Second half game thread

That’s an impressive amount of loads for one man to take.

four loads? that's breakfast for @thall_

Just call me Paul Pelosi.

I’m not mad at Luke. He’s frustrated

 

[thall_]

if you weren't such a ***** you'd be well on your way to $200

I am sure you are enjoying this, especially given your predictions, Husker fan

no need to be pissy, bud

DeVito is inept, and the fact we’re letting him lumber down the field for big yards is embarrassing

 

[RaulJones]

I’m not mad at Luke. He’s frustrated

I am cause hes stupid. You are trying to come from behind.

 

[king_kong_]

Whipple needs to somehow find a way to manufacture some points here

 

[jteten]

I’m not mad at Luke. He’s frustrated

It doesn’t work that way. Especially for a ‘leader’.

 

[stonesak]

If we trot Purdy out again, that's proof Mickey ain't ready for the job.

 

[jteten]

Trash *** team.

 

[king_kong_]

too much east-west from Grant

I mean, he's 100% NOT ready for this job. By what metric is he qualified to be a P5 head coach?

 

[HuskAir]

OMG just ******* run straight.

 

[frostonthegrass]

boooooo that ****

Don't ask me, I've never thought he was ready. Some people need the obvious spelled out to them.

 

[schuele]

Love Grant, but you gotta know where the sticks are, should have had a first down there.

 

[jteten]

Lube up, this is gonna hurt.

Hard to say, I bet we’re winning this game if Thompson doesn’t get hurt which isn’t MJ’s fault

 

[Harry Caray]

I'd rather hire Ryan Walters as head coach than Mickey. Keep Mickey as Assistant HC/recruiting coordinator, go get an offensive coordinator who believes in physical football.

 

[regionsdoc]

Had the first down easily, and decided to run backwards instead.

No f’ing way.

 

[jteten]

Irrelevant review ffs.

 

[Chief Wiggum_rivals246870]

I am on the Mickey bandwagon....but good gravy, anyone with two eyes can see that Purdy is just not ready.

 

[Mr.Scary13]

Really need to question MJ with this. He clearly tells the interviewer that Smothers would start second half and them proceeds to put in Purdy.

 

[HominidHusker]

Hard to watch Husker football.
Can’t wait to get the rebuild started.

 

[frostonthegrass]

same **** for years

Fine, I'll give you that. But there has been some really dumb decisions made today. The play where CT got hurt is the perfect example of why MJ is not head coach material.

 

[anon1765477286]

This is our team after a bye week. Let that sink in.

 

[jteten]

Their downfield blocking is top notch. I miss it.

 

[king_kong_]

This is our team after a bye week. Let that sink in.

winning and driving when our quarterback went out

you're right, this is our team after a bye week (chance to go up 2 scores vs a "top-20" team)

 

[mgbreeze]

If CT is seriously hurt we won't win another game this season. Not sure we'd win one with him.

 

[Tarheelhusker]

Just day dreaming here. When the Bobfather showed up in ‘62, he took us to the Gotham Bowl, We were good through 2001. 40 years! We’ve been lousy from 2002 through 2022, only 20 years. We’ll get rid of frost‘s dead weight players, hire
a knockout coach and get back to being respectable!

 

[thall_]

that’s fair, though I’d put that more on Whipple.

However, we’ve killed teams with big passing plays so hard to fault them for taking a shot

After this many years of getting it handed to us, we don’t need lube any more.

 

[SeaOfRed75]

They aren't even trying. Purdy can't throw to save his life.

 

[Yantzeee]

Huh? Because he called a pass play on 3rd down. Oh wow. Any coach that calls a pass play on 3rd and 11 better be checked.I’ve been watching football forever. That might be the dumbest **** iver ever herd

 

[jteten]

They aren't even trying. Purdy can't throw to save his life.

His release point looks like Taylor Martinez and Sam Keller had an arm baby.

I love Mickey, but it’s tough to be an assistant and come in and take over for such a big loser like Frost who built a completely gutless culture. I would love to see what Mickey could do in just a couple of years of coaching bringing in his own players and staff. That would be great to see, but we don’t have that luxury – we need to find a proven winner.

Brett Bielema at Illinois is a perfect example how a good coach can turn around a program with no history and little resources. We need to find somebody who has done that, not somebody we “think” could do it.
