Game Thread Official Nebraska Vs Illinois GameDay Thread

Fucking hell. That's six weeks at least if true.

What? Lol. Basketball players play with this daily.

That shit no doubt hurts, but it actually doesn’t hurt once you warm up and get going. It’s when you stop playing and sit down it starts to fucking hurt

They weren’t horrible, but allowing the Illinois DB to rip a TD from you with one hand is atrocious.

The only side of the ball that needs to be discussed is defense. In fairness special teams can be in the conversations

 

[22*43*51]

Altmeyer managed a great game, mainly due to dogshit defense being completely lost out there. He made no where near the big time throws Dylan was making. Everything Altmeyer hit was wide open.

So he made better decisions.

Got it.

Dowdell: 3.6 YPC on 20 carries is not going to get anyone to sell out to stop the run. Next to no push from the O line all night

O-Line gassed by end of game

 

[Dear_Leader]

Banks was great, and aside from Neyor getting bitched in the end zone on the int he was good too.

Ehh, they don’t get separation much. For top tier WRs from other programs they only look it part time in the game.

 

[HughJanus]

Raiola throws for 24 of 35/ 300 yds/3 TDs

Neyor - 90yds/2 TDs
Banks 8 catches 94 yds

WRs weren’t horrible at all.

That's surprising. It felt much worse watching in person but those stats look good.

They were pathetic. Uncle Donny better give Mazooka all the top piece he desires

 

[David Webb]

You can’t hang this on the offense. For sure.

As bad as the D played, they only gave up 24. We missed on at least11 points, if not 18 we should have had. You shouldn’t lose games giving up 24 unless you are playing a top defense.

 

[Herbie]

Also if maz is just benched because of hurt pride then fuck coach Raiola.

It wasn’t fun on TV either… ✌️😎

Please quote QB stats.

Please quote your mom getting fucked from behind. I hate you. (Not really - but you’ve been around enough to get it). Die.

I know this is mostly tongue in cheek but if they don’t surround him with talent this is a possibility. Coaches have a board of flight risk levels and Dylan is in the highest level for them

A buddy of mine and I were talking about just this….. DR is an incredible QB. He doesn’t have the supporting talent around him to fully appreciate his talents. We have good WR/RB….. not great. DR is exceptionally good, and he may see that. Good thing is i THINK we have him for at least one more year. I figured he’s here for 2 MAYBE 3 years. At some point he’s going to figure that out and either go NFL or Transfer to Georgia UNLESS we get a good enough support cast around him to win a national championship his 3rd year (I just don’t see this happening in 3 years).

 

[Juro]

Illinois did the exact thing the UNI did, but better. TW got exposed.

 

[Ext. 55]

Also if maz is just benched because of hurt pride then fuck coach Raiola.

Culture build and accountability has to come before the other shit. If he fucked up and let his team down, that’s on him…not the coach.

 

[Slam Duncan]

Please quote QB stats.

Raiola threw for 70 more yards,

Tony white is responsible for altmeyer’s stat line tonight

 

[Steveweiser316]

Honestly?

Hard to blame the offense. The play was there that puts us up 7. Raiola missed the throw and I’m shocked he did. I was already mentally preparing myself to watch the defense fuck up and realized he wasn’t gonna get there.

Defense got punked all night.

Special teams was terrible again and we somehow remain the only team in the entire world that can’t hit a field goal from 40 yards and in.

Foley has no business on this staff.

Yeah - why have a special teams coach when our ST continue to suck

If he goes anywhere it will be to the NFL. He isn’t leaving Nebraska for another school.

 

[TooTall]

You don’t think he had possession with his foot down in the end zone and ball over the plane?

Doesn’t need to keep possession to the ground in that case.

Possession? Check.
Foot down? Check
Ball over plane? Check.

End of story.

Sorry but they made the correct call on that one.

They fucked up plenty of others, but that one was correct.

 

[tman87]

DR is going to feel awful about that throw but its not his fault for one bad throw. The rest of the team didnt do shit.

Went to the game. Crowd was super quiet all night. Our WRs are not good

Banks had a good game.
