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.

He played team football and didn't try to be the star.

He made a lot better decisions. Took sacks. A punt is a lot better than a turnover

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.

He played within his ability and strengths. Should have done this all year.

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.

Being at the game. I observed his confident demeanor running the offense. His throws were timely and accurate.

Very nice performance. The coaches really adapted to showcase Tommy's strengths. Great job by the coaches too. Move forward. Go Big Red.

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.

I don't like it, but as long as we're going to play around with nonsense alternate uniforms, the boys might as well learn wi win in them.

Because we as fans should let the team wear whatever makes them excited and quit bringing up times 30 plus years ago like the uniforms had anything to do with how the games turned out.

The Redcoats were intimidating as is and didn't change to all Red on skirmish day.

Traditional is much more intimidating. One color uniforms make players look smaller (except for all white.)

Bad choice and ugly. For those old enough to remember, we got Irvin Fryar out of New Jersey because he looked better in our uniforms than the ugly Penn State uniforms. Why change for the sake of change when you have the better all ready in place. Sounds like the management of Cracker Barrel.

Is the 34½-point spread against Akron about right?

Because the poll was still open on the Monday after the game... And I could not see the percentages without voting.

They have the talent, they need to take the step of winning the games they should win in the manner they should win them. Don’t play down to the level of the opponent.

I do not believe some of the glaring problems with the run defense have not been fixed, and Akron will exploit them.

The D-line against Cincy wasn't overly impressive, our run game was relatively unproductive, and we had some lucky breaks (even if good play contributed). The next two weeks will be important for closing gaps; I don't think we'll wallop Akron quite by 30+ points. I'm guessing we end up 17
