Onside kick

[Husker.Wed.]

I predict NU manages to pull ahead of the Gophers late in the third Q by kicking a FG to go up something like 24-21. THEN....Rhule surprises Minny with an onside kick and we RECOVER it. Then start the 4th Q with a 9-minute TD scoring drive run exclusively out of the I-Formation to put it away. I mean hot damn, everything this staff does anymore comes up roses, so we might as well take some chances in games

We don’t need to pull any punches to beat Minn or anyone else on our pillow soft schedule

Would there be a more telling sign that it’s been lifted. But agree with kong. Rhule won’t be needing any of that Tom foolery

I’ll call it right here, NU by 14+. Feel free to roast me 2 months from now.

 

[Mrs HuskerHusaria]

If an onside kick is needed let's just call it curtains. We've seen this movie before.

We get the onside kick because according to Frank, the curse is over.

I hope so I do worry that Minnesota will have more than adequate enough time to prepare for the 3-3-5 having played against it in bowl game and then all the extra prep in August.

Did TO ever call an onside kick that wasn’t obvious based on the game situation?

 

[RBigredMax]

If Rhule pulls a Frost - calling an onside kick while up - It will be the first question mark I would have with him. With Frost it was the final question mark I had of him.

Don’t think so.

Anyone else think that stadium will be 50%+ red?

Instead of gimmicks let's hope we see the following.
"
Tony White's defense confuses and harasses the QB.
Sims make the defense account for him on every play.
Fidone can't be contained by the back seven.
We make 75% of FG attempts.

So, you think coach Rhule is gonna let the Big Dipper call the plays in the second half of the Minnesota game? Seems like an odd strategy, but then again I’m not plumber, so what do I know… 🤷‍♂️

Look how good the onside kick worked for us last year. Kick the ball out of the end zone and line up on defense.

That onside kick. I don't think my jaw ever did heal completely after hitting the floor.
