Try Hilinski. Who cares about mobile? It's not like Sullivan is making any plays with his mobility.

Game is close at half as hoped for. Too bad we don’t have on offense or qb to make a dent in the Nebraska defense. Lots of chances with good field position dithered away by penalties and sacks. Our defense has played well overall. We need our offense to somehow perform in the 2nd half for us to have any hope to win.

Offensive line is a total disaster outside of one drive. Absolutely killing us with penalties and missed assignments.

Yeah I don’t think Porter has it anymore. Seems like that was a good chance for 10 yards, at least 8 with a chance to extend, but he ends up juking himself into 5.

I don't care for it but it does keep a product producing in the US. If I use it the service engine light comes on every time.
That's dumb. We can eat the corn, feed it to animals, or sell it. No need to put it in our engines and ruin them.

Do OL need to learn how to block at the college level? I just don’t understand if it’s poor coaching or just recruiting guys who will never be able to execute at this level.

Stop running? It’s called being tackled by the one defender who had any chance. Perfect play call, Two NU OL and all they had to do is put one Nebraska defender on the ground and they completely whiffed. Pathetic.

True the announcers just pointed that out. That screen should have gone to Himon anyway because he could have probably beat that guy to the marker even without the block.

Awesome PBU. It’s just gut wrenching like 2019 to watch the D make stop after stop and the O does absolutely nothing. It’s hard to even get that excited about a defensive stop when we are behind and you have the feeling that they could stop Nebraska for 0 yards the rest of the game and we’d still lose 10-6 because we cannot move the ball.
