This ^^^^^^^ iowa is the fake id of college football in every facet except special teams. They played one team in the top 50 for total offense, Tennessee. PSU was 53rd and Michigan was 67th. The bigten west was truly a division of midgets and it’s embarrassing that Nebraska couldn’t put a decent offense on the field and compete in such a crappy division.
I’m saying that a football team is a team and all three phases need to be there and iowa and Nebraska defenses both benefited from playing crappy offenses. The trash fan base of iowa thinks they are an average offense away from a conference title and I say BS. It’s similar to the false narrative iowa scum say about Big12 teams having no defense.
I coached FB for like 20 years.
Michigan only scored 26 points and Michigan scored 27 beating Bama..
Michigan called the most openly conservative game it could and still scored that much.
That reflected more on how terrible ioway offense was..
Overrated as far as ranking go? Probably.
So did we not have a top 20 defense that had to prop up what was a historically bad offense just to pull out a few wins? Posters here want to bitch about me calling out a historically bad offense, but then ridicule what was a legitimate top 20 defense. This board has gotten as bad as Husker Max.
Exactly. No need to show your cards when the other team has no chance to score
We played in the Big 10 West. Our stats were a little skewed.
They had to be conservative. They weren’t use to guessing what the defense signaled in.
Then how do you explain Michigan scoring almost twice as many points against us?
We’re on the same page, the majority of Nebraska fans post the reality of where Nebraska is currently while iowa fans post their delusional ideas of where they’d like to think their program is currently. That’s the problem I’ve always had with iowa scum. They truly believe the next season will be the season they repeat their historic 1958 season.
Okay, feel free to shit on a vastly improved defense and also the guys who are currently on our roster who are above the 85 who you can't even name but you can shit on.
You're losing it. The pressure is getting to you. Read my first post where I said the D was vastly improved.
Majority of them knew their offense is a $&it show.. Presently their crossing their fingers that McNamara isn’t a china doll again next season and a step up in offensive play calling from another OC..We’re on the same page, the majority of Nebraska fans post the reality of where Nebraska is currently while iowa fans post their delusional ideas of where they’d like to think their program is currently.

We didn’t have the trenches that Iowa does. We also don’t have a QB that challenges the defense.
True, however, iowa is not nearly as close to a conference championship game win as their fans think. When it comes to Nebraska football I’ve never met a decent iowa fan, my dislike for them will not be swayed.
What juggernaut offenses did the vaunted Blackshirts go against last season… But the Blackshirts are back!
Well you're wrong, again. And if you think the Big 10 isn't the best defensive conference, you're also wrong. If the 85 limit isn't a problem, then fine, name names of who isn't a problem to be left off of it.
B1G also the worst offense conference statistically in the country this year..
Never said I had a problem, but it's a relevant discussion point. Who are we taking off scholarship or getting rid of to get to 85?
I don’t see where it’s relevant that you need to know since your not on the staff that makes those decisions..
Why does it matter? It will be some combination of former walk-on's, 5th or 6th year seniors, or portal additions.
lol, gosh yes. Our defense was laughable. Migh 3rd stringers scored at will. OSU would put 60 on us with a bad QB. Bad for them. Our defense looks like they run in sand. And they’re old. Wait until after next year when 7 or 8 starters leave with no depth. Ugly few years.
None really.
I see it as very relevant. This is a Nebraska football discussion board, is it not? We talk about recruiting and on the field results, and no doubt, there's a lot of speculation involved with all of those things. We're interested in who will be on the team next year and who will be on the field, right? That's why we follow recruiting, isn't it?
He’s tried so hard not to out himself as an iowa turd, but they can’t hide that crap smell for long.
