I’d rather Martin attempt a return and muff the dam punt then default to a fair catch every time. Can we please have the next coach try to win dam games vs playing scared to do something

******** fair catch. Damn it guys come on! He had plenty of room to run with that ball. Go back and watch Nebraska under Osborne/Solich. We rarely, rarely, rarely ever fair caught the ball. We just gave up ten yards at least of field position and backed us up to the 10. That really boils my bum.
Punt returns can be a great help to an offense. It's a shame that we don't try it..

Exactly what I was thinking. Mickey didn’t play to win last week, the week before and appears not today. Once a fan of MJ, hope he gets the hell out of Lincoln now.
So why do you think Mickey isn't playing to win? You are saying he doesn't know what he doing as a coach and doesn't know what to do to win?

Burn it all down. Mickey included. That is just piss, piss, piss poor coaching. if it were a one time thing I would not say anything. But this has been a pattern now for five damn years.
What? Are we talking about the last punt that Oliver fair caught? The coverage, 2 guys, ran right by him by 10 yards because he signaled fair catch. What was he supposed to do? Help me understand.

Grant is not making 1 cut and go.. he's regressed this year.. Why does our RB coach get a pass when all the rb's seem to have gotten worse.

Whoever is the next offensive line coach has their work cut out for them. Every passing play looks like a disaster waiting to happen.

When your injured QB runs 13 yds into contact on 3rd and 15 at mid-field, you go for it on 4th down. You ain’t gonna win the game if you don’t score.

Sad times when the Mayhem and Fansville commercial are far more entertaining than your actual games…

He’s playing conservative. He passed up a 4th and short, then didn’t even try to drawl them offsides on a hard count. It’s cold. Chances to get the D to jump go up.

Then the play calling on offense has be as brutal as I’ve seen. Like he’s just trying not to keep his defense from being hung out to dry. Almost like he doesn’t believe they can do anything and just doesn’t want D to give up 40+

He’s got a shot here. Let’s see if he understands we have nothing to lose…

Edit: what a joke

They ain't gonna win the game if they give Wisconsin great field position. And with our OL, that's likely what would happen.

I though the same. These two announcers are cold and bored and just want to get out of Lincoln as fast as they can. Boring game.
Robert Griffin is on the game so its just a matter of time before he makes some inappropriate reference about some dudes dong or some pretty girl in the crowd. BTW, he just said the last play was "anti-climattic". Pretty sure thats not a word.

How can the announcers say we should have gone for that after watching our OL play for a quarter?

And this is why Mickey should have gone for it. What is there to lose at this point? Does he think our defense would hold them to a 3 and out and bottle them up deep in their own territory?
