Yeah WD, Marshall had fallen down.......but geez, did you notice how many bodies he was throwing the ball into??? If he hadn't fallen, maybe it's just incomplete but MAN, why throw it in all that congestion anyway??

Whatever.....AM certainly made up for it, huh?

AM never looked. He stares to the right the entire time then just turns and throws it back
to the left without even looking. He's got to do better than that. RB's get knocked down like all the time that when the screen is recognized. That was all on Murray. Still though... 45-31

Now back on CTG... not impressed dude. Not impressed at all. I doubt he will ever have
that much talent on the field at once, and we get steam rolled on the ground again.
Plus as others have noted... it's not just getting run over. It's about looking confused..
it's about the offense snapping the ball while we are not even lined up.

Funny stuff.... look back at how I felt going into this season, but at the end I give
CMB an A- and I'm gonna give TG a C+.

Yea it is pretty ovious, that Neb looked at the Ala game and deceided to run,run, and run somemore.
It baffles me as to why we can not stop the run. Last year, I think we allowed teams an avg of 80 something years per game. We have the same personnel and just get run all over, I mean straight up the gut. Like I said on another thread, don't believe in CTG and have not for the past 2 years. We have teams scoring 25 to 30 points on us and the only teams we hold to less points are the Vandys, KY, and the cup cakes we play.

If it were not for the offence, we would not have won 12 games this year. I just hope that CMR will do an evaluation, and see that our D with all this talent, that he is just not the right man to get our D up to the standards of USC,LSU,Fla, and Alb.

wartdawg, good assessment.

One of TG's big gripes was the fact that Nebraska was snapping the ball too quickly on the next play. If that is his main argument, we do have defensive coaching problems. Texas A&M would probably cause him to take a ride in the stadium ambulance. Seems to be the wave of the future, many teams moving in that direction. Good defensive coaches will and always have figured out ways to combat offensive strategies. As Growl said, no time for excuses.

Sometimes great athletes can overcome bad coaching.
