Want to see what the new offense will look like.

Craig Casper

Because it has the biggest opportunity to suck.

David Moore

Passing scheme and how the running game looks will be what's meaningful. Linebacker may be as big an issue, but how they fair against our offense isn't necessarily indicative of performance against other teams.

Buster Crabb

Theoretically the defense will be further along, but I want to see where Riley is taking the bus.

Kevin Hamilton

Interested in seeing solid consistency on both sides of the ball.

Robert Lloyd

This always seems more difficult for a new system and for it to jell quickly. I want to see a great running game develop and an assortment of QBs to look at. Is Nabity (splg?) going to break into the rotation? And most importantly... will they run on first down? If not, it will be a long season.

I just can't wait to see how our D does in a simplified system that turns them loose. I think it will be a good thing

Christian Bengel

It's obvious how much impact the defense can have, just look back at the 2009 Huskers. The offense was horrible, but the defense nearly won us the conference championship.

If your defense is so good they score more consistently than an offense, things are good...Playstation Coaching 101

Faye Cook

A great defense can save the game for an not so great offense. stop the other guy from scoring, and you win, win, win.

Matt Maxwell

I just want to see them fly around and make plays. Go Blackshirts!

Kris Kazlauskas

I am excited about the development of the quarterbacks, but I want to see a defense that doesn't suffer blowout losses.

Do you think Trev Alberts was correct to push for the coaching staff changes before season end?

The defense has made progress. The offense not so much. The real problem is Frost's dedication to Martinez. Adrian is a great guy, but his minuses exceed his pluses.

Nate Stineman

It had to be done and it clear that things are going to happen at NU.

Frank Johnson

The team was not going to become better with their existing staff. Make the cut and start improving.

If you are not going to make new hires before the end of the season anyway, what was the purpose in firing them now? It will be interesting to see how the offense performs, but I can't see this as beneficial.

Are the problems the Huskers have had closing out games more due to scheme or execution issues?

In just 2 years UCF implemented Frost's offense and was executing it FLAWLESSLY...but they still look like the Keystone cops in year 4 at Nebraska..
