Spring football

Why do you get so worked up about hypothetical results? You are literally making excuses, in March, for losing a game to Cincinnati that is 5 months away. Playing in front of a crowd and a meaningless intra squad scrimmage, where the 3rd and 4th stringers will play more than the starters, that is how you think the Cincinnati game will be won or lost?

I see your Dabo Swiney and raise you a Ryan Day. He is 70-10 and won a title and played for another, has never finished outside the top 10 and he isn't playing a traditional scrimmage to end the spring.
Ryan did it because they played 16 games. Did we?

Texas, Michigan St, LSU, Oklahoma, West Virginia, Missouri, NC St, Florida St and USC, in addition to Ohio St and Nebraska.

And for the record, I didn't play any games. The Nebraska football team played 13 though. And do you know Ryan Day personally? Calling him Ryan like yall are tippin' back some suds. ha ha ha
 
Shall I list all the new pieces, including coaches? Or can you figure out why I posted what I did?
I think we are all interested on your early take of us losing to Cincinnati.

Yes... OC ain't new.

DC just coached in a ball game and isn't new.

Excuses
This team is not going to come out of the gate and light teams on fire. If you haven’t watched Nebraska Football and their first game the last two decades, then you’ve been in a hobbit hole. Now, add in all these new pieces (players, coaches, scheme) and there’s a “chance” we will lose to Cincinnati.

And I never said we “were” going to lose to Cincinnati, I said “I could see us losing.”

I could see you needing to take a hike.
 
having a offense and special teams I think will bring about more wins....been years since we had either

I don't expect them to be as good as they will be late in the season.

But this will not be the same offense as last year and we have more time to learn our offense.

Struggling out the gate is unacceptable.
 
I do question our backfield, as it will be the same as last year… Buford, Hartzog, Wright, and Singleton. How often did they get beat last year.? And the guy coaching them is now our D-coordinator…?? We do have a newcomer, maybe he can replace Hartzog?

I hope it's not the same...lol

We hired Addison Williams from UCF guy as our DBs coach.

Been years since we had a real coach. With .500 Matt, don't get your hopes up. However, It is Matt's 3rd year and magic will happen. That is what we have heard for three straight years. Magic year 3. Apparently that is why he was hired. Prove it, Matt Hopefully he does prove it with the easiest schedule in 29 years. Will he ? You know how this will play out ( well, some of you know.) 1-2 years, back to square one. Hopefully the dipshit administration will learn at some point. Been waiting 24 years, and I am guessing I will wait 1-2 years more before anything resembling a football team will be on the field. Oh well.

You were the same ninkimpoop that said last year was the easiest schedule and what is this “WE” crap.

Go back to the Clarkeyes board.

Chuck every year can not be the easiest schedule. It’s impossible. It seems you say every offseason is this year’s the easiest schedule. You move the goal post way too much to be taken seriously.

Blye Hill and the portal kid from Idaho will compete with Ceyair Wright at corner and I don’t think we will see Buford or Hartzog at corner unless there is injury. The portal kid from Georgia looks to be a safety. My question is which DBs are they looking at for the Rover psn? If Javin Wright didn’t have the blood issue, he would be ideal. Big rangy kid who has played DB and LB, is athletic and has a nose for the football.
 
Imagine us no better than last year except special teams. I look forward to not being pissed off or embarrassed after nearly every special teams play

I think we will be better on offense and special teams but worse on defense. How will that play out I have no clue. However that plays I don't think playing in a spring game or not playing a spring game will factor in.

Next years schedule is looking pretty rough on paper. Tennesee should be pretty damn good. Oh wait...

We were never playing Tennessee in 2025 . The games were 26and 27 . But as a POS Iowa fan you probably didn’t realize that before you posted and made yourself look even dumber.

You are incorrect with what you are posting Chuck. I know you are a troll but at least present facts.
I wasn't talking about THIS years schedule. The one that starts in 5 months. I was talking about NEXT years schedule (2026). Then again, I don't really give a shit anyway.

I agree with most of what you're saying, but people don't want to live in negative land, and me either for that matter (it is so easy to do with Nebraska football the past decade.. yes, it's nearly a decade now of rock bottom). I hope Matt is successful, and I think he will be this year, but it will be his last at NU. He will take another job at the end of the year I predict. I think Nebraska's future really changes after Tom leaves us and some enterprising young coach rebuilds a run dominant identity. Until then, grin and bear it seems to be the best way to cope.

Then give us more TV cuts of QBs throwing passes, WRs an TEs catching passes, our top RBs running against our top D. For heaven's sake, give us something for a fix for our addiction to get us by until the end of August.
Can’t do it, dingle

Too risky

This would have been my sober post. You are totally right.
