under the pressure a bit too I guess. Everything fell on him while with the Huskers. At KSU he can just play and know he can hand the ball off the Deuce and be good.

QB plug and play did ok though right?

Backup QB missed an open Kade Warner for a TD early in the 4th quarter. Would have cut the lead to 3. Make matters worse, the kicker missed the FG which would have cut the lead to 7. The backup played well, but did little in the 2nd half, when he may have been injured as well.

28-10 lead seems to be a good thing, no?

I mean, TCU is a pretty dang good football team to get thrown into, without playing at all this year.

I said the backup QB did some good things in the first half.

Any idea on AM's injury?

We all know that KSU ultimately lost, right?  TCU game planned for Martinez all week and we’re caught spinning a bit when a qb with no wheels and an accurate arm came in. But. Didn’t take long for them to adjust and shut that down too, and then also roll off 28 unanswered to bring home the w.

You did?  I will have to re-read what you said.  I am sure a QB coming in cold, down 7, and leading  team to a 28-10 advantage is doing some good things. ??   At Nebraska that would be amazing.
