2ND HALF GAME THREAD!

Great call by Read. Jump offsides on the PAT so you bait them into going for 2, which you know they won't get. He's playing chess while everyone else is playing checkers!
Riley isn't going to get fired, but some of his coaches should. Again, getting beat by Iowa isn't the end of the world, but getting blown out by them is a disaster and Riley, in the end, has to answer for it. We'll see what he does in the off season.
If this were saturday and there were other games worth watching, I'd have turned it off after the last overthrow.
Sigh, well Iowa is just the better team today. '
Yeah I wonder about that. Is Tommy making that decision to throw long or is it designed to be a long pass? If Tommy is making that decision, I blame the coaches for even allowing him the ability TO make that decision.
Losing last year to Purdue is more than enough reason. But, "its his first year, waaa waa waaa, sniffle sniffle." Fine, i get it. But this is inexcusable. IoWa 2 years in a row, this one a blow out!!!!! IoWa shouldn't even smell our jocks, and they are looking like a top 5 team against us. B.U.R.N.I.T.D.O.W.N
Lol at the thought of Riley canning Banker. Get real
9-3, best win over????wyoming.
Until we have a coach who believes in bringing in the best coaches, not his friends, NU will never matter.
Eichorst stated very plainly that who we beat and the type and manner of the losses was the main reason Pelini was fired.
Eichorst should be nervous, this is Groundhog Year all over-
I don;t think anyone should be fired beyond Bruce Read. Iowa has still had just 3 plays this game that have actually done anything. They just REALLY hurt. That's not coaching. It's not executing and a lack of talent.
Bruce Read should be fired because special teams have been an absolute disaster two years in a row beyond Drew Brown and Sam Foltz.
Riley has had exactly one of these games. Pelini had like 12
Why not can Banker and Read? You think Belichick would even blink at firing assistants that aren't getting it done? We have a high standard for excellence and as soon as we accept mediocrity we're Iowa! Demand excellence
Right back at you 'only 3 plays have hurt us'. You mean the 3 plays that accounted for more yards than they've averaged their last 3 games total????
Lol! 500 ball to.......nobody!!!! Lol this is great. Our only 2 pass plays are lateral screens or a 500 balls that are up for grabs.
I hate to say it, but this is a poorly coached team. Our offensive line has some pretty decent athletes on it. So why can they not block for shit? Our linebackers are fast and athletic, but Banker or Bray have them playing way out of position taking bad angles. And our new rugby style tackling looks more like flag football tackling. Special teams?? Hahahahaha!!!! Snort. Hahahaha!!!! F$ck.
I have supported Riley all year. But guess what? Pelini is gone and has been for two years now. We have enough talent across the board that with proper coaching we should not be getting blown out by Iowa. OSU I could swallow hard and accept. But this?

It's really interesting to hear that our Captain in Tommy isn't even talking to the receivers when they're on the sidelines. I wonder if Ryker playing pretty well last week started a rift with this team when it comes to Tommy and the receivers.
I've said for years if Riley won't make changes when needed he doesn't care about Nebraska.
Bros before Nebraska
Because our running game has been non-existent and we're down by 23 points.
some of you need to pay attention to the situation before you post.
Iowa's had a ton of injuries this year. And they lost Kulick and Bazata during the 1st quarter today.
This is his second year. So you were saying it before he was hired here? Or just before there was any reason to say it?
What are you drinking? The players are doing that to themselves over pursuing and our O line is NOT very athletic other than Gates.
Starting 3 walk ons OL would suggest we have terrible athletes on OL.
