One must keep in mind the caliber of the Maryland team. Smallish. Still, NU had fun that day and things worked. With that as basis, study Iowa's defense and determine what can be exploited. GBR!

I think the offensive line is just starting to look good!! The defense will need to blitz way more than it has in the past. Because without the blitz Iowa will have all day to pass!!

I will always believe our Huskers will win... and this is a perfect time to come out of their shell and build on last week's game. We have the coach, the facilities, the history, and the fans.

I believe we can do it now as my faith in the team has been restored for a win over Iowa that is tough but beatable and Purdue only lost 26-20 to them and Illinois lost 19-10.

The Huskers get the win - based on the offensive output against Wisconsin. Need to play clean game.

Just picking yes because the team can win...but historically, they don't show up for big games so I think Iowa will win, cover, and continue to chirp about 5 in a row and counting.

I'm hoping they can put a game together like they did against Wisconsin and if the defense can play like they did against Maryland we can win. The Huskers have to play perfect.

Huskers have been playing better last couple of weeks. If we can run the ball we can beat Iowa. Gotta score in the red zone, something Iowa's D has been really good at this year.

There were visible improvements in the Wisconsin game and more still against Maryland. I think they've turned a corner.

Hope I'm wrong Husker fans. Just don't think we're there yet. Iowa just does things too consistent and we still make far too many mistakes. We are missing some horsepower also.

Man I hated clicking this side but, I just didn't think even with the big win they looked that good. A lot of weak spots.

I’d LOVE to say they’ll beat Iowa. But, if the last ten years have taught us anything it’s the Huskers tend to flub games of substance. God I hope they play like they did against Maryland...

Iowa has gone toe to toe with every team they have played. Narrow losses against ranked teams. Sorry Huskers, this one will not be close. Hawks by 14.

Frost/staff have their work cut out with a team essentially inherited from the Mike Riley debacle. Until their own recruits are the majority, the whip is going to need to be cracked, repeatedly!

Back in the day, this wouldn't even be a topic if players were called out for toughness. But in today's world everyone is overly sensitive - drives me nuts. Football isn't for softies - toughen up

The players need a team meeting without the coaches. They (players) need to start calling out their teamates as a whole and decide to step up or keep losing. Basically a gut check and heart!

Some of the fan base wants to blame the coaching staff and already wants Frosts head, He did the right thing making it public to give a taste of what he is saying to the players. It is on players now

Maybe he has been doing it in private, and it has been like talking to a fence post. Maybe this is his only option. We don't have enough information here to know for sure..

I think that they definitely need to toughen up and i believe that's part of it. These players are used to losing and seemed more interested in getting out of the cold more than winning the game.

Clearly it didn't resonate with the team, on the field at least. No doubt about it, the statement did not change behaviors in a good way. I would have done the same, but it was a miss....

Look in the mirror Frost, and then forget about the loyalty factor and get tough with assistants. That last touchdown Purdue scored was ridiculous. DC can't seem to make adjustments. Call them out.

There could be other ways to go about it. Kids are different today. Not softer or bad attitudes, just different. Frost played with some really tough hombres, the likes of which we may never see again.
