OU vs NU 1ST HALF GAME THREAD!

[TDLaww2020]

First games are not usually the best for most teams. New defensive scheme and new personnel. A 3-9 season seems pretty doomsday prediction like

When a team is struggling on fundamentals, it only makes sense

 

[19Football19]

He just got an extension lol

The options will be like Rhule. Take a big name no one else wanted. Thats a guaranteed win

 

[Pennsyhuskers]

Our offense better start scoring points because it doesn’t look like our defense can stop them

 

[RedMyMind2.0]

espn.com has Ohio at 136 yards and 12 plays run. Is 11.33 yds per play good?

did you miss the first play from scrimmage?

 

[Zeke Husker]

If we lose, how quick can we expedite the firing process?

Would need to be by noon on Monday.

 

[Man Woman & Child]

Gee, who could’ve seen problems with a Rhule coached team coming lol

fixed

 

[TouchdownTom]

I thought I remembered that Aurich’s defenses were aggressive and good against the run but sucked *** in pass defense. At least last year we had a decent pass defense now we night suck all around

 

[Red_Symptom]

Looks like two evenly matched teams. Likely going to be in the 4th quarter where our depth should help us as players get tired.

 

[RedMyMind2.0]

Ohio got lucky on that penalty

 

[Poster FKA schuele]

K-Stare fans puzzled by that flag.

 

[Harry Caray]

We just don't have enough NIL money to compete with the likes of Ohio

 

[Zeke Husker]

What does this have to do with Iowa?

His dumb *** is a Hawkeye fan he has been coming on here for years being a moron

 

[Red_Symptom]

Can someone send a memo to FS1 that we don't have to hear "nice" 1 second after the snap every other play

 

[Cruel Halo]

Remember... Rhule said they studied Ohio all summer

 

[RedMyMind2.0]

penalties have been the story so far

 

[RBigredMax1]

At least Nwanari is getting pressure. If you are going to get a flag may as well make it worth it

 

[TouchdownTom]

Saying it’s just first game jitters is trying to cope when it’s the other team’s first game on the road but they don’t have the same jitters

 

[HuskerBruce81]

Kong might get his wish if we lose this game it’s not out of the realm Rhule is gone

If we were to lose this game Rhule getting **** canned should be everybody's wish.

Fair point – the Ohio staff is very seasoned…

 

[4plateBencher]

Refs letting Ohio hold a lot early on. Once they stop that the Huskers will take over.

 

[RBigredMax1]

Additionally we aren’t running out there with a bunch of freshman. We got dudes who have been there done that.

Third new defensive scheme in 4 years at Nebraska is inexcusable

 

[orclover11]

did you miss the first play from scrimmage?

Fortunately the first play from scrimmage doesn't matter.

 

[Champs 70-71-94-95-97]

You have to at least appreciate the consistency though…

 

[RedMyMind2.0]

Fortunately the first play from scrimmage doesn't matter.

It does. It lead to a short TD

 

[DerHusker]

OOPS!

 

[Pennsyhuskers]

So far we look like the same team from last year

 

[meo1960]

The consistency...of inconsistency.

True but I’m not ready to jump to extreme conclusions 20 minutes into the season

 

[HUSKERFAN66]

Their qb is legit

 

[regionsdoc]

We just don't have enough NIL money to compete with the likes of Ohio

I’d love to know Ohio’s NIL budget. This is objective proof that Rhule is just a terrible coach.

 

[orclover11]

Their qb is legit

Can we trade qbs...looks like the Ohio one is playing for free.

 

[bmb81664]

Nick Poulus will win three Heisman trophies.

 

[4plateBencher]

Yep they been holding #1 all game now he's coming.

 

[RBigredMax1]

So far we look like the same team from last year

Have you not taken note of the new uniforms?

 

[The_Guy_Behind_The_Guy_Behind_The_Guy]

Third new defensive scheme in 4 years at Nebraska is inexcusable

Tony White left on his own. Butler didn’t pan out. So a third defensive scheme had to be installed unfortunately

 

[TouchdownTom]

So far we look like the same team from last year

The same offense that scores on the first drive every game and then disappears the rest of the game is sadly back

 

[Zeke Husker]

True but I’m not ready to jump to extreme conclusions 20 minutes into the season

It isn’t an extreme conclusion. Many times what you see is what you’ll get. Took me a long time to accept that but a year ago showed me that it’s true.

 

[RBigredMax1]

Frustrating knowing Carter is maybe our worst TE blocker and he’s in blocking on a critical 3rd down.

 

[19Football19]

So far we look like the same team from last year

Yup. Except a year older. This team is all SR’s with little mid 3* depth. Let that sink in.
