Illinois @ Nebraska Game Thread (11/21/20)

I thought we already hit rock bottom... feel like under the rock today

 

[HuskerDB]

Jurgens regardless had had a horrendous half

I think our coaches have had a horrible 3 years

 

[Huskrsteve]

Not sure I’ve seen a worse half. We played OSU better

Look at the lack of discipline, penalties, and lack of execution all over the field. The coaches cannot produce effort from players, they can coach them up, teach them, and punish them, that's it. Coaches aren't responsible for holding, or false starts, targeting, PI, or defensive holding. Poor effort and being an inferior athlete means you cannot man up and play against the player across from you. That is on recruiting, or more importantly the lack of, and the players. Saturday is all on the players, coaches can make adjustments and changes, without effort it is all for nothing.

LOL, this is not on any of the players. This is pure player development or the lack of.

Now I understand why we don't try and pass down field. We can't pass at all.

Adrian can... but he still might have thrown a pick on that one... That has to be sideline or nobody... can't try to throw it over the left shoulder..

 

[Huskerhunter]

logan...Logan....LOGAN!

 

[YUENGLING]

Arguably the worst half in the Scott Frost era considering the opponent

28-10

Right now Nebraska is the worst team in the Big Ten...it’s impossible to understand that but again RIGHT NOW it’s true.

 

[CrnhskrBob]

You know I really don't want to make an excuse but it all started with that terrible call at the beginning with that forward pass called a lateral pass fumble

 

[Beareye]

Now I understand why we don't try and pass down field. We can't pass at all.

And this is a huge problem in modern football. Luke is a great athlete, but not a legit FBS starting QB.

 

[bilsker]

If i am the back up center i turn in my gear after the game and enter transfer portal.

 

[Hville]

No, but when half the time our QB has to guess where the snap will be, it sure doesn't help.

If that's the case why did AM get benched?

 

[Husker In Oklahoma]

Yes, but it’s best chance at not completely sucking is with AM at QB and LM at RB/WR/slash.

Give Smothers a shot. You have nothing to lose, NOTHING.

 

[RedRum]

I thought LM deserved a shot.....

Time to bring AM back in

Kind of thought so too, but AM has played well against these guys in the past.

LM is throwing late, not seeing the open man, and just missing throws. There have been plays there and he hasn't made them. He doesn't have it today and Scott should have figured that out earlier. AM could have brought some momentum into the locker room.

 

[bucktril]

I yearn for the days of Mike Grant slinging the football all over as compared to what we have today.

This is 100% on the coaches...100%
