Their D coordinator comes over here but they go to OSU and LSU? 2 hours ago, NM11046 said: Maybe the coach, knowing them and their backgrounds wasn't as interested as OSU and LSU I mean there are 2 reasons they were at Syracuse in the first place - Coach White might be one, but the bigger reason is just the offers they had out of high school. Even if they love Coach White, you'd be leaving Syracuse to follow him anyway and now you can pretty much go anywhere. Those are two of the premier DB factories in the country. Quote Link to comment
TGHusker Posted January 10, 2023 Author Share Posted January 10, 2023 We watched Georgia destroy TCU's 3-3-5 D last night. Does that give anyone 'pause' when considering that we might be going to the same base defense? Quote Link to comment

White has made it clear, that his system isn't just setting up and running a 3-3-5 constantly. It can and will be adjusted. 1 Quote Link to comment

They also didn't seem to be very aggressive. Have all those things and any defense will look bad. 1 Quote Link to comment

I guess Nebraska doesn't have the biggest victory total in a championship game any longer (1995). I turned it off when they went ahead 51-7. Could not believe they scored 2 more TDs and TCU was still sitting at 7. Quote Link to comment

UGA would not be denied last night. They were clicking on all cylinders. Hard to stop a team with their talent when that happens. 2 Quote Link to comment

Yawner for sure. So when does 2023 Georgia enter the debate of "Greatest of all Time"?? 1995 & 1971 Nebraska need to continue to be a part of that debate. We got 2001 Miami, 2019 LSU also claiming that title. Quote Link to comment
84HuskerLaw Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 TCU doesn’t get to the final game if there were 12 teams to start with. One game upset is all it took. 3 Quote Link to comment

I thought their talent level may have exceeded some of the better Bama teams of the past decade or at least matched up to it. 1 Quote Link to comment
Spacer Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 TCU didn't look as aggressive as they usually do. I think they knew they knew they were outgunned and it showed in the way they played. Regardless of the Defensive front we run - we CANNOT be outsized/outmanned on the LOS. Just can't win like that; but thankfully Rhule seems to be aware of this... He even mentioned he likes quick, athletic lineman; but ultimately, we need big scary guys up front. big, scary, AND athletic is the ideal tho 1 Quote Link to comment
