It's getting a bit sad and weird to suggest how much more badly they would have been beaten under Frost than Joseph. Nebraska was penalized plenty in a really shoddy game against Rutgers, and while they had only modest penalties yesterday they made up for it in turnovers. If not giving up against good teams is the yardstick, then Scott Frost's 2021 season was a triumph. You and I are in alignment. I don’t get why people think that the play under Mickey being marginally better than Frost is cause for Mickey getting the full time coach. 2 Quote Link to comment
Display name Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Doesn’t mater how good of a coach you are you can’t scheme around the play of this offensive line the defensive line played better but still not good enough they should be able to sell immediate playing time across both lines in the portal and high school seniors I think you give Mickey a couple years to see if he can make it happen no more five year contracts until they prove they are worthy 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Crusader Husker Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 I learned a was lucky and didin't watch it. The radio feed kept dropping and I just gave up. I guess, I can't wait until this is over. BUT, I will call it a great season if we beat Iowa, they suck for no reason at all. Quote Link to comment

That seems to be the issue the divides the fans and former players and media. The eye test? The wins vs losses test? What is the pass or fail measure?

We don’t need to start over I don’t think any way we lost to a top 20 team with the number 1 def in the country while playing a back up Qb and it wasn’t a blow out we went three and out how many times in a row after Casey got hurt no defense can hold up to that and Casey would be so much better with a offensive line I mean it’s amazing we were ahead at one point with the worst offensive line in the country with a few upgrades in the coaching staff like coach O on the defense and a few others I think they could turn it around pretty quick we have good skill players just need some dudes in the trenches Quote Link to comment

I don’t believe that the offensive line is beyond terrible which makes the offense look bad the d line is a little better but still bad enough to make the linebackers look bad Quote Link to comment
Lorewarn Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Whipple deserves the most blame for the loss of anyone although there's plenty to go around to different parties. He refuses to make the game easier for his players, or to even entertain the idea of establishing the run (which we were having success with in the half dozen times he reluctantly agreed you can't throw it deep on EVERY play). The way to win against a team like Illinois when you're outmanned is score early, get one stop and one more score and force them to be behind schedule. We had that opportunity, but Whip scheming 'too smart' and Casey not playing smart enough made it impossible. Quote Link to comment
Display name Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 The best thing Mickey could do is fire Duval he has turned these linemen in to guys that can’t move or bend by lifting so heavy they are not body builders there athletes you don’t need to squat 700 lbs to play football they should stop at 500 and increase reps 2 Quote Link to comment
