Best way to describe the Bo Pelini era Nebraska teams : UNDISCIPLINED

QFT. Now Bo is starting to stagnate. Somebody should tell Beck Watson isn't here anymore.

Pelini said it himself- it come down to special team and turnovers. The turnovers got us

As did the special teams

 

[lo country]

I put most of this poor second half performance on two areas Tim Beck & Barney Cotton.

1) Tim Beck because you know your defense is starting to struggle stopping the deep ball, so help your defense out by running it more on first down and working that clock.

2) Barney Cotton because....opps another penalty by an offensive lineman.......oh there's another.

I will say it. Beck sux. Plain and simple. No imagination. No misdirection, abandons what is working.

Reverse to Bell, Burkhead pitches to Martinez, Burkhead throwback to Martinez ...how many more do you want?

Those are all gimmick plays. Line up and run a dive, ISO, Power Off-Tackle. I mean those plays you listed are nice if they work, but they don't wear out a defense like straight downhill running plays do.

And Beck, like all season, abandons what worked. Idiot (Beck, not you!)

Is anyone suprised? same bs weve seen all fuk*n year. But ask big game Bo about it and youll get some bs coachspeak. I for one am tired of seeing NU piss down thier leg. How many times this year have we pooped the bed in the 2nd half?

 

[husker B-rent]

is it possible to sue the refs for calling a horrible game?

Pelini said it himself- it come down to special team and turnovers. The turnovers got us

If abdullah didn't fumble it would have been 20-9 and we would have all the momentum

If they're going to be undisciplined, too bad not in the University of Miami 'we're really good but we're thugs' way, but in the 'we're just thugs way'. What a terrible thing to realize. I hate this.

this is the downside to the emotional Pelini that can really motivate a team. It's hard to sustain a game in an emotional state

 

[The Duke]

OK we have all seen the same thing today, and for the better part of four years. Let's put a pause on the complaining for just a minute, and let's go to work:

How does this Nebraska team get fixed? What changes do we need to make? Fire away!

 

[BIGREDIOWAN]

The B1G sucks in the bowls.......

 

[Vince R.]

We have the talent to win but not enough talent to overcome a deficit. We need better athletes at every phase.

 

[Paul in WI]

Lavonte still playing like it matters.

I'm gonna miss that guy.

I will second that. The only defensive player with any heart on this current defensive squad.

concur

That's the thing that has torn me up the most about this current bunch. We should be called the Tin Men. Our program needs to find a Husker heart somewhere--FAST.

 

[hskrfan4life]

Good teams overcome penalties. And drops. We aren't a good team if we don't win.

I'm sorry to say this, but you guys sound like a bunch of whining little girls.

 

[Animal_Mother]

Wow....speechless

 

[walksalone]

where's the sense of urgency?

I know there's 3 and a half minutes left, so f*cking act like it

nevermind
