The announcers mentioned yesterday that Nebraska’s offensive lineman were telegraphing the plays, when it was a run they’d have their hands on the ground and when it’s a psss they didn’t, geez that a really smart oc , heck you learned that in jr high football playing defense the coach would say watch the lineman lots of times they will lean just a little to the right and the play would go to the right side and vise versa . Can’t believe we have that inept coaching

Tony White has a Back 7 problem

So deservedly a lot of discussion about the offensive execution, but good lord, from my seat in the south stadium, this defense has issues now that the competition has improved. Of the 20 DB’s on the roster, they can’t find just 3 suitable backups for the injured starters? Charles was awful, IMO, believe he got pulled before end of first half. S and LBs either look like they overrun the play or fail to wrap up when they seem to be in position to make the tackle. DL no longer can win the line of scrimmage when faced against decent athletes on the OL. Princewell and Williams now MIA.
Jeremiah Charles was one of Rhule's under the radar recruits. He played only one year of football in HS, and we beat out North Texas for him. His performance shouldn't have been a surprise to anyone.

They’re frost recruits who’ve been told “no thanks” by the nfl and you’re surprised they’re soft and crappy?

Find a mirror, bud. That’s on you.
I’m with you on Frost recruits being soft and crappy.

It’s the elephant in the room that most people want to talk about. The effort is just not there. When there is ANY adversity they just fold. No toughness whatsoever. No will to win.

There are coaches that need to be on the chopping block but also a ton of starters not good enough and not even trying. They need to be sat down and have honest talks with

If we can’t cover with 7, what happens if the blitz doesn’t get home? I think white is playing the long game. Make teams go 10-15 plays and hope they make a mistake to get us off the field.

The opponent also matters. UCLA is a quick throw offense. Tough to have an effective blitz if they’re going 3 step drop and getting the ball out. Ideally we could go man, press them at the line and blitz. But I don’t think we have the guys to play press
If you can't get to the QB before the quick throw then get the arms/hands up.
