Why are people mad at NU actually playing to the final gun?

I would have been more upset if they took a knee.
Run the ball out. You have the 5th string non QB in and they call pass plays!
Might as well try to score. I don't see the shame in that.
More often than not in this situation you turn the ball over on downs, interceptions, or just punt...and allow the opposition to run up the score on you.

It has been rare lately that garbage time leads to scores.

 
The worst part about our defense is that most of those guys will be back next year.

I just want to fast forward to 2018 when we actually open up the check book and get a real head coach to lead us from darkness. Until then, Mike Riley and company are another failed experiment we have to endure. They will not be any better next year because they simply don't know ho wto be better. They are average coaches delivering average results. Ok, now I am ready to be called a non fan and other delightful things the coolaid drinkers like to call people like me.

I love my huskers and want them to return to prominence. If that is bad then so be it.

 
Sure hope the 'we don't get any respect at NU' crowd finally figures out why. 2nd rate talent, 3rd rate coaching, the NU program of old is looooong gone. This is the new NU.

Sadly, I don't think we'll ever follow the blueprint that teams such as Michigan, Bama, and Ohio State have made. We'd rather take the economical route and try to catch lightning in a bottle, which is highly unlikely in today's football landscape. Gotta be willing to pay big time $ for a big time coach in today's day and age. Anyone expecting anything more with this staff in charge is delusional.

 
Scratch Michigan off that list. Didn't win their division, not playing for a conference title or national title and getting punched by Florida State in the first quarter. FSU 200 yards in the first quarter to 22 yards for Michigan.

Maybe they'll wake up soon.

Close the year out 2-4 after a 7-0 start.

Welcome 9-4. It's what we do.
Yes its as if we never changed coaches. It really does feel like deja vu.
Same record (worse last year), poor coordinators, embarrassing prime time losses, worst defensive performances on record, bone headed coaching mistakes..........

I will continue to say, Riley was not hired to win, he was hired as the anti-Bo....

Please for my own information tell me what "big time coach" is going to come to Nebraska and revive the program. Any big time coach is going to go where recruiting is easy. Why would he beat his head against the wall here. You might find a young guy who has had success at lower levels and would love to get paid but he comes with no guarantees.
