Finally got to rewatch the game

You really don't know what you have until the bullets are flying

well , I uhh FARTTT understand . That’s my point Curt

I think they tried it against second and third string and it looked good. Week 1 is to see what you look like against another opponent. Remember, we moved a WR to RB after spring ball and he's our #2. You really don't know what you have until the bullets are flying.

I think the bullets were real bullets too. I was listening to Andy/Ari on On3 and they talked about how good the Cincinnati OL is and is going to be this year.

Also listened to Matt Vrzal's post-game wrap up and he made a comment that he thinks Cincinnati is going to finish 3rd or 4th in the Big 12. And Vrz has not been an NU sunshine pumper really.


I'm not exclusive Jeudy or anyone else, just saying that that was a legitimate P4 we faced. So the bullets were definitely different than "brother-in-lawing it" in fall camp.

To your last paragraph, do you think the crowd was worse at Arrowhead than it would have been in Memorial?

I don't disagree either way, an 8PM home game at Memorial has the fans juiced. I just think it was pretty loud there and pro-Nebraska.

It was as loud or louder than most any game I've been to in Lincoln. I'm convinced we lose that game in Cincinnati. The crowd was a difference maker.

I think Cincy will be good as well. They had a decent OL coupled with a mobile QB, and they had an anchor in the middle on their DL we couldn't move at all. Game 1 to Game 2 jump will help us as well.

I just think all of the things we are talking about such as more vertical passing game (no matter the defense), OL getting a better push, DL tightening up, finding an RB2 the other coaches are emphasizing as well since they need to get better. Shoot, Rhule even made mention about the RB situation.

Ya hopefully we wouldn't lose, but that crowd was way into it for us in Arrowhead. The Cincy graphics were weird when you heard how loud the crowd was for the Huskers that's why I don't think it being in Lincoln changes a whole lot. Not sure our players were looking at the jumbotron telling Bearcats fans to get loud as it was quiet for us to snap the ball.

The crowd was rowdy and even heavily booed their band. Not Nebraska-nice. I did not partake in the band booing and still lost my voice....lol.

Yeah an old dude scolded me for booing a little bit.

I told him
1. This is arrowhead.
2. Something needs to change, we’ve been getting our ass kicked for 20 years.

An underrated worry is the blocking we are going to get from TE2 when in heavy sets or 12 personnel. I think losing Markway is a far more crushing loss than we anticipated. Mozee and Nelson both would have had big runs if haarberg and Carter would have got
their blocks.

lol New Mexico top two backs averaged 3.6 yards against Michigan’s D

Only week 1 but Michigan was not impressive against a rough New Mexico team.
