What if anything do you need to see in these two games to make you feel we can still salvage a bowl game season?
 
1. An offense that doesn't look completely dysfunctional
2. A kicker who makes PATs
3. Our punt and kick returners fair catching everything/not catching punts on the goal line
4. Our head coach refraining from doing/saying something that leaves be in disbelief
 
It would be nice to see what our offense looks like in a rhythm for once. Have a comfortable lead and see all of the talent on this team. Guys like Betts, Brown, Morrison and Nixon get in the game because we're up by 40 at the half. Against Buffalo, just not get our ass kicked.
 
Fordham:
60+ offense
14 less defense

Buffalo:
45+ offense
20 less defense

My predictions:

49-17 Nebraska over Fordham
31-27 Nebraska over Buffalo

We need to look like a well oiled machine, a well coached team. Almost 4 years of this staff and I can't really think of 1 game that we outcoached anyone or looked like the much better coached team. I am not sure there is the necessary attention to detail from this staff because we make so many rudimentary mistakes. I've coached with some great coaches/staffs and there was a night and day difference between a team that was well coached and one that wasn't. Discipline and attention to detail starts with the coaches
 
The ability to actually make adjustments in-game and especially at half. These probably aren’t the best games to show that, but since Frost has been here, we have been outscored 189-260 (162-243 P5 only) in the 3rd quarter alone. Just shows how terrible our coaching staff is at making any adjustments whatsoever.
 
I don't think Fordham tells me anything. Buffalo needs to be a convincing win. Take the lead and hold it the entire game. Have multiple touchdown lead heading into the fourth.

Not sure I'll have any confidence in this team until after Michigan St.

So if you get blasted with booze, chicks, gummies and blow on occasion in DT Lincoln, does that make you detail oriented?

FTR, I probably shouldn't coach.

When have we put together 4 quarters under this staff? Maryland ‘19? Bueller? Bueller?

All a result of exactly the above.

Can you coach QBs? From some of the rumored stories we have been hearing about the staff you might fit right in.
 
1. No mind numbingly stupid plays like fielding a punt at the 1
2. Adrian making quick reads, getting the ball out on time and being mostly accurate.

There is a lot of other things of course like having a semblance of a running game, but those 2 things would make me think we have a chance to win 6.

As long as you're allowed to smoke cigars.

Corch Bigstick.....has a nice ring.

The staff talks incessantly about quick blinkers, then they keep playing someone with dry eyes due to the non-blinking. That's just one example of mixed messages and head scratching decisions from this staff.

Also, where was Betts Saturday? It's time to cut the shit on playing walk-ons. As as a staff you have zero time left to be messing around with trying to teach someone a lesson about practice habits. Maybe he has shitty practice habits, but I'm sure nobody would care if he had 10 catches for 175 yards. SMH.
