Please fvck off and stop responding to my post. I’m here to talk football not engage in your bullshit.
Pleas try to learn something, anything about football before you move on to your next screen name. Your ignorance is just sad.
Now I’m going to do something I’ve never done in my 20+ years on this board and put you on ignore because every single interaction with you is a giant waste of time.
Hartzog OUT this weekend

I heard that last sentence like Morgan Freeman was reading it out loud. 👍
Still early enough in the week for the line to move.
Their first play went for,I believe,38 yards.I don't know if it was a blown coverage but that one really hurt.
Sounds good but only exceptional people operate that way. But coaching, player leadership and all of that stuff can make a difference. I think this version of the Huskers is better at that than previous staffs. The Huskers are a little more consistent.
I really like this post and I agree with your assessment. Too many people on here revert to saying a guy is either fantastic or total garbage. In reality, coaching or about anything else is more like a bell curve. 10% of play callers are gifted, another 20% is good, 40% is average, 20% not so good (needs superior talent), and the bottom 10% awful.
Where do you think Satt ranks?
Run vertically- yes. And do it after taking the snap from under center. Make the defensive line actually be concerned about a back sprinting straight at them with momentum rather than a back standing still at the time of the fake hand off, four yards behind the line of scrimmage.
Keep running Haarberg into the game but have him take 80% of his snaps at WR or at RB. Then direct snap it to him at RB once or move him to QB and actually have him pass the ball. Seems like when Haarberg comes into the game, teams know its a QB keep.
That's what I've been thinking. Everything lined up perfectly for NU to pull off the upset and we didn't do it. Instead, Ohio State got one of those "wins" that really felt more like a "loss" to them. I didn't want to say it but that's entirely true. So now this program still needs that break through win. I think winning in any fashion against UCLA followed up by a win against USC would work.
Great post. I still think this program (NU) looks past opponents or takes them too lightly. So inexplicably, NU probably has some guys taking UCLA more lightly than Ohio State. I think the result at Indiana was in part the result of taking Indiana too lightly and looking ahead to Ohio State. It's part of what losing programs just do. Makes no sense. Matt Rhule said after Ohio State that he better play that good or better against UCLA. He's laying it out there. Hopefully, this team can shed some of that loser mentality on Saturday.
I’d say not so good. Last year we said it was QB talent level causing issues, this year it’s WR and honestly RB abilities that are questionable….meaning they don’t have enough talent. Now maybe if we had superior talent there things would still be the same, making him “awful” . At best he’s not so good
That stats don't lie. But I'll just say that Lincoln Riley hasn't exactly been coaching at lower level programs. OU in the Big 12 and USC. I think there are several better head coaches than Riley who have losing records against him. Rhule might be one of them.
I will believe that when I see Rhule beat him, hopefully this year.
And hopefully we pound Minnesota next time we see them as well.
Rhule also gets outcoached frequently in losses. At some point, you have to believe people when they show you who they are.
But those "stats" absolutely do. Fleck is 0-3 against Bert, 0-1 against Walters, 0-1 against the coach from NW. Do those "stats" prove anything? No, but probably more than comparing records against a random coach at two different schools.
And using Fleck's total career win %, when he has stayed at a school for 8 years, and comparing it to a guy that has never stayed anywhere more than 4 is also stupid. Fleck inherited a consistent 8-win team and kept them there, good for him, but that isn't exactly a tall task. Imagine what Rhule's win % would be by now if he had stayed at Baylor.
The idea that PJ Fleck is "out coaching" anyone would only be spewed by someone that doesn't know a thing about football, has an agenda, or both.
-stats are easily manipulated to tell the story you want to tell
-winning pct matters, but so does the starting point.
-It is easier for an average coach to maintain 8-9 wins a year when you take over a program that is winning 8 or so wins per game, ie Pelini regardless of what school it is.
