Game Thread Nebraska @ Minnesota (Friday, October 17, 7:00pm - FOX)

Man, I don’t think Holgorsen has been great at all. Marginally better than Satterfield. Tonight, demonstrably worse.

At some point he needs to recognize our weaknesses and have a game plan that does not expose those.

Lots of potatoes are gonna say “RaIoLa HoLdS tHe BaLl ToO lOnG.”

What the fuck do you want him to do? OL was lost. Fleck knew he could embarrass them and did.

Holgerson has been great since his hire but what the fuck? We called a whopping 3 RPO’s that moved the pocket and they all went for chunk plays but he abandoned it.

Defense was shit against the run and couldn’t get off the field, kept shooting themselves in the foot with dumb penalties. But the way the game was going they probably were pressing too much because the offense was so pathetic.

Ravioli had crossing routes opening early and still didnt pull the trigger. Had a guy open before the first FG. That being said OL is ass. Donnie needs to get some heat on him, his unit is ass.

I just want him to stop running directly into a pass rusher. He did that multiple times tonight.

Also had a couple of chances to step up and avoid the rush but retreated into rushers that had been taken out of the play. He does his OL exactly zero favors.

Whatever offense it is Dana wants to run, we have neither the O-line nor the QB to run it

LOL

 

[biscuitgaze01]

Yeah, but is he running the air raid system from Houston and WVU? If not, why not?

He's running plays that he ran at Houston and WVU if that answers your question. Depends on how you define the word "system" in this context.

 

[TampaBaySkers]

8 point favorites -> three score loss. Frost'd it

Actually Frost would have lost this game 24-21. Honestly not sure there's a comparison for how bad we lost this one.

I’m embarrassed to be a Nebraska fan again.

Raiola stepped up into the pocket 3 different times and was sacked by interior players getting penetration. Lets not act like he doesnt step up into the pocket when appropriate he does it frequently.

No matter how you slice it the Oline was hot garbage in this game. Raiola only deserves a minority of the blame for the excessive pressure.

 

[Omar Little]

Offense has mostly been dogshit since Rhule got here. I don’t even know where you begin to fix it

 

[Hotcarl]

He’s also part of the problem the offense didn’t get 2 tds in 2 redzone visits

Well see he’s a more cerebral, brainy QB versus the scrambling improvisation type like Martinez

“We will, You do."

Brando

Brando

Used to be a Tim Brando fan, but the past several games makes me long for the old Pam Ward/Beth Mowins Saturday morning specials.

Took it up the ass tonight, not sure we aren’t much the same?

We were Sandusky’d for sure

 

[Mr.Bojangles]

Even Lateef couldn't get us out of this hole

At least he can move.

Fact:
Uncle Donny = shit OL

Fact:
Dylan = Uncle Donny

Therefore:
Dylan = shit OL

 

[Mr.Bojangles]

is uncle Donny’s time up?

God I hope so. I was hoping he was gone with Frost.

Probably a lot of guys considering the portal. Great job Matt
