1st HALF BOWL GAME THREAD!

[Rocky Mtn Husker]

Geez I could have run that one in. Where's our D today.

 

[barney44]

what do you want them to do? he's ten times a better athlete than anyone in our front 7.

We may as well just give up and play defeatist then. They are not playing to contain Dobbs rather they are trying to chase the guy down instead..

 

[bmb81664]

How is their pass interference when the ball is tipped?

 

[regionsdoc]

gonna score anyway what a letdown

Just pathetic....

 

[starhusker]

This game is like watching a JV vs Varsity game

 

[nebcountry]

dang

SOMETIMES ON THIRD AND LONG IT'S FUN TO STAND NEAR THEIR RECEIVERS

This.

 

[RealHusker]

That last drive by TENN is the low point of the season. Disgraceful.

 

[schuele]

Might have been a 10-point swing there, with the Huskers unable to make a tackle on 3rd and long. Could have gotten the ball and at least killed the clock, maybe gotten a shot at a FG.

 

[tro80]

AANNDD once again our DE goes inside and gives up the run around the end.

 

[mwulf]

ball was tipped on the PI call

 

[Snickerdoodle70]

Yo

u were saying?

Really? Stop using hindsight. Makes a person look ridiculous.

 

[cubsker]

We may as well just give up and play defeatist then. They are not playing to contain Dobbs rather they are trying to chase the guy down instead..

they can't do either. we're really bad. there's not much more to say. sad, i know.

 

[huskerbaseball13]

Geez I could have run that one in. Where's our D today.

Today? This is how we look against anyone with a pulse.

 

[cubsker]

really, we should be down way more than we are.

 

[donahues17]

Will someone let our DBs (especially Jackson) know that yiu have been taught since your were 7 years old you cant tackle something you cant see. Keep your head up and look where your target is.

 

[RealHusker]

Embarrassing half of football by Nebraska. Absolutely embarrassing.

stupid you are. as is your idiot comment.

 

[TheLiberalHunter]

I'm assuming our OTs understand that "Tackle" is the name of their position and NOT what they are supposed to let the other guy do to our QB(?)

Maybe we just have a semantics issue.

 

[schuele]

Same place they were for the Iowa game - which we totally woulda won with a healthy QB!

 

[bmb81664]

One more time, how is it PI when the ball is tipped?

 

[NUpride]

There's no desire to win, this team is out of shape and not prepared

 

[cubsker]

"we are playing a good football team"

 

[schuele]

I'm assuming our OTs understand that "Tackle" is the name of their position and NOT what they are supposed to let the other guy do to our QB(?)

Maybe we just have a semantics issue.

It's more likely that they're using the alternative definition of "offensive."

 

[Rocky Mtn Husker]

Today? This is how we look against anyone with a pulse.

Yeah and it's getting really old. At least show some life, some desire, like you want to play the freakin' game.

 

[keilwitzg]

A few pointers:
*Our defense has been on the field all game.
*Tennessee's Defense has been bad the last part of the regular season, but that was due to injuries and they have most of those players back.
*We can't win if our O can't get into a rhythm.

 

[Bugeater]

Same place they were for the Iowa game - which we totally woulda won with a healthy QB!

Could a healthy Tommy really overcome that much?

 

[rchrisreade]

Tentative. Uncertain. Uninterested. In some ways it seems like they just want to fast forward through the game and get it over. Losing happens. But hard to keep me interested when they do not seem interested.

Glad we didnt play Vandy today.

 

[TFrazier]

And the coaching staff is going to be able to go out and convince difference makers to sign with Nebraska? Good luck with that.

 

[cubsker]

I'm close to 2012 levels with Pelini at this point. Pretty sure I've seen enough, but a small chance it gets better.

 

[rchrisreade]

And the coaching staff is going to be able to go out and convince difference makers to sign with Nebraska? Good luck with that.

If you are Robert Beal and watched Georgia show heart to come back and a cohesive defensive scheme, why are you going to leave home to be part of this defense?

 

[Snickerdoodle70]

N

stupid you are. as is your idiot comment.

Seriously? What about my comment was "stupid?"

 

[mwulf]

really mad i didnt bet as much as i could when it was -3

 

[regionsdoc]

Nebraska is a program that is slightly better than Minnesota and northwestern. No more, no less. It's painful to admit. A healthy tommy Armstrong doesn't make our D look any better in the first half (before they get gassed)

 

[TFrazier]

If you are Robert Beal and watched Georgia show heart to come back and a cohesive defensive scheme, why are you going to leave home to be part of this defense?

Why even come on the visit?

 

[teals]

Time to cut the program

 

[CameronKrazie86]

Today? This is how we look against anyone with a pulse.

I don't like being negative but this is so true at least defensively. It is pretty amazing to see how many bad offenses they've played this year that have hidden how good or bad a defense it really is. This was a pretty eye opening 1st half as it looks like the defense still has a ways to go.

 

[BornNBredRed]

Fyfe is not the problem all.
