Toughness will get you through the season. One good hit will kill your speed in an instant.

I 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.

I 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.

I would accept a loss only if NU had some great hits. I just want more violence!

Michigan,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

We need both, but our recent lack of physicality has been more pronounced.

You'll have your speed for a longer time if you are physical.

I 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.

Toughness really shows up late in the game. The tougher team can wear down the opposition and dominate late.

Speed is important but not as much as good physical offensive and defensive lines. That's where the games are won and lost

Big 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!!!!

Its 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

Wear the opponent down. Speed is great, but they can't catch you anyway when they can't get off the ground

Strength 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.

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.

What's your reaction to the Huskers' switch to rugby-style punting?

If something is broken, what does it hurt to try something different. Insanity- Doing the same thing and expecting a different result.

I like this style of punting. With the roll-out, it keeps the defense honest by keeping them in position in case of runs/throws by the punter.

Anything less than a drop kick just isn't trying. Additionally, NU had a punter who averaged 44 yards a kick and he had to transfer for a player to be named later. Maybe get the rugby guy in and set in place before upending what would have been a solid punting game.

The event is a non-starter compared to the structure of actual plays and the support of young men working to find their place on the team.

If I want to see a carnival or a faire I'll go see one. This change shows fear of being a competitor on the part of Rhule and NU Athletics. It's embarrassing.

Losing the best recruiting tool of the spring and losing the money it would bring in is not smart in my opinion.

It's not a game. This was our tradition. Not a good decision on Rhule's part.
