The stat sheet comparison. The national rank numbers are sickening. This explains tons!!
This is enough to make you throw up...

It starts with coaching, and it’s bad right now, real bad.
Top 20 in kick off returns. Starting to understand our defensive philosophy a bit better.
So, we can say they’re real good at being bad. After all, you have to be good at something.
If this didn't include the first half of the Oregon game, the OSU and Wisconsin games, we would be much better.

I'm not sure I've seen a Nebraska team as good as this one with throwing pick 6's..
It is very clear that this coaching staff has failed. Time to move on.
Well we gave up 500 yards of offense to Arkansas State
If it didn't include the Illinois game and the Rutgers game, we'd be much worse.
See how that works?
There are a few left on the deck of the Titanic that believe the ship isn't sinking. Those posts make the board entertaining.
Is this a serious post or am I missing the sarcasm? Of course that's the case. That's anybody's case. Let everybody take away 2 and a half games of the season. Hell, why not just take out the whole season...we're still undefeated!!

And even they don't really believe their own rhetoric. They just like to posture as the "reasonable adults" standing against the rabble of pitchfork nutjobs.

But hey... Parrella is KILLING it.
Yeah, I think we're all ready for our slide to mediocrity to end. That is if the goal is to be "relevant" again--and it really wasn't as much as it was to be "respectable". Hence, the MR hire imo.
well going against ohio state with 3 people on the line, and everyone else is playing bend, miss tackle, then break...doesn't help
Scheme problem for JP. For everyone else it’s just poor coaching. We get it.

And Parrella just goes with it like a good soldier even though he knows so much better. Duh!!!
And if our record didn’t include the losses, we’d be undefeated.
We're pretty decent at kickoff returns. So we got that going for us.
Not meant to derail the thread but..
Did Eichorst put any effort in to the hiring process? I mean did he take several interviews? Were there any other serious candidates?
Or was he set on Riley from the moment he knew he was interested?
I was confused about the hire then and still am to this day.

No, it is not serious, it is PURE sarcasm. People like to pick and chose and were making it look like our D was getting better since the first half of Oregon which we know is not the case.
Maybe I missed it...but where are all the poor coaching posts in regards to Trent Bray/Scott Booker/Donte Williams? It seems as if the only people that bring up Parrella are the ones that think it's a big no no to hire former Huskers in any capacity. Mind you, for the most part they are the same people that have defended Riley ad nauseam. Of course, Riley was also the person responsible for hiring Parrella. If that was a bad hire, just tack on another failure on the uber experienced coach's belt.
Some people have Parellaitis, aka hater mentality. The way some of them talk, you’d think they could do a better job. John, I would assume, would tell you he needs to do better and get the defensive line improved. I don’t have an axe to grind on a personal level with any of the current staff, but we all see that this year has been terrible. Some here just seem to know more about coaching and single out the whipping boy on their own list, and Parella is high on a few posters agenda.
It was wishful thinking even though Oregon got vanilla and Rutgers and Ill had bad offense the Defense did improve - and even played well for a half against WI u til the badgers stole their mojo
Oregon didn't take their foot off the gas. Our defense morphed into a top 10 defense at halftime.RollingLaugh
Is anybody starting to worry about that penn state running back yet ? With the soft defense we play that will just give him a running start. I could see another Melvin Gordon type 400 yard game from him unless they take him out to rest him.
As I recall we beat Kansas state when they had Darren Sprolls. We did it by getting to him early before he had a chance to use his spend and quickness. Not going to be able to do that playing a bend, don't break defense.
