Accounted for 4 TD's should be enough to win a game, although did have the costly interception.

We need to run the ball & hide our defense. We have to get 3rd & 1, 3rd & 3! If we had done that we don't have to rely on a weak D

Eric Farris

the o-line must improve

Stephen Johnson

A nebraska offense that cannot convert 3rd and 1 to 3 must be fixed.

Craig McClatchey

QB needs to go through the receiver progressions when passing. Some of our guys were WIDE OPEN at times.

Alan Blackburn

Improve the running game.

Mark-Andrew Reynolds

Offense must find an identity. Not a bad start though.

Millie J. Vrtiska

Need to improve the run game

We scored enough to win but giving up over 500 yards really hurt.

Visitor

Same old nu. All we hear about is 94-97. Well it's 2015. This staff won't be around for more than 5 -.500 years. Then we start over. Nu is an after thought. Nobody talks about us anymore. Nobody.

Ron Huffman

No pressure on the quarterback, bad pass coverage way to soft..

David MacKay

All we heard about was the attacking defense that was going to be used...sorry but I saw the same defense as I saw last year....field goal kicking game HAS to improve!

John Hofstetter

didn't make plays when we needed too. Need more pass rush and containment

Robert Hutsell

Defense needs experience

T David Andrew M

Only because 33 points were given away, and I couldn't comment on the offensive lines horrendous performance

Dan List

Too many big plays and not enough pressure on QB's.

Diego Rodriguez

Toss up, but we need to be great in one area and DL is the best shot. We were disappointing in this area considering the expectations.

Del Vanderbeek

NU did not defend the pass well enough, The corner backs need help and cannot stop 6'5 ends when they are less the 6'0.

Sagan Zavelo

33 points!!

Do you see the Huskers beating the point spread against Oklahoma this weekend?

OU is susceptible to the long passing game. NU pulls out some stops on offense. D keeps it close. OU by 3.

James Key

Im breaking out my 30yr old Number 7 jersey. Huskers by 7

Matt Seiler

Spencer is a guy who’s easily rattled (get it?) and figures to throw a few picks if pressured. I still think we lose but Huskers can move the ball through the air and force a few TOs to keep this game within 14. Small chance they even pull out the W

Mark Wane

I watched the Tulane game and I think Buffalo is a good team that the D shutdown. Plus I went to school in the 90’s and want us so badly to step up on National tv. We are due!! Skers

Mick Hanson

I drink all the Kool-aid, why not?

Bob Berg

Sooner's lose one game mid-season. Why not this one. Hopefully no one showed the Sooner team what Frost and company did to them in '96 and '97. We should play well for 3 quarters then their top guys may take over.

It's likely at some point in the game we'll be down a score or two. Does this team have the mental toughness to fight and mount a comeback or will they fold? I just don't think the team has that kind of confidence in themselves yet.

Ryan Moss

I can’t believe Nebraska fans have fallen so far that they discuss if they can’t beat the spread and not if they can beat OU.

Terry Busch

they have talent everywhere. We have a tiny bit of talent. It's a talent landslide.

Sporty361

No way! IL lost big to an unrated Virginia team. Sooners will do whatever they want to do regarding score. Tired of us ‘rebuilding’ when we can’t beat teams that out recruit us every year. Don’t those teams have to rebuild? Simply put we are either terrible recruiters or terrible developers.

Larry Smith

Big REd is playing well below the Sooner's level. I just hope they can keep it at the 21 points and not get buried in a ten td avalanche.

Steve Walker

They are still playing pretty bad. Offensive line is still not blowing anyone off the ball. Defense is still not getting a pass rush. Secondary is not as good as advertised. Hopefully there will be improvement.

USMC Sully

we have been down this road too many times to think otherwise

Wade Williams

We are not there yet. We put too much pressure on an improving defense. If NU could some how score 40 they might have a chance at the end of the game but....I'll call it 48-27 OU.

Matt Seiler

I believe that means they beat the spread

Bryan Petersen

Offensive line had yet to show we can run the ball between the tackles

Lots of teams are doing the exact same thing. Make everyone else accountable before just punishing the Huskers.

Randy Weitzenkamp

It's just a distraction, but it is the last thing we need right now. The timing of this news is extremely suspicious. Focus on taking care of business on the field and this will be ancient history in a month .

Frost is doing everything he can to try to get this program going again. That even means blatantly cheating and trying to cover up his cheating. This isn’t an oopsie, it’s desperation. Same with trying to run away from the OU game. He knows he’s in trouble and he just cost himself his buyout.
