If there was a ranking for the dumbest team in FBS, we win that championship trophy hands down. We are sinking so low that there is no light in the tunnel anymore...we are hundreds of miles away from any light...it is going to be a very long wait till we see what next year brings. 2018 is not a husker year. I am going to follow volleyball the rest of this season. At least our lady Huskers have mojo. Our football players have no family jewels anymore.

lo country is exactly right. It's not about changing DC's but can your DC adjust. NW had zero running game. They were one dimensional yet we had the same stupid pass rush where their OL was locking up our same guy every down. The entire game Thornton was clean and allowing him to pick us apart on third and fourth down. I find the best pass rusher on the team and that guy plays a ton. If we don't have them go out and f'ing recruit them. This crap has gone on for years where we make QB's looks all world against us. I have a major concern we think we can score like Oregon or UCF so who cares if the defense is garbage? This game was heavily mismanaged on defense. Stop playing the sh#1tty man defense and giving up big plays and PI penalties. Man defense doesn't work when there is zero pressure on the QB. Make NW earn it...we gave it to them and the refs didn't help us either.

That is not even close to what I meant. However, this loss is on him and he needs to own it and he needs to hold his incompetent coordinators responsible.

And his original mentor Tom Osborne would have never let up in the final minutes. How do you not even try to get a first down? You’re 0-5 and in the driver seat to win the game, you do not have luxury of being c$%ky.

No one needs to get fired but the coaches do need to own up to today.

I think S.F. can and will come around to being a fine coach here at Nebraska. It'll take several seasons and some bullet biting on his part as to adjusting (firing) some of his staff, especially defensive, along with, of course, getting out of play calling and letting OC do that.
Just my two cents opinion.

poor guy. doesn't know what to do. i'm sure he didn't think it would be this hard at Nebraska. go to be the first coach in NCAA history to win a national championship at your alma mater and then lead them to an 0-6 start.

I will vomit if he starts preaching player accountability. Starts with him. Needs to retract that statement that the big 10 needs to adjust to him.
I dony want him fired ire’s I just want him
to grow.
No. According to the recruit rankings we are 4-5 in the B1G with talent on paper. Surely you'd agree talent wise we are better than Troy, CU, Purdue and North Western......
I look at other teams that win with less talent by play calling to their strengths on both sides of the ball. Excelling in the basics ie tackling, penalties, limiting miscues.
I'n not calling for anyones head. We start doing that and we will stay where we are. I'm not naive enough though to look at the talent we have doesn't equal the results we have. We just watched a one dimensional team drive 99 yards and score. Dumb penalties and a D that couldn't remotely come close to stopping the only thing they had to. The pass. Rush 3, multiple guys in coverage. All off season Chin continually defended that his 3-4 was not really a 3-4. That they would adjust as needed. Might be a 4 man front or even 5 man in obvious passing downs....I really havent seen any of this. His D bends and breaks. Nothing wrong with re-examining and growing. See what other teams do in the B1G to win. Bo did great in the Big 12, but never adjusted to the B1G.
Win Frost says the system works. He's seen it at UCF I agree. I just hope he isn't married to the schemes as it relates to play calling. Scheme related to culture, accountability absolutely. In reality trust is a 2 way street. Kids have to trust that the staff puts you in the best position to win. IMHO, after todays game, there might be some questions raised.
