Crying and laughter at the same time. Un-freaking-believable. Next week, same result. And future weeks, ditto. At best, 1 win and 11 losses.

That is an absolutely INSANE stat. 64 passes and not one hold?
But they had maybe 7 passes per game?95 Huskers went an entire season and didn’t give up a sack...

That right there has cost nu multiple games. I can live with some issues on defense. Nu doesnt have the horses on the DL and that just cripples a DC.I am thankful the staff made the switch at punter. Armstrong gave us a real shot to win. He did all that could have been asked. Actually, if Lightbourn was punting today, we may very well have lost in regulation.
And I do agree that the offense likely does have many great days ahead.
I'll continue to rant about our defense, however. And our overall lack of discipline.
The reason Nebraska WILL retain national relevance is the fan base. The law of supply and demand. If we stop demanding winning football, then we will be in trouble.
And won.
Yes they did after an 8 yard game last week which they won
No need to.
But if Riley was still coaching, and this team was 0-6 after a loss like today, the entire state of Nebraska would be aflame now, with a couple million Nebraska fans rioting.
I understand the need for patience with Frost and staff. But I also understand they share a large part of the blame for this disaster thus far.
So that stat credits what NW does and who they are. A team that scores TDS on drives in less that 2 minutes consistently. So why we give that chance and not grow a pair and try to close out the game I have no earthly clue.

Why no angst for greg Austin? His linemen killed Nu in this game. For all the good they did at times....killer false start and then killer bad snap. Foster had two penalties right out of the gate. Criminey!
Got invited to the bud Crawford fight tonight....I hope he takes my frustration out on that dude.
