You're wrong. I'll keep saying it. You. are. wrong. Dead wrong. Sorry, but the refs aren't why we suck. A penalty is NOT bad because it goes against the Huskers. They called a terrible targeting call earlier and corrected it on replay. We got some make-up calls...it goes both ways. Good teams do not constantly complain about the officiating. they simply don't. It's trash talk. Please stop. We finished 3-9. We haven't beaten a ranked opponent in forever. We haven't competed for a conference title in forever. We can't even win the West Division...and that isn't because the refs don't want us to...it's because we aren't good enough to compete against the weaker division in our conference.

I’m not saying we are losing all these games because of the refs. But to ignore the calls that have gone against us at crucial times this season is ignorant and silly. Frost is bad, the officiating has been bad, and that is a recipe for the disaster we have.

We are simply not disciplined enough to over come a bad call.  A lot of teams are.  NU?  It's the same as a safety or TO.  We just can't balance it out by better play.

:yeah

 

[The Scarlet Pimpernel]

Just makes me wonder how many games we could have won with a competent HC.

 

[Frustrated]

Yes Trev needs to end the misery now.  We have ONE Power 5 win this season and are guaranteed to finish tied for last in our division.  

Does Northwestern even count as a win this season?

 

[The Scarlet Pimpernel]

I'd imagine that after today, the majority of boosters have seen enough and will be making calls to AD Alberts.

 

[ndobney]

Made $7,000 today betting Iowa. I don't know bout you guys but long live the Frost era

Imagine how stupid we look firing him now,  after giving him support,  then hiring our 15th choice?

A complete disaster all around.

I don't see how anyone who watched today's game would possibly second-guess him being fired now. There are plenty of good coaches out there: Mullen, Herman, Chadwell, Calhoun, etc.

 

[skers83]

Those were the only 2 out of the conference we have a chance with.  We have a wining record against none of the others. IIRC 2-2 against NW.

Yea I agree with you.After today it just seems like we get worse week after week. Should change my name to Frustrated 2.

I wouldn't second guess it all. Everyone can see who and what the problem is and has been.

What has he done to earn the extra year?

There you go again with optimism, but we know how that actually turns out...

 

[The Scarlet Pimpernel]

Call Tom Herman or Dan Mullen and offer a chance at redemption. Doesn't take a brilliant person to figure it out.

 

[The Duke]

Nebraska had  (-8) rushing yards in the 4th quarter.

 

[lo country]

Frost presser-On ST-I didn't see it.  I'll watch it.  I need to do a better job.  These guys have no quit.  Made some critical mistakes in the 2nd half.  Blah, blah, blah.....Talks about every group missing plays.
