Most disappointing player of the year

long snapper

 

[redwine65]

I thought we used to have a dedicated long snapper

 

[headcard]

Gifford came into the year with a lot of hype and really struggled. Same with Fidone.

 

[oldjar07]

He was 22 of 33 for 199 yards last night in frigid temperatures. Had we kicked the FG and not muffed the punt his effort would have won the game.

Dylan has been like checkdown Sam Keller lately. High completion rate, but that style of play doesn't win football games.

Top 4 for sure.

 

[meo1960]

long snapper

Whoever snaps the field goals.

Someone no one should know, made sure everyone knew he was horrible at his job.

Maybe it was even more than 1 player?

 

[kakdawg]

Need better skill position players

Need better skill players AND Dylan has to throw a more accurate deep ball. Especially when guys have a step or two on the DB. Don't lob everything up there and give the DB a chance to make up ground. Throw it out there and put it on him.


Holla

Maybe Benhart. Rhule needed to help him on Friday and he did not.

Had no desire to catch that ball based on where he was on the field.

Interesting

I don’t know what to expect from LSU after this season. Obviously they have better talent than us.

BC is a bad matchup IMO.

most disappointing… Gifford and it ain’t close

vs LSU is a good matchup most of the time. They always have a truly ridiculous amount of opt-outs.

Plus who knows how hard those kids will want to play for Kelly after 3 straight weeks of ass chewing

In hindsight we should build a statue of Pelini on 9th street

Make sure it’s realistic.

It’s hard to convey flying spittle on a statue. But you could exaggerate the vein in his forehead that was ready to pop at any moment

He was starting his 12th game last night. After game 5 the freshman excuse is gone. He needs to hit those deep balls and know where the pressure is coming from. He coughed it up twice last night and was lucky to recover one of them.

All qbs miss deep balls and the fans never know if the route was correct or run hard or disrupted in some way. We literally handed Iowa the ball inside their 5 and missed a chip-shot field goal because we still can't snap the ball in the last game of the season. Both special teams mistakes for a guy who was supposed to be gone by now. Dylan did what a freshman should do, on the road against a good defense, in the cold at night...except for the last fumble.

Neyor was bad, but I honestly was duped into thinking that a year ago, the team was a SERVICEABLE QB away from fielding an 8-9 win squad. Our 5-star freshman didn’t hit a WR in stride on a deep pass all year…missed a WIDE open TE in the endzone against Illinois to win… I just expected darts, and what we got was a lot of underthrown and overthrown passes.

Ok,so you don’t watch the games. At least Nebraska games.

 

[HuskerO]

If he hits the deep ball we wouldn't be reliant on the fg. And we didn't muff a punt.

Bruscini had a 22 yard punt to the 50 yard line in the 2nd quarter. Just hurt field position after Iowa had to punt again.

Not sure if that's the muffed punt he's talking about...

DR

 

[leodisflowers]

Gifford, Transfer WRs, Fidone, Butler, Lenhardt, Princewill…… shit. It’s the entire team.

Buchini shanked 2 straight

But I’m guessing the muffed punt he’s talking about was the actual muffed punt that gave them their first points from the 4 yard line

Sadly he never lived up to they hype

He was good when the pressure was off

top notch

 

[salsa red]

Another disappointment is we were running it at will on that drive. Make a first down on a run then pass 3 times in a row and punt. Could have run to kick a field goal til time ran out.

Late game strategy is not Matt's forte. A 2-10 record says so.
