FIRST HALF GAME THREAD

[Lincoln100]

That, right there, was awful pass d

 

[jlb321_rivals110621]

wow .. we were in prevent on that 3rd and long -- we dropped 20+ yards off the ball

 

[HuskersMan34]

What the hell were our DBs doing on that play? On 3rd and 16 there's no one within 5 yards of the receiver?

Horrible assignment football

 

[Headcard]

Terrible.

 

[jlb321_rivals110621]

OK offense lets get some breathing room

 

[HuskersMan34]

That, right there, was awful pass d

That was quite possibly the worst of a long list of bad defensive plays this year. Just based on "what the hell were we doing" quotient.

 

[WiscoSker]

Umm, haven't said that once. Just calling you guys when you spout nonsense. I still haven't gotten an actual answer from you trolls yet. I find that interesting.

Answer to what, exactly?

 

[NikkiSixx_rivals269993]

still giving their receivers way too much cushion.. no press coverage at all

 

[Redblood23]

Banker's idea to stand Collins up? Smh... How about Newby whose a natural pass rusher off the edge..

 

[HuskersMan34]

True I think the wind is a problem on long throws.

You may have a point. Would also explain why Illinois keeps trying to run when we've stuffed everything they've tried except for basically two plays.

 

[HuskersMan34]

See THAT play, I'll put on the special teams coach, because I don't know why our entire return team looked like they had no idea what they were doing.

 

[HuskersMan34]

still giving their receivers way too much cushion.. no press coverage at all

I think we've seen press coverage, and the receiver is able to blow our DBs away. I'll agree we're giving them too much space, but I think we're all just going to have to accept that our secondary just isn't remotely good right now.

 

[NebChicago]

I had forgotten Jamal Turner existed

 

[HuskersMan34]

Answer to what, exactly?

How DPE flubbing a punt was bad coaching.

 

[NebChicago]

3rd 4. Awful per usual

 

[HuskersMan34]

Aaaand another terrible pass by Tommy. To a receiver that could have turned that into at least 30 yards if it had been on target

 

[NebChicago]

Why can't we just run 3 fricken times

 

[rrthusker]

I hate these 3 and outs. Need to establish the run.

 

[Lincoln100]

The amount of 3 n outs is inexcusable

 

[NebChicago]

Mvp is the wind

 

[HuskersMan34]

Mvp is the wind

MVP is "weird playcalling" I don't understand why either offense is doing what they're doing right now.

 

[NebChicago]

Why would we run the ball? We only scored a td the last time we did

 

[rrthusker]

The amount of 3 n outs is inexcusable

It`s what happens when you don`t establish the run.

 

[Lincoln100]

Giving them lots and lots of chances to score

 

[Husker.Wed._rivals]

Time to give Fyfe a shot?

 

[hddude55]

We certainly are evenly matched with this team.

 

[HuskersMan34]

I hate these 3 and outs. Need to establish the run.

The way Tommy is throwing and the lack of catching our receivers are doing, we need to start running the ball until Illinois proves they can stop it.

 

[HuskersMan34]

[HuskersMan34]

Chuck long thinks a wide receiver obviously holding is an "excellent block."

 

[rrthusker]

Time to give Fyfe a shot?

Ugh please no.

 

[HuskersMan34]

We certainly are evenly matched with this team.

Just like Ohio State is with Indiana I guess.

 

[Husker.Wed._rivals]

Hey- I just throw em against the wall to see if they stick.

 

[NikkiSixx_rivals269993]

nope, we haven't pressed even once

 

[NebChicago]

This is bizzaro world of football

 

[Cdn Blackshirt]

Receivers need to make catches....

There have been yards there if they would just get their hands out. No excuses for letting the ball get to their pads.

That being said, Langadorf needs to change calls to suit elements.

 

[hddude55]

RUN THE BALL!!

 

[leodisflowers]

Time to give Fyfe a shot?

Not no but he'll no

he also needs to change the calls based on the performance of the team right now. We've been getting chunks of yards running the ball. Of ALL the coaches on the staff so far, I've been most concerned with Langsdorf. With Banker, I honestly can't tell if its scheme or lack of talent. With Langsdorf, he'll watch us get 5 or 6 yards a carry and then abandon the run. Shades of Tim Beck right now as far as going with the flow of the game.

 

[Lincoln100]

So what is 28 doing there? He's dancing about 7 yards off the line of scrimmage, with nobody in the zip code. No coverage, no going after the ball, weird
