We are in W zone which give the kids a boost.

I really don't see how a 1-point win over a team like Purdue is a big deal. Photo credit: Journal Star

Just shows how far the program has dropped that we are only 1 point better than Purdue!

Ron Huffman

Players still play like a monkey....ball

Paul F Edwards

Just think...if we would of had 400+ yards on the ground, instead thru the air can you imagine what the score would have been? No offensive line play, so no ground game. Which is why rushing yards are superior to passing yards.

Tim Schroeder

One TD with 14 seconds left didn't change what I saw for the other 59:46 of the game.

James Traut

Not so lucky in coming games? The game coaching and strength coaching are really poor— mediocre player development and a lot of injuries are prevalent. I suspect the season ends on a poor note.

Arlie Rauch

Because Purdue is not a first-rate team. I'm glad NU won, but it likely doesn't prove much.

Take a look at the average SEC OL.... we need more work and development.

Brian Machan

We need a complete overhaul of personnel. Coaching is there, talent isn't.

Glad to see an acknowledgement that the O wasn't working. This shows some urgency about winning which I appreciate.

Bill Greim

Seems pretty obvious that when something is not working very well and you don’t know how to fix it you bring in outside experts for advise. Common practice.

Brad Bredenkamp

Holgerson has enough experience that he should be able to watch some film and the players in practice and call plays that play to their strengths. I'm betting he is also smart enough to stick with what's working until the other team stops it, and to develop some offensive rhythm.

Robert Lloyd

Anything is better than Satterfield. But I don't know why we didn't go after the US Army's OC who only makes $190k and absolutely knows how to run the ball.

Brad Bredenkamp

Because Army's OC can call the triple option and run the ball, but he probably doesn't know how to call for a pro-style quarterback. Plus it is very unlikely that Army's OC is going to jump ship right now the way their season is going. Maybe gets a look after the season if Holgerson doesn't stay.

Dick Plock

Needed change for quite a many games. Our offensive & defense coordinators are being out smarted.

Jean McGee

Satt has been wasting Raiola’s passing strength.

I refuse to get my hopes up

Installing a whole new offense would be very difficult. You might be able to refine a small portion but learning the timing and terminology would be difficult.

michael daly

The habits of almost 2 years don't change overnight. That being said, A new , more forceful, high expectation coach, might be able to snap them awake and Go
