You don't walk to the opposition's side of the ball to cheer your defense on. Clearly an attempt to get an illegal advantage. Iowa has already been penalized twice this year for that infraction. Didn't lose us the game but certainly reveals the character of the Iowa coaching staff.

I'm really on the border with this. This isn't the first time this happened at NU so maybe they should have learned from past era's mistakes. It is dirty though and should be penalized. It'd be similar a DL yelling things to try to get the center to snap early, they shouldn't be allowed to do that.

At first I was with enough with excuses. And I'm still that way and we need to take responsibility for things we control. But after watching, that is dirty and at the very least unprofessional. Makes Iowa look terrible and especially after Kirk goes after Nebraska and downplays it.

I agree with Coach Ferentz...what is this golf? Frost is majoring in minors...what about all the snaps that havent been against Iowa.

It was bush league, but we've got to focus on upping our own game. We made more than enough unforced errors to cost us the game.

Come on man!! Figure it out, stop with all the reasons why there are countless mistakes. If its not a muffed punt, it's a missed block sack fumble, or its a bad holding call, personal foul, false start, Florida guy transferring, so on and so forth. Whiners are not winners. Be a winner, not a whiner

I agree dirty play should be penalized, but this has been going on for two years. During the final drive, I didn't have a great deal of confidence we would be able to score without one of the final snaps sailing wide. That is a sad statement to make.

If this coaching staff would finally held players accountable and the players held each other accountable this still would not be an allowable excuse, toughen the hell up. Since none of the accountability is occurring our Coach needs to shut up stop whining and do his job.

I'm still a Frost fan and we have to give this some time but... ENOUGH WITH THE EXCUSES.. just suck it up and play football and correct the constant and reoccurring mistakes. Let's end this love fest with the players and set them on the bench for a series or two until they calm down and can play

It’s not the first time that our center has had problems snapping. He been doing that for 3 seasons. At this point repetitions and ‘coaching’ won’t fix the issue. It is part of who he is and that won’t change. Maybe time for Jurgens to move to guard and find another player to mold into a center.

excuses is all i hear....people try to do this all the time. If he is having that much trouble lets move him out of the center pos. It is time to be quiet and now start winning. let your winning do the talking. If anything bring up that we have played over 370 def snaps and not one holding call!!!!!

Frost has an excuse for everything, the players, the former coaching staff, this latest accusation has made Nebraska a laughing stock. Even a former Husker lineman said it was BS.

I "kind of get the clap cadence" when there are full stadiums but there are no full stadiums. Go with a hardcount. Even the clapped cadence, I think it was Northwestern that said they knew when to shift on the d-line right before the snap to cause our o lineman confusion.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

I doubt that this late in the season this change will help. I hope it does but i have no faith left. The O-line is just horrible.

Good thing we played buffs early. They have improved throughout the season and have been rated most of year. They are moving forward while we are retreating.

My heart says yes, but my head says no. Are they capable? Absolutely, but we haven't seen enough consistency in any of the 3 phases of the game to warrant any confidence that we can win one of the last three games.

Why don't we recruit the Army's offensive coordinator who really know how to develop a running game? And he only makes $190,000 per year.

They have to fight for it. I will be honest and say it depends on which NU team shows up and that’s why I think it’s going to be tough. They could either win the last 3 games but they could also lose the last 3 games.

Nope...hate to say it but we need a dual threat at QB. It was worth the try, but DR is better off served playing for a program that best suits his drop back talent and at this point in time it's not here. We will drop all three and maybe giving Lincoln Riley two weeks to plan...it's not good !

Sadly, no, I don't think it will happen. There are just too many problems with every aspect of their game. Especially offense and special teams.

I am not hopeful that this team will win another game this year. Just about every phase of the game is sub par. We have clearly regressed as the season has unfolded. Don't forget how much Jeff Simms was hyped last year; how did that turn out. I don't have confidence in the coaching staff.
