I said this when the schedule came out a couple years ago: Why did we agree to have a conference home game to open the season in a year when we only have FOUR conference home games? At least we should have tried to move a non-conference home game to later in the season to give some balance in the schedule, rather than just three home games over the last eight.
Thanks, Eichorst.
A lot depends on quarterback play in my opinion. If it doesn’t improve, I don’t see much of a difference in the record.We have to learn how to win the close games and quit doing stupid things that cost us games. I think in 2020 there will be a bowl game but we r still a year or 2 away from competing for the west.
4 home games to start the season. Brutal back half of the schedule. Could win first 7 games. After that....?? Man up!! GBR!!
I honestly believe we turn it around big time in 2022. We’ll hover around .500 these next two years. That prediction is based on the growing pains from our staff and players as well as the brutal schedules. I think comparing our state of the program to what Kentucky was and is now is now is a good comparison. Below are Mark Stoops records at Kentucky. He literally had zero to work with and has won back-to-back bowls (Penn State & V.Tech). If Stoops can do it at a basketball school, there’s no doubt we can play for conference championships.
Year 1: 2-10
Year 2: 5-7
Year 3: 5-7
Year 4: 7-6
Year 5: 7-6
Year 6: 10-3
Year 7: 8-5
What if Frost isn't a Mark Stoops? Look who Mark Stoops has fired and hired for assistants, he's determined to make tough decisions to win.
I agree that we need to do our part in playing early-season conference games.I don’t think we can blame Eichorst on this one...
Few years back there was talk about playing early conference games to start the season..
In 2023 we open the season with Minnesota in Minneapolis..
Are we really holding up a coach who is 44-44 with only one season of more than 8 wins over his 7 years as the model? We may have just as well held on to Riley
Frost has 30 - 4 star recruits from his 3 classes under his belt. Wisconsin has 11, Iowa has 7, and Minnesota has 4 in that same time period. Plus Iowa will lose a couple underclassmen early to the draft. So those games should be wins - right???4 home games to start the season. Brutal back half of the schedule. Could win first 7 games. After that....?? Man up!! GBR!!
It’s not the quarterback making dumb penalties. The dropped passes, late hits, targeting, holding, fumbles it goes way past the quarterback. It’s a team problem.A lot depends on quarterback play in my opinion. If it doesn’t improve, I don’t see much of a difference in the record.
I agree and, frankly, improvement in Nebraska's defense is more critical than QB play,It’s not the quarterback making dumb penalties. The dropped passes, late hits, targeting, holding, fumbles it goes way past the quarterback. It’s a team problem.
But we know that they’ll be at their peak when we play them, lol.We have no clue how good most of those teams are gonna be, so there’s that.
