Didn't get man handled like last year. S&C is finally paying dividends. We still need to clean up things in the area of penalties and execution.

Team looked bigger. Offensive line seems stronger. A few playmakers on both sides. Not real crazy about playing so soft in defensive backfield but guess they did not want to get beat deep. Hopeful!

Effort - they played hard till the end, which they haven't always done the last two years.

We saw for the first time in years our players showing they can play with anybody. We need some running backs, but then we are good to go.

Progress was there in terms of tackling, O/D line play, good offense decision making, and overall depth. No progress in turnovers and bad penalties and being our own worst enemy.

I see hope. Let's add consistency to hope and we should turn some heads this year. We need to stop the mental errors (time mgmt, fumbles, penalties). There is no margin of error. Fix these =Progress

Even the announcers who normally hate us saw progress. Nebraska won the trenches half of the time, offense got north and south quick, linebacker play was solid finally. This team is much improved

Could have been 38-31. Should have been 45-31. But was 52-17. For every 10 good snaps there's always one drive killer. Glad that the offense went North to south and limited the sideline play. GBR

It's all about the big uglies in the trenches, and they have vastly improved.

Progress is there but quite honestly the celebrating of moral victories against upper echelon teams is getting a bit tired. 52 -17 is 52-17. Its a thrashing.

Hard to tell getting blown out yet again. I'll hope to see the improvement against lesser competition that will hopefully result in wins.

If something is broken, what does it hurt to try something different. Insanity- Doing the same thing and expecting a different result.

I like this style of punting. With the roll-out, it keeps the defense honest by keeping them in position in case of runs/throws by the punter.

Anything less than a drop kick just isn't trying. Additionally, NU had a punter who averaged 44 yards a kick and he had to transfer for a player to be named later. Maybe get the rugby guy in and set in place before upending what would have been a solid punting game.

Too much hassle (200 miles away) for an unknown event.

The event is a non-starter compared to the structure of actual plays and the support of young men working to find their place on the team.

If I want to see a carnival or a faire I'll go see one. This change shows fear of being a competitor on the part of Rhule and NU Athletics. It's embarrassing.

I can see both sides. But it is losing a tradition.

Losing the best recruiting tool of the spring and losing the money it would bring in is not smart in my opinion.

It's not a game. This was our tradition. Not a good decision on Rhule's part.
