Game Thread Nebraska v Wisconsin [NBC- 6:30pm CT]

[TalaricoHusker]

I hate this fucking game

 

[ThomOsborneMD]

FB wasn't supposed to block the option guy. He's out there to block someone downfield. Chubba needs to make the defender make a decision.

He needed to cut that one up field. I’ll cut him a lot of slack. That was one of the best QB games we’ve had all year. This one is on the defense, play calling and Brian MAGA Buschini

 

[Herbie]

Why even watch the games if this is your outlook?

Feel dumb yet

 

[Dr.DrakeRamoray]

Honestly question? Could Rhule lose the team if he keeps Satt this offseason?

 

[Jim14510]

That was one of the best QB games we’ve had all year.

Agreed. His last two throws looked like Haarberg though.

 

[Huskers0119]

I know I'm in my feelings right now but I just feel like I need to say this: Rhule disgusted me with his clock management on the last regulation drive by playing not to lose instead of calling his timeouts and getting more shots at a td. I don't think there are many coaches in America who wouldn't call their 1st of 3 timeouts with 40 seconds left in the 4th, but Rhule was so scared of the possibility of trusting our defense and giving the ball back to a mediocre Wisconsin that he wasted 20 seconds and we didn't get any real opportunity at going for a td as a result.

We're gonna finish fucking 0-4. Loss is on Rhule being an absolute pussy on that last drive and not giving his team anywhere close to its best chance to win.

I think that’s a reaction to last week

 

[ChocaEgg]

I quesition not using EJ more.

Barthel has made some really horrible personnel decisions all year. He can't recruit his way out of a wet paper bag either. Need an upgrade there in the worst way

 

[IM4NUALWAYS]

Again. Terrible throws when it matters for us. They make the plays with QB with a bad hand.

 

[Ext. 55]

We at least looked semi competent at QB.

Sadly my comments in another thread about not seeing false starts and dumb penalties bit us. This loss is on me. That’s my bad.

If thats the case that's stupid
Last week a field goal gives us a lead
This week a field goal only ties it up and we would have had time to try to take the lead, had Rhule not been completely incompetent

 

[nscottie]

A lot of negativity here. One positive. If Chubba had been our qb all year, totally different season.

 

[Kaladin]

No

Think he was scared to give our offense another shot at turning it over. Would prefer he plays that more aggressively but can't say I blame him.

I might add I fucking hate Wisconsin probably more then Cockeye

 

[ChocaEgg]

No

 

[Cash68847]

Nah. Game never would of got to overtime with the mighty SF

It’s more about his game management. The way he handled the end of the half and game was horrible.

They needed to preserve more time to get a TD, but I was totally on board with making it the last possession of regulation. Not that I don't think our defense could stop Wisconsin, I'd just rather have left minimal time.

They went way too far with the clock management letting too much time run off to play for OT on the road with a QB making his 1st start for us.

Ultimately though you scored 3 points after your 1st two possessions and 17 total. That isn't going to be good enough basically every time out
