Should the Huskers be running the "I" formation more often?

I think they should, with Jano as the lead blocker, squirt a back out of a hole, maybe this would help the "O" line out a little. if we were 8-0, this board wouldn't even be up........

I have a feeling no matter what they run, with this coaching staff it simply won't be enough.

Absolutely.... And mix in some speed option as well. Might try some wildcat. I can sit at home and tell you what's coming. If I can ... I know the opposition can.

No push from the line. They're soft. I also recall when Callahan arrived and everybody on the bandwagon that now we're finally to run the west coast offense. We're finally to catch up with everybody else. Yeah, now this question is asked. Fickle fans.

We don't have either the right running backs or offensive line strength to run the "I" with consistent success.

I think without getting cute and simplifying we were able to see the talent that was recruited on the line shine against Wisconsin. There were holes open nearly all night for our backs. Dylan was not sacked at all.

Tonite I saw hints of the '95 Huskers. We have a lot of work to do but I think with Rhule and Holgerson, I think within the next 2-3 seasons, we will be on the ranking polls and pushing for the Big 10 Legends title and then? Who knows? Maybe a National title is in the future??

I think a good 'running' OC like Army's OC could have an awesome offense with this exact personnel. And the Army's OC only makes $190K.

There are some good high school defenses that would give our line fits.

Offensive is the right word. The Pipeline is clogged and needs a plumber ASAP. The you know what is backing up into the basement. That Focker is our offensive line.

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
