    So… Where do we go from here?

    Rhule doesn't even seem to be mad about the whole Carolina situation. He seems to understand he didn't do well enough to be the head coach there.

    So… Where do we go from here?

    Yeah, feels like Sipple is trying to correct for his mistakes in the past regime, but the pendulum is probably swinging too far. This was his article before the Cockeye game in 2021 (granted that was the greatest 3-9 team of all time). All about how much fight Nebraska shows and how he respects...

    My bad, that's a good correction. But at least we agree this is not the easiest schedule since 2016?

    4th easiest since 2016.*

    Game Thread Nebraska @ Penn State: Saturday, November 22 - 6:00pm NBC

    That’s fair. But Minnesotas d is analytically better than Penn St’s. So I guess we’re both right?

    Game Thread Nebraska @ Penn State: Saturday, November 22 - 6:00pm NBC

    Statistically before this week, Minnesota's D was better. Given TJ and team had 13 days and Raiola and team had 6 days before each poor performance, the environment is probably a wash.

    Breaking Dayton Decommits

    So far we've played the 64th hardest schedule, and have the 15th hardest remaining. We'll probably end up around the 50th hardest schedule which is close to an average year over the last 12 or so years. It's an easier schedule, certainly, but it is not "unbelievably easy" as you would say. That...

    Breaking Dayton Decommits

    Thank you, @HCFord1. I would respond to you, @Huskersballz, but I don't have anything to add to what Ford said. The debate is meaningless until we see the next two games.

    Sorry, I meant this year. I sort of assumed that was a given going into this discussion.

    Breaking Dayton Decommits

    Raiola has not played a P4 defense as bad as UCLA's. Like @SantaBarbaraSker has been saying, I'm happy for TJ and hope he does the same against Penn St and Cockeye, but the UCLA game wasn't some grand turning point for the offense or the team or the program. We beat a really bad team by 7.

    Playing with a lead

    He did say in his press conference that when you're up like that, the easiest way to blow a team out is to get a takeaway. Which we don't get a ton of takeaways. But he did say that's the next step in our program's progession. Starts at about the 15:10 mark.

    Nebraska - Good offense & Good defense

    We're roughly 93rd in run defense and 3rd or 4th in pass defense, which makes us a slightly above-average defense in 2025. In 1975, we'd be a below-average defense.

    Nebraska - Good offense & Good defense

    I agree. I think them getting a kick blocked and returned for a TD against Penn St hurt their ranking a lot (which it should, that's a 10pt swing). Without that, they're probably similar to us I bet.
