Exciting Friday Info for Wiscy

"I don't have a girlfriend" test

You guys are a-holes! :lol:

First quarter against Fresno State. Nebraska trails by a touchdown. Taylor Martinez drops to pass. Interception.

Quincy Enunwa sprints into the picture. He blindsides the Fresno defensive back, knocking the ball free.

Yoshi Hardrick and Andrew Rodriguez dive for the fumble. Rex Burkhead jumps on the ball just before it rolls out of bounds.

DAT.

The acronym was Tim Beck's creation. It's a motto the offensive coordinator invokes often with players. It reflects his vision for the future.

Yes, the playbook has changed. You didn't see all these toss plays and options under Shawn Watson. But revitalizing Nebraska's offense was never as simple as changing the scheme. If you thought so, you weren't watching closely enough. Beck watched. He saw the offense wreck two promising seasons.

His blueprint for fixing it: "DAT."

Discipline. Attitude. Toughness. You saw it all on the interception return.

I LOVED this article!!!

Can't wait for this game vs. Wisconsin and can't wait for the years to come! :nanalama

 
It all just boils down to execution, regardless of the actual game plan and gimmicks. Plain and simple. If the Huskers execute the way they are capable of and don't beat themselves, then it's a sure victory. There hasn't been a team in the past two years that's actually beaten the Huskers... except Nebraska (and maybe Texas Tech).

Should Wisconsin win because they are, in fact, the better team (right now), so be it, but I won't believe they are until I see it for myself. If Wisconsin wins because Nebraska beat Nebraska, then I will pound my head against the wall yet again. I have a good supply of Advil just in case.
What???

Scheme can and frequently does make a HUGE difference in how difficult it is to move or stop the ball. Execution is critical but the odds of successfully executing a play can differ wildly depending on the scheme.
Sure does, what I was saying that all the schemes in the world don't mean squat if they aren't EXECUTED.
Well duh! What's the next keen insight you're going to share? "You can't win unless you score the most points!"?

Anyways.....

GBR!!
You're kind of making my point by mocking me in that it's an obvious no-brainer. Talking about schemes and gimmicks doesn't get me excited, since it still boils down to one simple thing no matter what. Execution.

If that's too simple of a view point, perhaps you want to edumacate me more.

Okey doke!

So very sorry for the mocking manner my friend. You're quite right, execution is indeed the bottom line.

GBR!!

 
From my usually credible source;

Coaches are confident we can move the ball against Wiscy. Look for a mixture of attacking the edges and downhill power, and heavy PA and motion in the passing game. Lots of new stuff in the playbook this week including triple stacked WR's. Also have a variety of gadget plays and a newer set with Rex at FB and Abdullah/Green at IB. Other O details ommitted. Expect Kyler to come into play more as coaches don't feel Wiscy has a LB or Safety that can hang with him. They want to hit a big play early. On D expect pressure early and often, a variety of new blitz packages and supposedley more blitzing than we have ever seen in the Pelini era. I don't want to go into detail on the rest of the D stuff in case the wrong people are reading this. Let me just say that the game plan I am now seeing is a far cry from the first 4 games. If our guys can execute the plan, Husker fans should be extremely happy.

Insider over on RSS said similar things, for obvious reasons didn't go into many specifics. Pretty obvious suspicions that they've been holding a fair amount back were correct. As you said, it gets down to whether we can execute

Your credible source must not be very secretive because I got this same email from 4 or 5 different people since 4pm Friday. LOL.

Don't get me wrong, I LOVE IT and hope half of it comes out to be true during the game tonight. GBR.

I didn't say it was exclusive. I get these emails occasionally on Fridays and typically they pan out to be mostly true. I would assume highly sensitive items never get in to start with. Most of what I passed along is pretty much common sense but after our first four games I, like many other Husker faithful, need all the hope we can get. It was refreshing to know the coaching staff seems to be addressing the correct areas. I don't really think that I intercepted the japanese radio transmission the day before Pearl Harbor.
