Illinois - What Did We Learn?

The Duke

All-Conference
What Did We Learn?

I learned:

  • At this point Scott Frost needs to swallow his pride and start completely over with his offensive scheme... starting now, or this program will never be able to recover.
  • This is nowhere near the same scheme Frost & Moos sold us 3 years ago.
  • Frost and the entire coaching staff are officially now on the hot seat.



  • Luke McCaffery is a great athlete, but not a great quarterback. His passes have no zip. The ball takes too much time to get from his throwing hand to an open receiver, and by that point it's too late.



  • Nebraska should NEVER wear alternate uniforms ever again.

Luke can not throw an accurate ball. 
 

Luke has no deep ball. 
 

adrian must have really made someone mad. 

Wan’Dale has a TON of heart 

Defense still can’t get off the field, it’s been what 18 years of that? 
 

no discipline, especially o line and the entire punt return team. 
 

I dunno where we go from here. I’ve been a true fan of frosty but I’m concerned.  Does chin need to go? Almost instantly?

 
At this point, done wasting time on what did we learn.  We all saw the same crappy football.  
 

Thank God we didn’t have to play Wisconsin.

Like 90% here, you are watching the rest of the games like me.  I’m willing to see how we play out.  2020 sucks altogether. Silver lining is we are seeing a lot on certain players and coaches.  If we continue to suck this bad, then you’ll hear from me but this team was $hit today.  Move on to next game.

They would have put at least 50+ on us.

You are not necessarily wrong, but a competent passing quarterback could make this offense shine.

This offense looks like something Notre Dame ran in the 40's.  

 
this offense is a turnover machine.  Effort is so troubling. Defense never stopped Illinois today (yes Illinois).   

 
Saturdays are much more entertaining when knowing I do not in anyway have to give Chin kudos.

The OLine is getting worse the last three weeks.

Oliver Martin played well in his limited snaps(2 catches and a great block on WanDale's long run) so don't expect to see him next week.

Garrett Nelson really hasn't a clue on what exactly he's supposed to do, but he goes 100 mph so people like him

An OLB clone of JoJo to play opposite JoJo is desperately needed.

The CBs can lock down the best WR in the league playing press man, but for some reason 10-15 yards off the line is the better gameplan???

There is no way anyone has a clue of what NU has in any given skill player, because no one can get in any kind of rhythm due to getting yanked around series to series while Scott figures out what his offense is

Kicker and punter are solid, the 10 guys they share the field with........ifffy

Some posters, labeled "Debbie Downers", are actually people who have spotted the bad trends and flaws long ago, and are frustrated that these things have never been corrected three years in.  We do love NU football, and enjoy when the team wins.  However, when patterns occur week after week, it gets more and more difficult to be cheery about it
