I would wager that no team in football has ever been as mystified by receiving a punt as we have this millenium.

We can talk about building for the next couple of years but I just don't think this group of players is redeemable.

Well, at the half, time to go spray all the "ball catchers" down from head to toe with stickum.

17 Nebraska points off three Illini turnovers. Those turnovers also represent opportunities lost for the offense to score more points. How much are they down? Oh yeah, 17. Who gets the ball to start the second half? Oh yeah, Illinois. Worst case scenario without those three turnovers = 21-21 and Illinois getting the ball.

:frustrated:

Stampley drop, Mays drop/Bush fumble = at least 2 fg
2 fumbled punts = 10 pts
without killing ourselves we're down 1 or possibly up:rage:

They look competent on offense. They seem to have a good grasp of the system. They're a couple of good receivers from being a truly dynamic offense.

On the defense, they just don't have the personnel. They look slow. They look undersized.....it looks like a MAC caliber group.

On special teams, those two punts, are 100% on the special teams quote. 1)Anything inside the 10, let it go. That's HS type stuff. 2)If you have to dive to catch it.....let it go. Again, HS type stuff.

So, some good, some bad, some stupid = 4-8

If Corbin was on the bike, what's the likelihood he's back in second half?
