Game ThreadNebraska v Cincinnati (Kansas City, MO) - Thursday, August 28 8:00pm ESPN
Complaining about that stat line is egregious. Especially for the 1st game of the year against a power conference team who is at worst going 8-4 this year.
You all know I love a good "sky is falling everything sucks" as much as the next guy, but the D has given up 143 yards at this point and the O has consistently moved the ball. Yeah it sucks that they stalled out 3-4 times, but there's some good bones here.
You beat the defense by taking what they give you in this scenario. They are playing cover 4 (defending the deep ball) so you take the underneath route and take 5 yards. They are winning 13-10 right now by using that philosophy along with solid special teams and defense.
For fucks sake the team is finally playing complimentary football and you still find a way to bitch because the deep ball isn’t there.
