    Hello, brick wall. Got dayum, Rhule

    This was a great HT speech by Rhule. We played a great half of ball against a far inferior opponent. That is not nearly enough. This was effective - we came out and even the deep subs were out there on a mission in the 2nd half. If we want to be great again, you don't get there by one nice...

    Game Thread Nebraska v Akron (6:30pm BTN)

    Soo 11 and 13 years ago. Too damn long ago. Tonight feels real damn good. Haven't had the endorphins popping like this after a game for a long time. CU win was nice last year, but the 2nd half we sucked ass that game. Tonight we dominated so thoroughly and with 1 through 4th teamers, it...

    I honestely don't know the last time we kicked ass like this. It's been a helluva long time. These kinds of wins not only get young talent a qtr or more or reps and confidence, but they give the whole team confidence and that feeling of going into games EXPECTING to win. This teams needs to...

    Mozee was impressive. That kid needs to play. Might be our most elusive, explosive player on offense. He can play hybrid slot and RB. I see not only a very bright future for him, but we realistically need his contributions this season. Lateef looked very good. Very athletic, super strong...

    This felt like the old days for sure. First teams just kicking ass like they expect to do (yes, a first for us for too long), and then 2nd, 3rd, 4th teamers coming in and following suit. A god damned GREAT feeling. We haven't had such a beat-down win in a long, long time. Even versus bad...

    Special teams being so improved did win us this game. Our punter looks money on those inside the 10 type of punts. Our kicker hit a 52 yarder, which ultimately was the game winner. We didn't do anything stupid in the other areas of special teams. Kicker was money on everything, snaps and...

    That would be Cinci's best bet. And it is also very likely. They can just grind out first downs by letting him run or scramble. RPO's, etc.

    Please throw this ball downfield far enough for the first.

    It's looking that way. Offensively.... we need some big, explosive plays. Would help keep pressure off the now tired defense.

    Cinci has run it down our throat in the 2nd half.

    Realize Cinci is play soft and deep, but we need to be stretching the field a bit more. Too many throws not putting more pressure on the defense. We can dink and dunk to a win, but it is not a sure thing and we need explosive plays.
