What did we learn Illinois edition

[Cornbred]

But then again maybe this is what Nebraska needed. Maybe they stop believing their hype and realize that they have a long ways to go yet

Offense could have won the game. Special teams could have won the game. Defense could have won the game. None of them won the game.

Got some people laughing at me in the game thread, but Matt Rhule’s game and time management is awful. Starting to wonder if Carolina is the norm and not Baylor.

Chasing 1?

I learned when I follow a thread I get an email for each post. I’ll be deleting for a week 

 

[DevoHusker]

I have said, multiple times, our Oline is not very good

 

[LumberJackSker]

The defense got exposed. Should have went for it on 4th down instead of kicking the field goal. Play to win

How many more kicks do they need to miss before rhule figures out there isn't a kicker on the roster?

I learned that I know how to spot a Nebraska loss way before the game is over. 
 

I saw it on the Raiola overthrow. I knew it would be painful and familiar

Reminds me of the Maryland game or maybe the Michigan State game from last year (maybe both, it’s all blending in at this point) where the energy was just weird from the start.

On the road 3 of the next 4. Going to need better defensive energy than this.

He’s not a good game manager. At all

Nothing’s changed. It’s been what 23 years? Nothing’s changed. Nothing will ever change. Same s#!t.

2 Things.

1.  We're gonna look back at the end of this year and question why greater urgency wasn't placed on getting a field goal kicker here.  Alvano has gotten too much praise and a pass around here for hitting some kick in high school.  He was a borderline failure last year and to just bring him here this season with minimal competition for the job is inexcusable.

2.  I dont really wanna hear abuot this defense being solid for awhile.  Last year we continually gave up 3rd down conversions, long plays, couldnt clamp down when it mattered.  looked exactly the same tonight.

Love Dylan but he missed a wide open go ahead touchdown. Yes we should have gone for it on 4th but why are we acting like that shouldn't have been a td thrown that would have absolutely sealed the game for us? 

We should have kept running the ball on 3rd and 3 after we were having success on that drive. Nebraska is horrible at situational play calling.

 

[HuskerInLostWages]

I found out our WR's are pansies, 2 weeks in a row a ball has been taken from them with very little fight.  Score that TD in the 1st half game was already over but no someone wants to half a$$ again and lose the ball.

What good does game and time management do you when you dont have a kicker who can make a 25 yard field goal?  On the list of dumb af things we saw tonight, the time management doesnt even crack the top 10 on concerns but continue to stand on your soap box and yell!
