1st Half Game Thread

I'm concerned by the secondary.

Absolutely no pressure at all from the front four. Can't blame that on the secondary. Is JP all talk?

 

[GretnaShawn]

Their WRs are wide open

 

[newAD]

Alonzo Moore for Heisman

If he played for Bama and had 109 on 3 catches he'd be #1 on ESPN's board.

 

[Redblood23]

I literally hate Bankers scheme. Good teams are going to torch our secondary if things aren't sured up..

Can't make wine without the grapes.

 

[hddude55]

Oregon will be licking their chops when they see our pass defense.

 

[newAD]

Gerry targeted those legs!!!!!!!!

Front 4 isn't responsible for guys running wide open down the middle of the field...almost every play. Gerry made a good hit on 3rd down but the guy was open

 

[KingBlackshirt]

Oh my god langs bench Tommy or run the ball

 

[Shimmer003]

I literally hate Bankers scheme. Good teams are going to torch our secondary if things aren't sured up..

I can't bring myself to that conclusion yet....these are still Pelini guys that aren't suited to playing man-to-man on an island like Banker wants. Like it or not, Banker's scheme is why we are so stout against the run.

 

[KingBlackshirt]

Lightbourn has a weak leg

 

[ncaalover12_rivals43038]

I'm sorry but my girlfriend is a better punter than Lightbourne

 

[Headcard]

Lightborn has a long ways to go. Giving up a ton of field position.

 

[hddude55]

Might be time to try the second string punter

 

[gw2kpro]

It's not going to improve this year. It's year 4 and the decision making under center looks like it's his first start ever.

We got what we got under center and on the d line. That's what happens when you basically take 2 full years off in recruiting cause you're anticipating not being here anymore.

 

[regionsdoc]

Lightbourn has a weak leg

I think the issue is he is a true freshman thrust into a pressure spot he isn't ready for. I feel bad for him.

 

[huskerbaseball13]

Read + Lightbourne is a disaster waiting to happen.

 

[newAD]

Come on Kalu, why didn't you intercept it. Gezzzzz.

 

[DerHusker_rivals270018]

 

[jlb321_rivals110621]

great play by kalu ... 1st time I have seen one of our DBs play the ball

 

[timnsun]

Might be time to try the second string punter

I think bo left the cupboard bare at punter as well... Winking

Agreed. I'm not super happy, but I haven't forgot the leaky run defense by Banker's predecessor.

 

[Jnood]

Ugh.

 

[HuskAir]

Lol, how awful is Jones' coverage?

 

[DerHusker_rivals270018]

Well that blows!

 

[jteten]

Good football teams don't let that happen.

 

[kaz36_rivals189319]

Damn. Not how we wanted to end the half.

 

[Headcard]

How do you let that happen in that situation? So frustrating.

 

[jlb321_rivals110621]

just f'in awful
we have had multiple opportunities to put them away

now 17-7 and they get the ball to open the half

 

[Shimmer003]

Secondary isn't any better.

 

[huskerbaseball13]

Another sloppy sloppy half.....game should be over by now.

 

[hddude55]

Mary doesn't like us.

 

[TheNewNU_rivals50820]

Lol, how awful is Jones?

Jones is a very good corner. Very few people can cover a guy for 10 seconds

 

[TruHusker]

Oh please, it wasnt like Bo was playing a three deep zone all of time. There was plenty of man to man. Very poor excuse.

 

[jeans15]

This staff just doesn't have an aggressive streak in them....no way....you don't dictate the play on 4th and 12.

 

[WoodRiverJennings]

Yucky first half. This team just isn't any good.

 

[HuskAir]

Jones is a very good corner. Very few people can cover a guy for 10 seconds

I feel like he's always a step behind and has been getting worked today.

I haven't had a chance to get on the forums till now- is Lamar Jackson out this week?

 

[ncaalover12_rivals43038]

If we somehow hold off the mighty Wyoming, next week is going to be a bloodbath. Oregon gets at least 60 points on this defense.

 

[Dark_Helmet_]

Two consecutive games with **** first half performances. To bad teams. Why does everyone here think this is "our year" again?

 

[newAD]

Great play by them. Hell of a throw to a 6'5" reeciver. If that guy wasn't that tall, it's incomplete. Coverage wasn't bad.
