The defense was slow last year. You can't hit them hard unless you can catch them.

I agree...but I believe the staff is recruiting speed and building them up, so I think all is well.

No, it means nothing, he is gone or he woulda squashed it and said he was taking his name out of consideration and he didn’t.

What else would he say...It really sucks here??? He hasn't said, "I'm not interested in the Penn State Job".

Memorial Stadium is one of the greatest venues in sports. Why shouldn't the folks in Lincoln, Omaha, and all of Nebraska get the opportunity to be entertained by any show worthy of a stadium sized audience? So much CHA-CHING!

I saw a Larry the Cable Guy show in Memorial Stadium. Didn't have anything to do with "sports"

Toughness will get you through the season. One good hit will kill your speed in an instant.
ReplyI know we need speed to win but I'm old school and still think our game needs to win in the trenches. Then open it up with speed.
ReplyI think with physicality the speed comes, actually. These days, you recruit speed (which is what the staff seems to be doing) then build them up. Make them physical to go along with that speed.
ReplyI like big hits and I cannot lie...
ReplySpeed kills, but Power kills and leaves a mark!
ReplyI would accept a loss only if NU had some great hits. I just want more violence!
ReplyMichigan,Wisconsin,and Iowa all kind of pushed the Huskers around last year on defense as well as offensively. Nebraska needs too get back to being the bullies of old time,and not only physically but
ReplyWe have and will continue to have speed at skillpostions.
Replyin big ten, physicality is where the team is getting crushed.
ReplyThey are already pretty fast!
ReplyWe need both, but our recent lack of physicality has been more pronounced.
ReplyThe strongest team will rise to the top most of the time. Those national championship team were very physical.
ReplyYou'll have your speed for a longer time if you are physical.
ReplyThe games are won in the trenches...if you can’t win there, you can’t win!
ReplyIt is Nebraska Football
ReplySpeed is vital, but physicality is King! We are talking FOOTBALL
ReplyI want to see Warren Sapp gasping for air again. And I want to see Texas grabbing Suh and Crick trying to keep them off of their QB.
ReplyToughness really shows up late in the game. The tougher team can wear down the opposition and dominate late.
ReplySpeed is important but not as much as good physical offensive and defensive lines. That's where the games are won and lost
Reply3rd and 4th down, short yardage futility for the last 5 years.
ReplyBig 10 teams like Wisconsin, Ohio State, and Iowa have physically pushed the Huskers around on both sides of the ball. It is time to return to Husker dominance on the line of scrimmage!!!!
ReplyPhysicality Is Key But Speed Is Needed To
Replyduh
ReplyIts the big10 so physicality is a must. See xamples of iowa and wiscy they didnt beat us w speed. Plus power football establishes a certain mindset and identity we have lost
ReplyWear the opponent down. Speed is great, but they can't catch you anyway when they can't get off the ground
Replyfalse choice we want fast and powerful
ReplyNeed both but it starts up front.
ReplyBecause
ReplyWe've got speed. In droves. What we need is toughness on BOTH lines of scrimmage.
ReplyStrength and stamina we got away from since our past winning ways. To see other teams tougher and stronger than us is unacceptable. Physicality is what we need to build around.
