I am in between on this one but I thought the comeback showed lots of character and guts. I am with Riley - the team really competes. I just don't think this year's team has all the pieces in place. I don't really fault anyone in particular - not enough of an expert to say how to fix it.

What happened the first half, not sure could have been the climate change having relatives in Fla, I know what it is like this time of year. But, they showed they could last the 60 minutes while Miami began to crap out.

adjustments are keys to success. Games aren't aways going to go as planned early. The resolve to fight, unlike last year's Wisconsin game, and the know how to make adjustments - again unlike last year will help

They certainly never stopped fighting, nice to see...unfortunately that doesn't win games and they will still go 6-6 at best this year

People are WAY over reacting. These were gonna be two of our hardest games all year and we barely lost. BYU has proved their worth and kayaa is probably the best passer we see all year

I STILL have great confidence in this staff and it definitely was a learning moment for many of the players and especially Armstrong. I feel terrible for the young man but I think he grew up in the game.

Last couple of years it was "we can't adjust in game or at the half." Now these adjustments are made and everyone is upset. Hey, no one said this was going to be easy.

We only got back in it because Miami thought it was over and could not turn it back on.

Still no pass defense. Non-existent pass rush and DBs who can't cover.

The only reason the huskers came back in Q4 is because Miami took their foot off the gas. The Huskers are the team in quarters 1, 2, 3.

Same as before slow starts. Riley to old to turn around a program headed the wrong direction.

Besides avoiding an epic Bo like embarrasment, the come back doesn't mean anything. Miami got so far ahead of us that they took their foot off the pedal and allowed us to make it close. When both teams were playing as hard as they could, Miami completely dominated us.

I rather show heart than get destroyed. We gave ourselves a chance to win at least. If we hadnt shot ourselves in the foot with penalties and drops first half is close too

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
