I'm just hoping that with 1:00 left we pick up the game winning first down.
Or
We stop Minnesota on 4th down to seal the game.
Nebraska- 24
Minnesota - 21
I just hope our offense wins the game in the 3rd so we don't have to hope our beat up D can hold on in the 4th.
I think we'll finish 7-5 with a loss to Michigan State!
YES, its categories. We are hitting near worst in nation in some at times. Penalties and such a particular loss contributor. Coach T O tracked all categories and even types of equipment for various situations. We have a special situation here and a lot of good coaches; but we have to get the talent to the right mental point.... We will be playing a lot of youth, so it could be a longer process than hoped - but we could be 6-0. Regardless, we are a train on its tracks and no backing down; most of the things that need improvement are obvious and some of its on the players. Did the D-line make it home without forcing Wisconsin to let go ? What a lousy state of no calls.The Huskers have been out gained by 360 yds in the 4 losses, are -6 in turnovers in those games, and are averaging about 25 more penalty yds in the losses. Luck isn't the only thing that needs to change.
The best way to beat Minnesota is running the ball. They might have the best secondary in the BIG. We should stick to the run, but probably won't. If we are trying to pass a lot with Tommy, things could get ugly. I'm not going to put it all on Tommy either. We need to establish the run game and not get discouraged by a 2-3 yard gain and start chucking the ball all game.I just hope our offense wins the game in the 3rd so we don't have to hope our beat up D can hold on in the 4th.
