This year is a bust - adjustments to coaching, new offensive and defensive schemes. Just sit back, relax and watch the losses pile up. Adjust your expectations or it will be miserable. I see 3 wins - Illinois, Rutgers, and Purdue in the division. 5-7.

The Huskers cannot give up 500 yds a game and expect to complete for a championchip.

I'm hopeful that once this team "depelini's" that we'll see a somewhat disciplined team, but unfortunately that won't be for another year or two.

Iam begining to believe this was the wrong hire. I think Banker is one of the worst defensive coordinators I have ever seen and the offensive coordinator isn't much better.

Come on, people. The writing is on the wall. This just isn't a very good football team.

WE ned a defensive coach who nows how o coach, and fortuntelythis one does NOT. OUR defense is weak, and we keep losingplayes o injury. Why. have never know a year his bad sinceI came to America 1969. Mst have somethin to do with the conditioning. Surely that is not bad s well as all ths other "stuf

We are out of our league. Defense is awful. I have always thought the Blackshirt thing, while good during the Devaney era, works against our team. Players get an inflated sense of their own ability when they "earn" the blackshirt it seems to me. When the D is special, hand out the blackshirts.

this team just isnt good enough to win 9 or 10 games to get the division they will definitely lose to wisconsin and MSU and probably drop a third straight to minnesota to make 2015 the worst year in husker football since the callahan era

Bo was so arrogant he thought he could coach up defense with any kid. He didn't think he had to recruit special kids for his scheme.
They gathered themselves together and fought back. Last year they would have folded and not come back to the fold after halftime.
ReplyWe are so close just need to put 4 quarters together and play mistake/penalty free football
ReplyMakes no sense to panic after 3 games with a new coaching staff and new system. Our 2 losses come by way of a hail mary pass and an overtime loss. There are no teams on our conference schedule that we CANNOT beat. Keeping the faith!
ReplyYes but they'll need help from other teams which I think they'll get if they win out.
Replywe have the talent to be able to so I put yes. the question is will they step up.
ReplyNeed to focus
ReplyI know this would be a tough year. Learning a new offency and defence takes more than a month's time. The fact that we are close in games is incurrageing .
ReplyFAITH
Replyjust feel its there
ReplyThey barely lost to teams that might be as good or better than those they'll face (throw in Pierson El and we're probably 3-0) and Riley is just beginning the journey.
ReplyThe talent is there but the coach of the offense/head coach need to run the ball more and pass less. Let the run open up the defenses for the pass instead of the other way around, ie, 3rd & 1 and you pass the ball?????
ReplyThey have been tested by two good teams and I think they can correct their penalties and the dropped balls at Miami were flukes
ReplyI'm a rational human being who doesn't abandon a coach's prospects for success because of losses to decent teams on a Hail Mary and a bad throw in overtime.
ReplyTeam has looked good--very close to 3-0. I trust Riley, and the players have shown they can play well--it takes time to transition to a new system/coaching staff.
ReplyAnything is possible.
ReplyThey can win the big 10 and make it to the Poulan Weedeater Bowl!
ReplyI am hopeful talent will show through inept coaching. Mostly OL philosophy. Our guys get tired- use some rotation. OL is one of our deepest areas.
Replythey just might limp across the finish line, but they will finish. the big prize is still there for the taking. you have a lot of experience in Riley's coach's, let's all take a deep breath and relax.
ReplyI think the two close loses make teams stronger in the long run.
ReplyI think this team has talent. The coaching staff just needs to utilize this talent. But, I'm not optimistic that they will but hopeful.
ReplyBecause they will start Wilbon at IB and he will provide the missing ingredient!!!
