Offense that starts strong but fizzles out after the first two possessions. A defense that can’t stop a nosebleed. What’s the answer going into next season?
Same result three games in a row

Fire Matt's *** with cause. For spitting and licking. Won't have to pay him a dime.
Raiola was more important than you guys wanna give him credit for. Was he perfect, no. But he made the offense not so one dimensional.
Having DR wouldn’t change the outcome of a single loss for us.
USC would be a win
USC could have ended differently. But not after that.
I remember when people demanded Pelini was fired for blow out losses. Now we get 3 in a row.
He was responding to a hypothetical. Most sports discussions are. Good grief.
L is an L. W is a W end of story.
You know as well as I do only thing that gets looked at is the W-L column. That’s all
That should be looked at. Anything past that is not important.
As the game went on, the talent gap was so glaring. We just don’t have the players especially on the Offensive and Defensive Lines. Also, we have to find players on defense that can intercept a ball when thrown right to them and kill a drive. Currently we only get all players with two left hands that bat the ball around when a golden opportunity presents itself.
It’s more important than you make it out to be. If Raiola played and Nebraska lost by 3 points in the last three games the noise wouldn’t be as loud. I know Frost made it a joke but you’d feel closer than you do now.
For instance, Iowa went 10-4 a couple years ago and lost something like 92-0 against ranked teams. This year 9-4 with losses by a combined 16 points. The two differences tells you a ton.
Sure makes you feel warm and fuzzy and say oh boy we were close…..just like Frost was just 9 plays away from going 12-0 instead of 3-9 one year at Nebraska. In fact you Hawkeye fans said a loss is a loss. Now you all claim differently.
Just curious, are you someone who thinks we're going to win seven plus games next year?
Defensive backs are just wide receivers that can’t catch.
Hyper focused in my Hawkeye comment per usual. Ask yourself, what would be Husker fans head space if Raiola didn’t get hurt and Nebraska lost to PSU, Iowa, and Utah by a combined 12 points?
Question 2: Would it be the same or different than what it’s at now?
With Rhule as your coach? Probably not. But I’ll wait until the portal additions/subtractions are finished before definitely saying no.
You are telling Nebraska fans that close losses are cool. Nebraska has a few dozen of them in recent years. Lose by 1 lose by 60 the record is what matters. So what, failing is failing.
If Nebraska was 9-3 of course it’s better than 7-6 why would you ask that.
how many times has Iowa beaten Nebraska by less than 7 and at the very end of the game and all you Hawkeye fans say it how ****** Nebraska is and so on…..so don’t come here now saying close losses are ok.
Yes I’ve heard that saying but other teams have DBs that can intercept on a regular basis.
