We have yet to win a 2020 game where we didn't get "spotted" at least 17 points early in the game. That said, I think we finally win a game where our offense has to show up in the 2nd half.

You don't walk to the opposition's side of the ball to cheer your defense on. Clearly an attempt to get an illegal advantage. Iowa has already been penalized twice this year for that infraction. Didn't lose us the game but certainly reveals the character of the Iowa coaching staff.

I'm really on the border with this. This isn't the first time this happened at NU so maybe they should have learned from past era's mistakes. It is dirty though and should be penalized. It'd be similar a DL yelling things to try to get the center to snap early, they shouldn't be allowed to do that.

At first I was with enough with excuses. And I'm still that way and we need to take responsibility for things we control. But after watching, that is dirty and at the very least unprofessional. Makes Iowa look terrible and especially after Kirk goes after Nebraska and downplays it.

It was bush league, but we've got to focus on upping our own game. We made more than enough unforced errors to cost us the game.

Come on man!! Figure it out, stop with all the reasons why there are countless mistakes. If its not a muffed punt, it's a missed block sack fumble, or its a bad holding call, personal foul, false start, Florida guy transferring, so on and so forth. Whiners are not winners. Be a winner, not a whiner

I agree dirty play should be penalized, but this has been going on for two years. During the final drive, I didn't have a great deal of confidence we would be able to score without one of the final snaps sailing wide. That is a sad statement to make.

If this coaching staff would finally held players accountable and the players held each other accountable this still would not be an allowable excuse, toughen the hell up. Since none of the accountability is occurring our Coach needs to shut up stop whining and do his job.

I'm still a Frost fan and we have to give this some time but... ENOUGH WITH THE EXCUSES.. just suck it up and play football and correct the constant and reoccurring mistakes. Let's end this love fest with the players and set them on the bench for a series or two until they calm down and can play

It’s not the first time that our center has had problems snapping. He been doing that for 3 seasons. At this point repetitions and ‘coaching’ won’t fix the issue. It is part of who he is and that won’t change. Maybe time for Jurgens to move to guard and find another player to mold into a center.

excuses is all i hear....people try to do this all the time. If he is having that much trouble lets move him out of the center pos. It is time to be quiet and now start winning. let your winning do the talking. If anything bring up that we have played over 370 def snaps and not one holding call!!!!!

Frost has an excuse for everything, the players, the former coaching staff, this latest accusation has made Nebraska a laughing stock. Even a former Husker lineman said it was BS.

I "kind of get the clap cadence" when there are full stadiums but there are no full stadiums. Go with a hardcount. Even the clapped cadence, I think it was Northwestern that said they knew when to shift on the d-line right before the snap to cause our o lineman confusion.

We go toe to toe with wisconsin every other year, Iowa almost every year, Ohio State for a random 30 minutes, and are in position to beat NW every time. But until these guys start tasting victory and actually get used to it, losing seems to be the narrative. Channeling a little Pelini wouldn't hurt!

No, because as much as I thought Frost was the guy his teams don't improve, they are consistently mediocre to poor and that is coaching. Unless Ten of Iowa's starters go down with Covid there is no reason to expect anything but them being consistently mediocre to poor.

No running game and defensive scheme doesn't work. Can't stop run and play too far off the receivers in the secondary.

Until we prove we can beat the lowest level teams, we surely won't beat a consistent mid-to high level team which Iowa has been. Very Sad State of Affairs.

Iowa is too strong in the trenches, they have a running game, and are a disciplined football team. Unfortunately Nebraska is none of those things.
