    Nebraska's offense is a one man show with Martinez right now. I think he's got potential to get them those 7 to 8 wins, but he needs some help from ANYONE else on that side of the ball.

    They have been bad since Frost Arrived. I see 3 maybe 4 wins no way they can compete with Iowa, Michigan, Ohio state, Wisconsin or Minnesota..then you throw in Oklahoma as a NCG

    This is true for every program in America.

    This team, and its personnel, aren't as bad as some of you are making it out to be.

    Deep breaths, get ready for Saturday.
    Bad? No. But we walked a thin line all of last year in a number of close games that literally could have gone either way. You can't count on those breaks to keep lasting year in and year out. While I certainly don't think we are bad, I was hoping to see some alterations in our offense to open it up and get speed on the outside and get LL using his legs to move the chains as he should have on the first series of the game. We continue to want to run a guy like Smith right up the A gap on most rushing plays and when we kick it outside (only time I saw) he goes to the house. You can go on and on and I know Napier was probably not happy with either side of the ball but was just hoping to see some variations to what we saw last year.

    Their fans are as happy as we were after North Alabama. Their fan base was fractured already with the SLC teams bailing out on the SLC to the WAC & A-Sun. On top of that they’re also fractured over the realization moving to FBS isn’t in the cards. Losing to a 5th year D2 program that started out with no stadium isn’t sitting well. Zem and company can polish that fecal statue all week, it still stinks.

    Should be interesting, Oregeon now has to mow down his son’s team to save face.

    We need to crush Nicholls just because.

    We did not stretch the field. After the 1drive we basically abandoned the run. Our key playmakers didn’t touch the ball enough. We sucked on 3rd downs. All our 3 and outs decimated our D. Lewis made poor decisions for a 5th year starter. We missed D assignments ( ie: UT’s 1st td), we had TOOOOO many dropped passes. Lewis threw the ball behind the receivers. We needed to keep the 3-5 ypc and let their D suffer more.

    This is still a 9 to 12 win team. Just have to execute.
    Agreed.

    Yeah….not making all of those 3 and outs just killed us. Even if we didn’t score more not keeping those drives alive just sealed our fate. And the worst part of this is that there are far too many reasons why we didn’t convert more.

    This is my biggest issue with Napier. It's plain as day to just about everyone that Levi in the pocket equals slow death to our offense. Yet, Napier continues to gameplan like he has Mahomes 2.0 under center. It's mind-numbing. LL had several extremely good opportunities on key plays to use his legs. The Texas defense was never in any real danger, and they should have been. LL taking off would have put UT's defense on their heels, making adjustments that Napier could have easily taken advantage of.
