Oh good, so we are beating WI now too due to the transitive property.  We will soon be playing for the Big too

 
I learned that if you’re feeling down about Nebraska and you’re frustrated with the coaching, go back and watch some of Bob Diaco’s post game gems and you’ll feel better. Seriously. 10/10 highly recommend.

No, no one is taking it away from him as he is special.  What is real is that other teams will realize how below average we are if they take him away, then what?  Is there others to step up?  Through 6 games, I’d say no.

Most teams not in the top 5-10 are a lot different when you take away one of their top 3 players. It's a weird hypothetical.

Let’s remember these and compare them to what Wisconsin does to us in a few weeks. 

 
I rewatched the game and learned that our team does not know how to carry someone on their shoulders.  The rest of the woes I already knew because I watched the five previous games. 

 
If teams take away Wan’dale then it opens up for JD or someone else. Why is JD not having as much success this year? Probably because no Morgan to worry about. Or to take an NFL example, Smith-Schuster isn’t having a great season without AB sucking up double teams. Finite number of defensive resources so the more they use to deal with Wan’dale the more opportunities the other guys will get.

Need 28 to get healthy. Hopefully the OL gets better as the year goes on like last year.

 
Rewatching the game now. The Wan'Dale run, that's just crootin. Switzer used to talk about what separated OU from NU being recruiting. He was right most of the time.

I hope the OL gets better, I really do- but its game 6, half way, and sometimes you just are what you are.  People rant like the OL problems are novel, but they've been consistently bad since game one.  The thing with hoping they get better doesn't account for the fact that every team is getting better every week.  But its getting on my nerves people calling Jurgens out, it's extremely tacky. Someone has to snap the ball.
