Game Thread Nebraska v Northwestern (Saturday, October 25, 11:00am FS1)

[Kaladin]

Matt Rhule now 4-1 in last 5 one possession games.

My watch kept giving me high heart rate warnings during last drive

 

[Irv]

Outside the INT thought Dylan played fine. Granted, the INT was awful and at a critical moment in the game.

Fumble could’ve been better too.

 

[NCsker]

If Rhule leaves I’m ok with Ekeler being our head man.

I love Ek but in today’s college football he would be a horrible head coach.

It was bad but Stone said I see your terrible pick and I match.

BTW… fuck Preston Stone and his stupid name. Sounds like a shitty character in a bad soup opera. Fuck that guy.

 

[Snockered69]

Likely 3-5

Got him +3 on my WAR chart for this season.

Emmett Johnson is a stud, btw.

Kudos to the players and coaches for getting off the mat and getting it done. The go ahead drive was incredibly called and executed!!! Special teams opening the 2nd half with a td, defense getting a turnover off of Dylan's int after NW evening up the game and then the O taking it in.

 

[SoCal_Corn]

I'll take it.

He can thank Ek

I think it was last month, Benning said on his morning show that Rhule tried so hard not to hire Eck because there was such a personality difference (e.g. not an east coaster). Really makes you think

So then he hires hillbilly Dana?

Doesn't make sense.

 

[COYS]

YPA this game would rate about 105th in the nation

Sure. But the gameplan today was clearly conservative and asking him to be game manager.

 

[Cornicator]

The officiating was shit the entire game. Refs are worse than cops as far as protecting their own

I honestly don't care about female officials. But the two women were fucking terrible today.

 

[Mavsker]

I honestly don't care about female officials. But the two women were fucking terrible today.

They're usually terrible. Literally no reason to have them except for good boy points

 

[ZJSARENOTFREE]

I do. Bitches shouldn’t be in the game and they proved it

 

[Herbie]

Sure. But the gameplan today was clearly conservative and asking him to be game manager.

Or they simply know they can’t trust him to extend the field vertically has he’s show zero ability to be reliable in doing so in virtually every big 10 game of his career

 

[BigRedSob]

Emmett Johnson is a stud, btw.

Around 850 yards rushing with 5 games to go

Outside the INT thought Dylan played fine. Granted, the INT was awful and at a critical moment in the game.

Agree. I think what was even more critical was how he responded with a game winning drive right after that or two drives later, can’t remember.

Every BIG game we've won Is because of Ekler. Best hire by far

Rhule saved his job by hiring Eckler. Holgerson, Raiola, and the offense has been the biggest let down with the money we spent.
