he is usually pretty good at breaking down the deficiencies of opponents, but he is completely worthless at objectively doing that for the Huskers. It’s gotten hilarious over the years. He phrases his breakdowns like the Huskers are good enough to easily expose and take advantage of the weaknesses of those teams without acknowledging that those weaknesses are often still a strength when they line up against NU..
His Illinois thread last year was amazing.

I actually think on paper we have the players to expose weaknesses, but it's actually doing it on game day that is the disconnect.
 
Is there any evidence right now that this class won't be more than 14-16 players? That obviously doesn't excuse anything, but those are the numbers I've read on other sites as well.
 
I did respond in that thread that if NU lost, Frost deserved to be fired. Then we get completely thumped! Lol
-Coach on his way out
-QB coming off COVID protocols
-generally shitty team
That was a really tough one for me and my confidence in this staff.
I think there was a Minnesota one as well. Last year did no one any favors.

I agree that we have the guys to do that against IL and several other teams in the league. My issue is that we have shown a significantly greater propensity to underperform than over perform. Recent history tells us that is far more likely until the boys prove otherwise

A couple weeks ago Deab said Frost basically confirmed it would be 15-17, but apparently as of yesterday that was revised to 13-14…
 
Minnesota crushed me. That's the worst loss in the Frost era by far iyam.
We looked like a team that couldn’t care less about playing a football game that day. That soft shit infuriates me because that’s 100% avoidable by a coach that can motivate their team.
 
He is the epitome of the type of Husker fan that just annoys the shit out of me. He thinks he is so goddamn smart breaking down all the deficiencies of all the other teams, but can not bring himself to say anything remotely concerning in regards to Nebraska. When someone does call out a potential weakness, he is so quick to call them out for their stupidity as he sees it.

Also didn't hurt that they did it with the douchiest coach of all time on the opposite sideline.

He's one of two people on the planet that if I could get away with it I would tie him to a chair and slowly carve out his eyeballs with a fork. Then piss in his eye sockets.

@Baron Winnebago of course being the other.

Yep pretty straight forward there

Players can't motivate themselves though? I don't know what sports you played but I had zero issue getting motivated without a coach saying a word to me. Isn't that what competitors just do?

I played football from 6-18 and like you had no issues getting myself ready for a game.

100+ players is a different story.

I know the culture word is over used. But that is a culture issue if you can't get yourself fired up for a college football game. That means you don't care enough and probably shouldn't be on the sideline. I'd put my ass on the line at any point in the game as a 28 year old for that jersey.
 
I think Corn is a good poster. Full of himself and won’t admit when he’s wrong, but does more work than most in putting together informative threads.

Beats the many posters that bring nothing to the table besides snark and dueschbaggery
