Frost just said he’s a “Sunday guy”.He’s a stud. Wish he would have redshirted his freshman year, feels like he is just getting started.
I think it’s downfield blocking plus he’s added a little spice to his game.something happened during the northwestern game, where ogzigbo started cutting better and running north south faster. or maybe the oline just started blocking better.
Riley utilized him so well the last three years.He’s a stud. Wish he would have redshirted his freshman year, feels like he is just getting started.

Ozigbo’s poor performances in the past had nothing to do with coaches. Sometimes, believe it or not, it’s on the players.Riley utilized him so well the last three years.
WRONG.Ozigbo’s poor performances in the past had nothing to do with coaches. Sometimes, believe it or not, it’s on the players.
I noticed on that NW game that many times he was able to escape the first defender who contacted him.something happened during the northwestern game, where ogzigbo started cutting better and running north south faster. or maybe the oline just started blocking better.
He's like a completely different guy the past few weeks. I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it. He seems to have gotten so much faster too. Major props to him.

WRONG.
Langsdick was the problem.
I’ve said it all along. Langsdick didn’t want Ozigbo in his offense.Play calling under Langsdorf was so blah and predictable. Combine lame play calling with last year's poor OLine play and you get a bunch of complaints about who ever you have at RB.
I strongly believe Ozigbo has been the same back the entire time he's been here. He's a bigger guy so naturally you don't expect him to have a burst and come with some wiggle but he does. He also runs with crazy determination.
Sidenote:
As a Freshman: Remember Ozigbo taking a backseat to Jordan Stevenson, the star RB of his class (Stevenson quit)
As a Sophomore: Remember Ozigbo falling behind incoming Freshman Bryant for 3rd string
As a Junior: Remember Ozigbo being 3rd string his junior year behind Bryant and Wilbon, at times going entire games with no carries at all
As a Senior: Remember Ozigbo again taking a backseat to another newcomer, Greg Bell (Bell quit after supposedly deserving the starting spot)
He has been underestimated his entire career here including initially by this staff. His isn’t a burner but his speed is more than adequate.
His greatest attribute is vision - he knows where the crease is or is going to be.
He’s a damn good receiver as well
And he’s a good blocker. Remember how he was the only one to lay Tennessee’s Barnett on his ass!He has been underestimated his entire career here including initially by this staff. His isn’t a burner but his speed is more than adequate.

Notice my pic in the OP... #2 has the angel and is ahead of him yet Ozigbo blows bye him for the touchdown!The clocked him at 23 last night
I hated the idea of him lining up out wide, but he's done a solid job catching the ball. Ozigbo has always been a decent back but this year he's becoming a good back.He has been underestimated his entire career here including initially by this staff.

It’s very hard for you to give praise isn’t it?I hated the idea of him lining up out wide, but he's done a solid job catching the ball. Ozigbo has always been a decent back but this year he's becoming a good back.
We're a 1-6 team and that makes our better players look great when they're really just average or above average players. I don't know if we'd have a single player starting if they played on some of the better teams in this conference. Ozigbo's done a good job this year and some other guys have played well. That doesn't make them great players though.It’s very hard for you to give praise isn’t it?
He’s gone from decent to good...
So is ‘good’ good enough for Sundays? Frost seems to think so...

Frost has been over hyping a lot of things. Like Greg Bell "the Eel". That's not necessarily a bad thing. Ozigbo might make an NFL roster but I doubt he's going to be playing a ton on Sundays.So Frost was just being nice.
If Burkhead is doing it...Zig will as well. He reminds me of a faster BurkheadFrost has been over hyping a lot of things. Like Greg Bell "the Eel". That's not necessarily a bad thing. Ozigbo might make an NFL roster but I doubt he's going to be playing a ton on Sundays.
You may be right, and I know a coach is going to lift up his players... I do like Zig’s intangibles. He’s durable, doesn’t fumble, catches passes, blocks, and doesn’t complain.Frost has been over hyping a lot of things. Like Greg Bell "the Eel". That's not necessarily a bad thing. Ozigbo might make an NFL roster but I doubt he's going to be playing a ton on Sundays.
You are really going out on a limb there Jar. Literally 99% of the players on the field every week will probably not see "significant time" in the NFL. Zig has worked his ass off and has earned his respect among real Husker fans. I suspect you are some Iowa/UCF troll who loves to post on here because your team is boring and not worthy of following. Go away. You hanging out here is just pathetic. Go follow your "much better" program.Frost has been over hyping a lot of things. Like Greg Bell "the Eel". That's not necessarily a bad thing.

The receiver's are starting block on the perimeter. That play we ran on Ziggy's 1st TD run was out of Osborne's playbook!I think it’s downfield blocking plus he’s added a little spice to his game.
Burkhead is a much better running back. Ozigbo is not faster than Burkhead.If Burkhead is doing it...Zig will as well. He reminds me of a faster Burkhead
23mphBurkhead is a much better running back. Ozigbo is not faster than Burkhead.
But but but he's Reggie's and Mike's recruit and he's slow..........The Ozigbo detractors looking kinda stupid today.
