  • Just sassing, Hoss. Armstrong is my B10 fantasy league QB. I was disappointed.
    Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?
    Brady Hoke: You know.....not....good.

    • Gotcha...we're a testy bunch these days, LOL.

      I do think its a point that needs to be made though. Many of our fans somehow think this is still Tom Osborne's Nebraska, and that we have better players than Purdue...just because. We do not.

      With Armstrong and Newby (Who I am not enamored with, but he's our best back) on the field I would think we had a talent edge, but still not by a whole bunch, and lacking in some critical areas (DE, OL). We still might have gotten beat on the last play, who knows. It would have looked better than that.

      QB play, and the ability to pressure the QB, is paramount these days. We're sorely lacking in both areas.

      • All I know is that when you go to Purdue and give up a shitton of points to a bunch of backups, you're screwed. Completely and unequivocally screwed. Start keeping tabs on coaches you'd like to see replace Reilly. It may be the only thing that gets you through the next couple seasons.

          When your QB commits five turnovers- four of them inside your 22 yardline- you tend to give up points, regardless of who you play or who your coach is.

          • You guys should have fired Pelini immediately following 70-31

              Our backup was Imani Cross, a notorious stiff who chose Nebraska at the 11th hour because we were the only program to let him play RB.
              Blough has only played in 5 games (as a freshman) + only received other offers from New Mexico St and Memphis.
              Markell Jones (freshman) only received other offers from crappy MAC teams.
              You were right about the 5 year recruiting. SB Nation has Nebraska ranked 23rd, Purdue is 61st.

              Nebraska's loss to Purdue is embarrassing to that program.

              • Well, that five games is about three more than Fyfe has played in. Hell, Fyfe came out of our spring game as a forgotten player, let alone garnering any Elite 11 attention.

                No idea why Markell Didn't get more offers as the No. 11 RB in the midwest...maybe because he was locked in on Purdue for some time before enrolling last December. Regardless...he's no Imani Cross.

                  • Hoss still believes Riley is the guy.. And it will end up fine.

                    I don't.

                      Never said that. I think that, given the circumstances and limited evidence, one cannot make an informed decision either way. Definitely not after playing a game with a Wing T quarterback from GISH in his first start.

                      IMO, if a person has already decided that he's not the guy...its because that person has chosen to.

                      • Well the view from 1,000 miles away is that you guys are FUCKED. I don't say that lightly. You can't give up 55 points to Purdue if Angela Lansbury is your QB. That's just science.

                        • Out on the Nebraskan frontier, you need a coach like John Wayne, just my 2 cents.

                            Its not science...its called Turnover Margin.

                            • And if Rich Rodriguez teams played good defense they would be very good. And if Rudock could hit deep passes, we'd be undefeated...
