Finally Nebraska sport writers are taking off their rose glasses and viewing the Line issues which has been growing (girth not strength) since Solich days when I saw the first fat lineman.

Dana Holgorson doesn't know what a run first offense is. I love the aggressive nature of his offenses but we will NEVER be great without being run first. Run first and then air raid.

If we hadn't lost to Michigan I would have felt it was a one off. The lack of adjustments looks like a coaching issue with multiple coaches offense and defense. The offensive line is pathetic and needs an upgrade.

Nebraska has to prove it is not the same old story…until they do by definition it is.

Incompetent coaching staff, admitted out coached, the defensive coordinator didn’t even know who was playing in the second half

Need to come up with an offensive that fits the talent we have but doubt that will happen.

Nebraska is known over the years to have struggled against running Quarterbacks, they have to make sure that doesn’t happen today!!!

I think our OL is the most problematic thing, not Emmett Johnson. If MSU gets on a roll and stops Dylan then we are in trouble.

Any time you stop the run, you make a team one dimensional

the OL has to play better. the running backs can't run if there aren't any holes to run into. they have to protect the QB, 1 or 2 sacks are acceptable, but they can't give up 7 again.

Nebraska hasn't shown all we have offensively. Environment will be great for us, tough for Michigan. Plus, I never bet on games, but was thinking about putting down $100. Didn't do it. Then a friend called out of the blue who is visiting Las Vegas, who asked if I wanted to bet. Yes! It's a sign.

I just rewatched 2024 CO Game. MI this year doesn't look as good as CO last year. NE this year has better offense and special teams. Defense? We handled CO and I think we will beat MI

The D line scares me and the lack of pressure on the Opposing QB is a huge concern, havent been able to stop the run against 3 weak teams so far this year and Michigan loves to run the ball, I think this game could get away from us, god I hope I am wrong

Still haven't proven that we are on that level. Inability to stop the run or get pressure on the QB will be our downfall.

We can't control the LOS. We have no DL. We throw too much. Our best players/coaches left. And... it's effing Michigan. We ain't gonna win. Oh, and our HC is a CEO, not a game planner.

N hasnt won anything worth mentioning for near 20 yrs. And, the D-line is poor against the run and in pressuring the qb. N will be lucky to keep it within 10.
