I hope that is a true statement.

Thanks to the pathetic schedule, we might get to a bowl game. And that would be huge for this team. But we are not going anywhere with any of the QBs on the roster. No B1G West schedule next year.

Need a guy that can make something happen in the passing game. Doesn't help at all that all our top WRs are injured.

Totally agree. The QB room at Neb right now leaves so so much to be desired. Can’t compete with the East or the new teams coming into the league with who we have. Remember the shootouts we had just 2 years ago against Ok and Mich. That was AM. The guy had problems with TOs at inopportune moments but he was so much more talented than what we have now. We need to upgrade to a talented Qb (who hopefully doesn’t turn it over besides). Offense this year is putrid for a number of reasons but Qb is one of those reasons.

None of the QB's that have started for NU this year will ever start for a P5 school after this year.

Imagine how different the outlook would be if we had just moderately effective QB play.
we control our own destiny in the west going into the last week of Oct

guessing you'd have never predicted that prior to the season

winners win. losers post loser **** like this.

Is Kaelin an earlier enrollee? Is he here for Spring practice or does he arrive later for Fall camp? Either way yes we do need a QB from the transfer portal.

What would those scores have been with this offense? Would we have been in those games until the end? If you say “yes” to either of those questions, I call BS. This offense is doing VERY good to score 17 points - against ANYONE.

What would our record be in games HH started if we had started any other QB in college football? My guess is 4-1. So why we bitching about HH?

Hasn't even stepped foot on campus and already writing off the Elite 11 QB. Gotcha. :rolleyes:
his will be the only new face in the QB room next year.

it would be nice for him to get his body developed enough to take over.

door's wide open in 2026.

Pretty sure Haarberg will be the starting QB next year, barring injury.

the morale would've gone into the ******* the moment anything bad happened because the guy who put up all those points/yards was a loser who infected everyone else with his loserdom

you can wax poetic about Ls all you want. I'll take the Ws.

Look forward to some very ugly offensive games again next year. D has to be stellar.
just because you haven't improved in any facet of life for decades doesn't mean everyone is okay remaining stagnant

every week we see something from HH we haven't seen before. this week was no different.

Noah Vedral could have us at 4-3 with the way things have gone. Did you consider him to be an above average Qb? An average Qb? HH isn’t very good. Decent leader. Good kid. Not the answer. We would have lost today against almost anybody in the BIG not named Northwestern.

I hope he will become want we want, but I doubt he will be ready as a true frosh. But if he’s the only add to the QB room for next year, he will be my favorite. I would much prefer we pick up somebody as good as Casey Thompson from the portal.

Maybe he'll improve but right now it's in spite of not because of
HH was responsible yet again for the lion's share of total offense and had his hand in both TDs

complimentary football works

both specialists had nice games, as well

EJ brought a spark

What was this week? Turnovers? Dropped snaps?

this is baseless conjecture

Vedral never won a game he started at NU despite playing the same crap conference teams (indiana) and being surrounded by more talent

50 yard bomb in the air to Coleman

longest completion of his career and longest completion since black friday of last year

HH has much to work on and we just keep on winning. this is a very exciting time to be an NU fan.

Haarberg’s value in the run game is decisive, he has great speed for his size. And I think the Johnson kid can take some pressure off of him in the run game. His field vision in the passing game needs to improve.

I didn't think HH was hot stuff before today nor do I think he's hot garbage after today's game. I think he's a work in progress who might have a high ceiling or a low ceiling. Just along for the ride and enjoying the Ws.

I swear, the Eeyores here would rather have a QB who throws for 400 yards and loses vs one that throws for 100 and wins...HH didn't have his best day but did enough to put another W in the column...he should apologize for nothing
