Game Thread: Northwestern @ Nebraska

[TheC]

We MUST get at least one first down here

 

[HawkCat]

At least we can still disrupt the itch of eczema.

The 0 yards of offense by NU in the first quarter is giving me a rash.

 

[benoitdenizetl]

The D is looking great, though. Braun has brought major improvement.

Yup. D getting better as season goes. Offense just astonishingly bad without Bryant.

 

[Deeringfish]

Yes and they seem to be getting better as the season progresses.

 

[WestCoastWildcat]

Defense is playing great but our offense needs a spark. This is a strong first half for the defense but offense must step up somehow for NU to win. Go Cats. Just heard we have 14 plays on o for zero yards.

 

[Gatabowl]

Lol Tyus really is slow. Let’s capitalize on this.

 

[phatcat]

Cue GCG

 

[Deeringfish]

Too bad that wasn't Himan.

 

[Gatabowl]

Man, it seems like Sullivan is taking some huge hits.

 

[phatcat]

Wow Jack Olsen

 

[Gatabowl]

Two perfect kicks. Impressive in the wind too.

 

[mesacat]

Do we have play action in our playbook?

 

[NUcats92]

You would think with all the running we did on that last drive try play action pass I know the oline can’t hold up for too long, but at least try to hit your receivers because all the defense was gone do is Pen their ears back

 

[stpaulcat]

Ummm...,who was it that poo-poo'd my call tp play Himon and Tyus in the backfield against Nebraska? First drive so far.

 

[FanatiCat]

Lol Tyus really is slow. Let’s capitalize on this.

I take back what I said a couple weeks ago about him being deceptively fast, but I do like his style of running and I think it was exactly what we needed to get that drive going.

I just wish that particular carry had gone to Himon!

 

[NUCatswin]

Need a stop on this drive

 

[Gatabowl]

I am not sure it’s entirely his fault. He put on a ton of weight and I wonder whether the team wanted him to just be larger.

He was slow in high school as well. Glad to see the OL finally opening up some holes.

 

[HawkCat]

The DL injury situation is worrisome.

 

[FanatiCat]

&&$!?!?&

We did not need that with no time left before halftime. Afraid the tide has turned and the D is just not going to hold out while the O continues to flounder.

Well he was down on the 1 inch line but it sure they will see enough to overturn it.

 

[Gatabowl]

prob wouldn’t have mattered but how is there not a goal line camera?

 

[TheC]

Clearly short, but they'd score on the next play anyway

 

[FanatiCat]

Weird to have a camera at that spot and not right down the goal line.

Still a four point game. You never know in college football. If the cats make some kind of adjustment, younger know.

 

[TheC]

Use Himon more!

 

[Deeringfish]

Totally agree. It makes no sense.

 

[elgatoloco]

Elbow on the white, ball about a foot behind. Should have been overturned.

 

[Deeringfish]

Who benefits from the Unleaded 88 ads?

 

[FanatiCat]

Sullivan won’t even pull the trigger on a downfield pass when we have only 10 seconds to score. Arrrrrgh at least try.

 

[Gatabowl]

Insane.

 

[TheC]

Well... that was dumb

 

[Gatabowl]

Who benefits from the Unleaded 88 ads?

The corn lobby

 

[phatcat]

Who benefits from the Unleaded 88 ads?

Corn farmers. Only

 

[NUCat320]

Who benefits from the Unleaded 88 ads?

Farmers receiving corn subsidies.

 

[catcrazy]

Time for Aidan Gray

 

[Deeringfish]

Farmers receiving corn subsidies.

OH, my car runs terribly on that.

 

[Deeringfish]

Time for Aidan Gray

Can Laush not throw at all?

 

[phatcat]

Time for Aidan Gray

QB is below an actual OL (coached and developed properly) on our.list of problems.ake no mistake, we need a top QB badly, Caleb Williams couldn't do anything behind this line

 

[Gatabowl]

The halftime guys are literally holding back laughter talking about the first half

 

[NUCat320]

Use Himon more!

Porter is the weakest of the three running backs. Tyus has a little shake and Himon has much better speed.
