1ST HALF GAME THREAD!

No push f..k!

 

[jmliehr]

LOL at everyone grasping at straws and blaming the officials. It’s a talent and coaching deficit, nothing else.

 

[RBigredMax]

EJ making plays … no reason to bring him in 2 series in a row

 

[UNCHUSKER]

The fact that Gifford starts as laughable. Slow doesn’t begin to describe him

 

[jteten]

First time we’ve had a QB with arm talent like this and we just can’t seem to throw the forward pass. Confounding.

 

[Walleye79]

Well Nebraska needed a perfect clean game. They made a few mistakes. But they can beat both refs and Ohio State

 

[schuele]

Single penalties kill, or enliven drives. Officials know this and control wins & losses. I've seen the evidence over & over.

Nah, the idea that the Big Ten protects its conference darlings is all a big myth!

 

[RBigredMax]

LOL at everyone grasping at straws and blaming the officials. It’s a talent and coaching deficit, nothing else.

Both things can be true

 

[Pennsyhusker]

That’s exactly why you go for it. We won’t beat OSU playing field position

You also don't beat them by giving them a short field. It was 4th and 2 or less but who is confident we could run for that first down? Not me. And that means a pass. But we have not been good at that on 4th down either. The defense had been playing well. Rhule made the right call.

 

[TarheelHuskerFan]

This game is going well for us. We’re keeping it close. They are far more talented and at home. If the offense can contribute we can keep it respectable

 

[Pennsyhusker]

We need a big play on offense. Hopefully we can complete a long ball on this drive...

 

[NebChicago]

Let’s ride EJ not DD. Also where is Rhamir?

 

[weiddj]

Both things can be true

Yea, both BIG refs are awful. But or WR crew is so much worse than OSU it’s crazy.

 

[Baxter48]

Satt had a better scheme last year than this year

 

[Huskers123456]

For the love of God. Throw it down field! It's maddening.

 

[Pennsyhusker]

Only down 7-0 at the end of the first. If we can somehow manage a drive here and score we can make this interesting.

That’s why our offensive coordinator gets paid $1.4M per year, to find the right play call that gives us a chance for success.

We likely wouldn’t have converted. My point is we punted and played field position and they just drove 93 yards for a TD no problem

Hurt. Inactive for today.

 

[We_USE_To_Be_Good]

2nd quarter last week the game got away from us....gotta do something this week

 

[Sodakred]

Anyone really that bummed about 7-0 after one quarter? Especially after the first series?

 

[dinglefritz]

Yes he is. It’d be nice to see us start playing some younger players and process some of these older guys out

I love MJ Sherman but he constantly gets sucked in and stuck inside allowing teams to bounce runs outside their left tackle.

 

[MargotDeeper]

Fify. FIRE EVERYONE!

 

[Husker4real]

Nebraska is going to be shut out today.

 

[RedMyMind]

refs - "it would be shame if that play was called back"

 

[jteten]

Hard to tell if we have schemed poorly on offense when execution is horrendous. Can’t block on the inside or outside. Can catch either. Really just gross offensively.

 

[BugsAreQualityProtein]

Satt had a better scheme last year than this year

Some of that was TO’s scheme, so it makes sense.

 

[RBigredMax]

For the love of God. Throw it down field! It's maddening.

It’s crazy - since Purdue there’s been 0 attempt to go deep.

 

[DerHusker]

LETS GO HUSKERS!!!

 

[Sodakred]

Moving Raiola around is encouraging

 

[Walleye79]

LOL at everyone grasping at straws and blaming the officials. It’s a talent and coaching deficit, nothing else.

Well you pick and choose what you read obviously. I've seen that all morning. But lol at you for cherry picking what you read

 

[DerHusker]

GREAT SCOTT THAT WAS CLOSE!!!

 

[RBigredMax]

Ben Scott. Thank you!!!!!!

 

[Sodakred]

Our receivers are “interesting”

 

[huskerdrb]

The fact that Gifford starts as laughable. Slow doesn’t begin to describe

Gifford is very good against the run game. He bit on the wrong route. Rather have him than not.

 

[RBigredMax]

Nebraska is going to be shut out today.

Nope

 

[DerHusker]

JUST A LITTLE PASS INTERFERENCE

 

[MargotDeeper]

Nice effort Banks. Go stand by your coach, yeah, the one that looks like a 6th grader.

 

[Joedaly]

Leave Sat in the locker room at half

 

[Sodakred]

Rhule ripping Neyor. What about his coach?

 

[Pennsyhusker]

woo hoo! Raiola baby!!
