while we get worse as the season goes on is the Groundhog Day that has been giving around here since 2013

I watch more than Nebraska and I see teams that have gotten better have a history of success. They are usually tough teams physically and have a history of playing smart football.

Colorado improving because they've got coaches who have been there before. Where's there? All-American players playing winning football. How many on the Husker staff can you name that have played All-American quality football on a winning team?
Hate the buffs all you want, they have a better staff. Io_a too, for that matter.

I'm gonna go throw up now.

Not since 2013 but since NIL, I've always said the coaches that can adapt to NIL will succeed, and those that don't will fail. Some CBB coaches like Tony Bennett are retiring bc they can't navigate the new landscape.

I haven’t seen us get remotely close to the intensity of the CO game. It’s like it was our Super Bowl …. Frustrating.

We have gotten better since last year.
True. But again this year, we played our best game early, and have gotten exposed and then worked since.

2024 Best game: Colorado
Since: 2nd half of Illinois
1st half Purdue
2nd half Rutgers
The whole Indiana game

Steadily worse . . .

2023 Best Game: Purdue
Everything After . . .

Groundhog Day.

We didn't have a QB last year.

that would not surprise me at all.
Coach Prime is harder and more demanding of his team. He calls them out. Including his own kid. Our DL was able to beat the crap out of his new OL but they are actually improving.
We've got to be a bit more demanding in my opinion and make guys afraid of losing their jobs. I'd be telling the young guys to win the starter jibs and sit the 5 year seniors.
