Official Game Thread: COLORADO @ Nebraska --- 9/8 @ 1:30

[Buffnik]

Really have to hand it to the coaching staff, halftime adjustments worked. Guess they finally had enough film. Aggressive play calling the likes we haven't seen in ... ever...too!

Playcalling has gotten more aggressive as the talent changed the odds in our favor with aggressive calls.

Congrats to the BUFFs for a well-deserved win.
A true freshman QB and a walk-on backup almost cost you the game, but gifts from the officials and turnovers by the Cornhuskers handed you the game and in our first live game of the year. The future looks bright for the Cornhuskers. Any bets on which of us wins a NATTY first?

If you want, we can put you in touch with RamNation. They have multiple contacts in the FBI, and the Buffs have a big file.

gdi. He’s really improved. Big loss.

 

[The Alabaster Yak]

Does he have a RS available? Would that even be a worthwhile move with Noy?

Not good. He will have a red shirt though

New red-shirt rule come into play on this?

Yes, but I guess after thinking about it you’d need to ask Noy to postpone a scholarship another year

 

[Jeric]

Davis got a schollie, right? Time to earn it.

 

[CitizenKane]

I have to give the coaches credit the D played the run mich better in the second half.

son of a b***h that's a huge loss. Any chance that was on the punt that I thought was a roughing the punter that wasn't called? Just trying to make sure I have enough fuel for my eternal hatred of the fuskers.

Think it was the one where Kinney delivered a HUGE hit on one of the returns.

Second half was markedly improved.

I need no more additional fuel for my hatred. It goes to the core. Feeling pretty ****ing good right now. Better dead than red. #ILoveCoachMac

Any word on Laviska and his ailment?

Posted this in the Laviska thread but F it. Can't be posted enough!

Any more questions?

 

[Scotch]

Scott Frost looks like Todd in Breaking Bad.

 

[jkppkjjkp]

Any more questions?

Yeah, is he hurt?; because he's real good and we need him.

 

[Medford M.]

Just back from game.

Couple things. The concerns early in the thread about the line were very valid. D line wasn’t actually getting destroyed. LBs were not stepping up and filling holes in 1st half. Taylor and Wells were also doing a very poor job of keeping the edge. Now the D line wasn’t winning up front, but they weren’t getting killed either.

O line on the other hand. Weren’t opening holes, and were missing a bunch of assignments in pass pro. O line play got a lot better when a certain left tackle went down. Sherman was much more effective.

All in all, Nebraska has lines that are designed to run the ball and stop the run. I doubt we see a line that big on either side the rest of the season. Also, when Chev actually commited to the run in 2nd half, the line started figuring it out, and there were lanes being opened.

The older Nub fans were pretty nice. The younger ones though...wow...

 

[Shldr2Shldr]

Reports that he left the locker room in a sling with some kind of shoulder injury. No idea how serious.

 

[Kenneth]

Holy crap. We had 44 yards rushing. Nebraska had 330 yards. Glad we won but that’s just not acceptable.

 

[MtnBuff]

He made multiple huge throws, didn't turn the ball over once despite throwing 50 passes and taking 10+ hits.

He wasn't perfect, but he was really good.

All things considered with the pressure he was under and our lack of success much of the game on the ground I don't know what more people would want from him.

New red-shirt rule come into play on this?

He would have been eligible for a RS under the old run getting hurt before completing 25% of the season.

Where the new rule could come into play is if he were to return and punt in a game or two at the end of the season and still save a year.

 

[SerenityBuff]

This is great!
