We have become Minnesota. I am sad my kids get to grow up on this version of Nebraska 

lol we wish we were Minnesota at this point

Question for you smart people, 

talent or scheme on defense? 
 

Scheme 1000%

I think I just saw the cardboard cutouts trying to leave for the exits.

There has to be something you can do on defense even if you’re under talented? 
 

maybe that’s what practice is for

Next week may be the first Nebraska  game I will have not watched since the preschool years

Illinois punched us in the mouth all game last year, and ripped at the ball every damned play.

I just don't understand how this team came into this game with so little fight in them. The coaches shouldn't even have to tell them anything.

But here we are, watching a soft team get beaten up by a bad team.

you're telling me Illinois has more talent than us? no way

Scheme by miles.

We have some very good talent on this team, but schemes in all 3 phases of the game is holding this team way back.

Yeah it's pretty hard to claim talent when you're playing Illinois

 

[Jason Sitoke]

That’ll do it. 
 

Win last week. Game before we ‘had it, but blew it’. And there were ‘things to like’ in the OSU game. 
 

There is nothing redeeming about this game. All 3 phases bad. Not just mistakes, but getting beaten decisively by the conference doormat. 
Frost is gonna see some true venom this week from the fans and media after this one.

You mean there's still some in the stands?  Or are those waiting for the roads to clear?     

 

[TDHusker]

haha s#!tshow continues.  

3rd and long, QB run every friggin time.

You don’t want him to toss another INT do ya?  I’m being sarcastic of course. 

 

[Mastershake]

Nothing redeeming about this

Remember when starting Luke over Adrian was going to fix all the ills on the offense? 

Pepperidge Farm remembers.
