Official 2nd half game thread. (Still with bits of real panther)

[Champs 70-71-94-95-97]

Time to make adjustments…

 

[RBigredMax]

Good comments from Rhule on UNI being the more physical team “and that’s disappointing”. I gotta feeling the D is going to look much better in the 2nd half or we will see some new faces.

 

[The_Man_Behind_The_Man]

Haven’t seen Dowdell much

 

[Rocky Mtn Husker]

Can we yank a kid off some club soccer team and put some pads on him?

 

[Sodakred]

They had the ball for twenty minutes. That must change.

 

[GretnaShawn]

Offense looks good. Love getting Nelson and Barney TDs. Future looks bright for some young talent.

Defense doesn’t look great. But that’s not the worst thing in the world going into Illinois. Keeps the guys working hard and the coaches have something to yip at them about.

I think we’re fortunate to be up 21-3 but not being able to get 3 more at the end of the half is maddening.

alot of poor tackling, not wrapping up, bump tackles

Also the first time this year we have had an oline firing out against our defense instead of mostly backing up. Hopefully adjustments are being made.

This exactly, the bump "effort" on the tackles needs to be addressed and taken care of before the start of the 2nd half.

Our same guys last year handled it just fine. We’ll adjust and be fine. Even if it’s not this game

Jesus - blatant hold on Cam

Another night of non holding calls

 

[king_kong_]

nothing more, nothing less

fun season so far!

 

[weiddj]

Ok so this kick game…

 

[Rocky Mtn Husker]

Another night of non holding calls

Damn near every play. I don’t get the no penalty calls.

 

[BrighteRed24]

Gbayor finally checking in

 

[RedMyMind]

spy the qb

 

[TampaBaySkers]

Mobile qbs could cause us troubles this season

 

[Sodakred]

Another long drive in progress

 

[RedMyMind]

stop tackling so high and giving them 4 plus yards

 

[TampaBaySkers]

Weak late hit call

 

[Sodakred]

Nice tackle five yards out of bounds. Defense is really smoking tonight.

 

[BrighteRed24]

Good wake up call for our defense before big ten play

 

[HuskAir]

Weak late hit call

Agreed…tackle STARTED in bounds.

 

[bigboxes]

Weak late hit call

Not really. That was far out of bounds. They have to call that. Another dumb penalty.

 

[RedMyMind]

about time

 

[JohhnieSouth]

Nice tackle five yards out of bounds. Defense is really smoking tonight.

It wasn't intentional. His momentum created that mistake if you say.

 

[TampaBaySkers]

This bend don’t break defense won’t work against good teams but ok for today. Good pick

 

[bigboxes]

We'll take the INT! GO BIG RED!

 

[TruHusker]

That bailed them out. Poor throw into poor coverage.

White got antsy and started blitzing and paid the price.

 

[huntered]

nyce

 

[weiddj]

Int bailed them out- but Defense needs to step up.

 

[Baxter48]

Looks like our defense is playing against 15 my goodness the holding that is going on by uni

 

[NebChicago]

How does UNI have a kicker that can send it to the end zone and we have a guy queefing kicks to the 5

 

[TampaBaySkers]

That was a way later hit out of bounce

 

[weiddj]

Every play

 

[TampaBaySkers]

Not really. That was far out of bounds. They have to call that. Another dumb penalty.

They have to make that call? Then why no call on this play?

 

[Bruce1981]

This is nitpicking
