Hooked on Huskers
All-Conference
Jennifer Lawrence? Never heard of her. (I'm serious). I suppose google search. Old coot here.
I would actually be disturbed with the Pope violating the chastity vow! The return of the Dark Age popes is not something that I welcome!For the 1,487,243,546,928th time, nobody gives a rat's a$$ what fans of other teams say about Nebraska or Bo.
We could have the love child of Pope Francis and Jennifer Lawrence as our head coach and fans of other teams would hate him and want his a$$ fired.
uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.............................................Nope, real facts. OU Nation checking in.Made up facts are swell.Outside HuskerNation, 95% of true CFB fans said Bo is a foul X-rated mouth and big time ill tempered. And head coach, Bo was worst than Lane Kiffin (falsely accused, I hope). Again, outside HuskerNation, majority of fans stuck on T-Mart poking, Leakgate, cap weapon, postgame rant pressers, etc. ....... In contrary, Jake Hoffman's thing, team meeting pranks, kindness, etc., faded memories or erase completely.

Tampa, Florida checking in. I also know tons of CFB fans, mostly SEC and of course all the Florida teams.
I have seen nothing but respect for NU as a team and program, and historic power. I still run into Gator fans that squirm with bad memories of a particular Fiesta Bowl, but even they have respect for the program.
There ARE some head-scratching questions about why we have put up with Bo's antics, and about how soon, if ever, we will either get over the hump, or get a championship of some sort, or if we let Bo go first. They are also understanding of the great record, always 9-10 win seasons, but as stumped as anyone as to why we can't quite get a couple more here and there.
Outcome of drive after turnover:This is pretty solid. Good analysis on the turnovers too. It's not quantifiable, but the turnovers are momentum killing, mentally deflating events that have triggered a few of these blowouts. Wisconsin (first time), Ohio State, UCLA, Michigan State. Those games swung in an almost unbelievable fashion following turnovers. Some of that falls on Beck and his ability to steady the ship, grind out an 8 play, 40 yard drive and move on. Instead they often snowball. The 3 and outs following turnovers is something I'd like to see analyzed. They try to get the score back, go 3 and out and we end up quickly scored on again. That's a killer mentally.

Wisconsin:
- Interception (5 straight passes)
- Missed FG at halftime
- 3-and-out (2 rushes and one pass)
Ohio State:
- TD (7 plays, 92 yards) (7 rushes)
- TD (4 plays, 75 yards) (3 rushes and one pass)
- 3-and-out (2 rush and one pass) (11 play, 67 yard TD drive on next possession)
- One rush to end the game
Michigan State:
- Interception (10 yard rush, 8 yard completion, INT)
- 3-and-out (3 AA rushes)
- One rush to end the half
- TD (11 plays, 79 yards) (5 rushes and 6 passes)
- Can't find last one
I'd say this theory only holds weight on the first Wisconsin occurrence.
I don't think either argument holds much weight. I think they are just that, complaints.So, the complaint is that after an interception, we go too conservative?
I always thought the cool argument was that we get too cute and try to do too much. I thought all we had to do is line up and run it straight ahead and we would be world champions.
I've never agreed with that. Got a gameplan, do the gameplan. They run it plenty.So, the complaint is that after an interception, we go too conservative?
