Oklahoma: What did we learn?

[admo]

Yeah, it was weird, it is hard to explain.

The Deli at the end of Campus Corner is fun and cheap!

You are making an incredibly big deal of something that has happened twice this year.

It’s a representative point. Not going to apologize for wanting the best talent on the field. Same thing happened last year. Practice playbook guys at skilled positions with no return. 

 

[UniversalMartin]

They played 33 and 27 snaps.  I'm pretty sure that's not qualified as a benching.

Played less than 50% on offensive plays...thanks for pointing out that we need them on the field more than 50% of the time

 

[DefenderAO]

Glad to know you have such great opinions of players that play for your team. 
 

Good job. 

Certainly. Not going to give Culp a pass because of fans’ bleeding hearts for nice players. Not giving Liewer a pass when he plays in front of more talented kids and then doesn’t make plays. 

this one isn’t challenging. NU is weaker on offense right now than D. The O Line is a mess. How about giving our best O player, Adrian, the most talented targets as often as possible?

But some may think the outcomes at practice should continue to drive Wyatt and his walk on brethren getting high game reps.

I saw Wyatt Liewer go up and get a ball, and get smashed.  Came down with it.  Play maker.

I saw Omar turn a pass into 30 yards, and also lay out like Liewer (but in the endzone) and come down with it.  Play maker.

I saw Betts going down on the sideline full speed, covered up, and come down with it.  Play maker.

I saw Vokelek stretch out and gobble up a high pass.  Play maker.

I saw Adrian Martinez escape the pocket filled with OU defenders over and over.  Play maker.

Rahmir Johnson blocking in pass pro.  I saw him run quick and hard.  Play maker.

I saw the defense make play after play, and holding a high-powered, fast paced Oklahoma Sooner offense to 21 points and 400 yards.  Play makers.

I see this Husker team ready to go, and ready for MSU.

Manning played 33 snaps and was targeted twice.  I don't think it's Liewer that's holding him back from producing.

They played 33 and 27 snaps.  I'm pretty sure that's not qualified as a benching.

In 63 total team snaps, and you are purposely discounting the previous two games for some reason.  

 

[teachercd]

I learned that NU is about 4 snaps away from being 4-0 and ranked, probably 8th in the nation.

That is sick.

Have you been around fluids?

 

[teachercd]

Have you been around fluids?

Yes

But MSU is 20 and they have a "big" win over Miami

NU would be top 10 for sure...but they hate winning.

 

[mwj98]

Team played as best as they could.  Penalties were bad. But ST has killed us. Defense is good. Could have been better. Misses tackles here and there, but put us in position to win. Love the effort. Proud of these kids. If you wanna start all over and have a mass exodus in the transfer portal fire frost. Not right now. Let us see how the season plays out. I think we will be surprised. 

 

[Mavric]

I don’t get this not playing the best guys, 

Perhaps because your assessment of who the "best players" are is incorrect.

 

[Mavric]

This is demonstrably false.  Good try though.

I mean ... this is the "Oklahoma: what did we learn?" thread.  So talking about the Oklahoma game seems appropriate.

How many more snaps do you want him to play when he was out with an injury?  Is that Frost's fault too?

 

[Mavric]

The interior of the line got blown up on both the first two FG attempts as well.  As in, knocked over backwards.

So not just on the blocked extra point.  That's pretty bad.

 

[krc1995]

This is demonstrably false.  Good try though.

How many receptions did Liewer have? 
 

you don’t always have to double down on a bad opinion.
