Good for him.Tearing it up! Oregon State leading Oregon 34-31 in the fourth.
He was one of those soft Riley kids that wasn’t tough enough for Frostyball, right?

He looks pretty pedestrian to me.Uh oh. Oldjar is fuming.
I was JUST going to post this same topic lol. Yeah he looks like more of the passer that Frosts stupid offense requires. Passer first, but solid runner. Hmmmmmm...
Adrian looked good today, but couldn’t overcome bad snaps and the blocking issues. If he plays like this the rest of the season, you can see why Frost went with Adrian.
But that’s a big IF.
You aren't wrong.Correct me if Im wrong but wasnt Gebbia playing quite well in camp and was very well respected by his teammates but Frost chose Martinez because it was his guy and they felt he had more upside.
Not saying Martinez is the better QB. Just saying he played well today, and he also played well as a freshman. If he can keep up his level of play, it makes Frost’s decision more understandable.uh no. Gebbia is a much better QB than Adrian will ever be

I don’t disagree. I was encouraged by the downfield throws. That’s something Luke has really struggled with.Martinez was efficient today I’ll give him that. He made 2-3 really good throws. The rest of his throws were very easy throws that should have a very high completion % (swing pass to receiver, RB out of backfield, etc.).
Another positive is he didn’t turn it over.
He’s a game manager at best imo
He did not play well. Line gave him plenty of time on a number of drop backs and he was afraid to pull the trigger. They showed a few replays of guys running wide open on those plays.Not saying Martinez is the better QB. Just saying he played well today, and he also played well as a freshman.

None of us were worried about Gebbia two years ago. It's what has happened since then that is completely puzzling. How can someone have their best year as a freshman?
Looks like he may be out for awhile with a leg injury.I'm happy for Gebbia if he does well. Unfortunately though it's a mute point since he's not in Lincoln and we stink up the field.
I guess I am used to AM looking indecisive all the time, and today he wasn’t that guy. To say he didn’t play well I think is an overstatement, considering what I’ve seen out of him since the beginning of his sophomore year.He did not play well.

Just because he didn’t throw any egregious interceptions doesn’t mean he displayed good QB play.

You are correctedCorrect me if Im wrong but wasnt Gebbia playing quite well in camp and was very well respected by his teammates but Frost chose Martinez because it was his guy and they felt he had more upside.
Wishful thinking.Nebraska win 75% of their games if they were in the PAC-12
The answer is : Mario VerduscoNone of us were worried about Gebbia two years ago. It's what has happened since then that is completely puzzling. How can someone have their best year as a freshman?
Jonathan Smith was a Washington Assistant who took over the Oregon St job in 2018. Like Frost he was a former QB for Oregon St and also like Frost his three year record is not good, 9-19. Unlike Frost he makes $2.4m/yr and his team seems to be getting progressively better as time goes on. He was 2-10 his first year, 5-7 last year and is now 2-2 this year with his win tonight over 15th ranked Oregon. Also unlike Frost, his teams play solid fundamental football (at least the games I watched last year and this) and the losses they have seem to be due to a talent gap, not a coaching gap.Oregon State is better than Nebraska
I agree with your assessment of his play. The difference is you’re satisfied with it.I guess I am used to AM looking indecisive all the time, and today he wasn’t that guy. To say he didn’t play well I think is an overstatement, considering what I’ve seen out of him since the beginning of his sophomore year.
Clearly he wasn’t that guy... so he didn’t find all the open receivers. He also didn’t throw any interceptions, completed 85% of his passes, and ran for good yardage against a good defense. He played well enough, in my opinion.
Frost needs to give Smothers some snaps ASAP IMO, not to start Smothers or expect miracles but just to see if he's going to have any talent to cut the mustard. We need to know ASAP so Frost can go out and recruit a talented QB if Smothers ain't it. So far Frost has been shooting blanks in QB recruiting at Nebraska.Frost's talent evaluation skills under serious scrutiny.
