The coaches for the first time this year called a game to his strengths. and he responded with a great performance. Hopefully Riley and Co. learned what Nebraska football is suppose to look like.

Only threw 19 times -- it should always be like that!

For one of the few times in his career the play calling played to his strengths.....if they play call games like that then he could have an outstanding senior season and play a notch ahead of this heralded freshman O'Brien....... Kuddos to Langsdorff and Riley for what they did.

Hard to pick this one over Michigan State, but when you game plan to his strengths and the O-line dominates I think you'll get a W every time. 10 of his 12 completions went for 1st downs.

He was asked to play within his strengths, and he responded with accuracy and authority. It was fun watching him do it! If that's the plan for 2016, it could be a good year.

Played within himself; not attempting to extend plays beyond what he should have (take a short loss vs. a big loss or turnover). Better decision making. When he did run, it was generally the best choice.

Tommy didnt throw the ball 48 times and the offense didnt rely on his decision making....I hope this is the offense going forward...POWER FOOTBALL=NEBRASKA FOOTBALL

Threw it out of bounds when he was pressured and limited passing relying mostly on the run.

Looking at the schedule, 5-0 on the front end is a definite possibility. Going 3-4 on the backend is doable. Having said that, there's still no consistency with this team, making 5-7 just as much of a possibility.

The schedule actually is favorable if you look at not just who we play, but when we play them. Looking at the non con, we'll definitely come out of the gate 3-0, then MSU & MD. We can win those. That would be 5-0. 3-4 on the back end is doable, even if you pencil in IU, OR, & OSU as definite L's.

8 wins.. Lol. We'll be lucky to get half of that. Do you know who our coach is?

Never would believe this, but we could come away with only 2-4 wins. I do love the new QB, the new DC coordinator and new OL coach. But no proven RBs, limited personnel in the DL,, Rhule has never learned the run first offense, and we have TOO MANY coaches. A hat on backwards isn't going to help.

We saw what we saw last season and that means little hope we can win 5-6 in 2026. Too many new things to know what is going to happen but easy to assume 8 wins is out of the question.

I hate to be this negative but I think we'll be lucky to make a bowl game 😔 Between not being able to beat a ranked opponent, the coaching carousel, no proven QB or RB and just sucking the last 25 years I'm starting to lose hope and lose faith in this staff. GBR 😭

I'm hopeful, but six wins seems most likely until the the team proves itself with a new QB and rebuilt lines.

Not possible. Lost our best player to the NFL draft. New OL coach and DC. Major rebuild. Scary to think this is year 4 and NU is talking about a major rebuild. Rhule sells the Kool Aid hard in the off season. GBR!!!

QB turnover machine. No D tackles. No RBs. Good Luck. 6-6 is the absolute ceiling. 5-7 is what it will be.

He seems more than just a mobile QB, he plays with abandon and spunk. Why wasn't he here right out of high school? But how could we have lost Ekeler? Have we turned into the dumbest program in America?

Of course, it should since we had a statue QB, once Lateef was in the offense changed to suit his skill set, and so it follows that Dana will tweak the offense to suit Colandea's skill set and with a new o-line coach changes come.
