I was pleased as far as run game and pass pro. Wasn't great or excellent, but I definitely think good is a proper description

2nd in the Big in rushing. RBs tore up so pass pro suffered some from that, and losing two starters on the line.
Good is is about right.

This year I am not worried as much as in the past. I think Rhule & his coaches have practiced hard/tough, along with great nutrition, and increased depth. Yes, always a worry.
Hey, I am ok with disagreeing. I can understand your view. I hope we are excellent this year...would settle for great.
I’d love to see the unit as a whole be top 4 or 5 in the conference.
I still thing that’s a few recruiting/development cycles away, but I don’t see it as the impossible mountain to going I felt like it was four or five years ago.
I think we are close, but it will take a few more years to become what we should be.
Offense starts in the trenches and Nebraska seems to have forgotten that over the past decade. Luckily, I think we have coaches now who understand that and are working hard to get us back there...It is a mountain to climb.
New S&C too.
I think we fare better this year.
Injuries. NU has really good frontline players. Stay upright, and cease the turnovers, this team will win 10+. In other words, need some good fortune, and some luck with injuries.

It was better, but I wouldn't say it was "good." Interestingly, in the Oregon writer's Husker preview posted on the main page, he wrote, "Astonishingly, Corcoran and Benhart, both former mid 4-stars, have gotten worse each year on my tally sheet in pass protection, with significant footwork and assignment discipline problems on blitzes. Scott graded out the best, particularly in run blocking..."

The guy must be an idiot. PFF has graded Benhart much higher last year.
So he's a scratch on my credibility list.
Nebraska football: Top 3 offensive performers of the 2023 season
The 2023 Nebraska football season is officially over. We're turning the page to 2024 both in college football and around the world. And that means it's time to

I's clear that Benhart's improvement wasn't jut about passing the eye test. That 70.3 was a career best by a wide margin. The second highest was his 2022 rating of 60.6 overall.

Good is probably not the right word to use. They were better than in the past and considering all the injuries they had played OK. The O-line was not the liability it has been in the past.
I would say they were good. Looking here
Notice all but the Iowa game, with our best output against wiscy, where there was no falloff, yet and injured HH.
Our passing game we unfortunately can't get a real call there. But it sure reflects on our expected run game, yet we still did well.
This year our pass pro shines, and as to our run game, if we match last years ability, good indeed there. If our pass pro is bad it will show up, but I have this sneaking suspicion our timing and pocket presence makes it too look good.
