There seems to be a lot less QB runs from Nebraska. Frost must have really turned over the reigns. Unless Thompson just isn't really a runner.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:16 PM ^
In Frost's reign at Nebraska, he rarely turns over the reins.
August 27th, 2022 at 2:42 PM ^
If the halftime score holds, they may draw the reins on Frost's reign in Week Zero, which one might have thought was mathematically impossible.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:23 PM ^
He's not calling the plays anymore. It's Whipple's show now.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:13 PM ^
NU QB looks good?
August 27th, 2022 at 1:15 PM ^
Which NU?
August 27th, 2022 at 1:35 PM ^
If you're referring to the UNL (University of Nebraska -Lincoln) QB, I agree. Talent-wise, he looks more good than terrible so far. Those last two throws in particular were pretty impressive.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:15 PM ^
credit card machines are down at Aviva Stadium so they decided to give away free beer, 4 beer limit. pretty crazy.
4 Guinness for me, thanks.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:15 PM ^
Go NU! Beat NU!
So nu?
August 27th, 2022 at 1:16 PM ^
Thompson looks like an upgrade, low bar and all that, but he does not appear to be awful.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:17 PM ^
Urban is on Fox? I won't be watching pregame shows.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:48 PM ^
Where else would you go if you're a human douche bag, a controversial laughing stock and pretty much unemployable anywhere else? --FOX
August 27th, 2022 at 1:19 PM ^
End of the first. Nebraska has 8 rushes for 22 yards, 2.8 yards per rush. Not so good, so far. See if it improves.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:19 PM ^
Thank God Wisconsin isn't playing
August 27th, 2022 at 2:44 PM ^
Huskers better just play the damn ball game, worry about having a hooley later!
August 27th, 2022 at 1:21 PM ^
Scott Frost has bitch tits
August 27th, 2022 at 1:22 PM ^
Wait, isn't a facemask an automatic first down? Why did they just replay third down?
(EDIT - I guess it was actually a substitution penalty.)
August 27th, 2022 at 1:23 PM ^
Are we sure football is back yet? Not 100% sure this qualifies.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:28 PM ^
FIRE BORGES.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:51 PM ^
Let’s define this. Two teams from the B1G. The desired article I’d possession is a football. There are people watch - spectators - who appear to have been imbibing with alcohol prior to the game’s start. The officials are horrendous - or, at least, poor and inconsistent.
By definition - this is a B1G football game.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:27 PM ^
Nebraska with a 6 man front.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:28 PM ^
Well it’s a game again!
August 27th, 2022 at 1:29 PM ^
And just like that, it's N1410N
August 27th, 2022 at 1:29 PM ^
That’s more like it. Nobody within 50 feet of the receiver. Very RichRod like defense there, Nebraska.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:30 PM ^
NW suddenly makes chewing up Nebraska's defense look easy.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:30 PM ^
Alex Smith’s leg is pretty gnarly looking
August 27th, 2022 at 1:31 PM ^
The red guys are guarding the purple guys, correct? It wasn't clear from that last play.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:31 PM ^
Both QBs for NU and NW are currently averaging over 10 yards per attempt. AIR RAID!
August 27th, 2022 at 1:40 PM ^
AIR RAID!!
Fry like bacon, little freshman piggies!!
August 27th, 2022 at 2:09 PM ^
Scott Frosts mom in high school
August 27th, 2022 at 1:32 PM ^
Nice play selection by Northwestern Tight end to the seem, Run over left edge then with nice blocking then catch Nebraska in the wrong D on a deep crossing.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:35 PM ^
I don't like that penalty. The Nebraska guy had a foot OOB but was still running forward and the NW player may not have known the play was over.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:37 PM ^
Ball don't lie!
August 27th, 2022 at 1:36 PM ^
Knee jerk observations:
NW - not good
Casey Thompson - good
Nebraska can’t run the ball
Nebraska defense is not good
August 27th, 2022 at 1:36 PM ^
90 for Northwestern is a dude. Basically carrying the whole D line for them.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:39 PM ^
These announcers are turds
August 27th, 2022 at 1:45 PM ^
The B-Team. Waxing on about the beauty of Ireland from their studio in Storrs.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:40 PM ^
Not enough video in this case
August 27th, 2022 at 1:40 PM ^
I mean its NU/NW, but still nice to see football again...
the NU QB actually has looked pretty good? that said, I haven't watched football in a while...
August 27th, 2022 at 1:40 PM ^
#26 for NW is a shifty little fella
August 27th, 2022 at 1:40 PM ^
Where was that replay official last year in East Lansing when we needed him?
August 27th, 2022 at 1:41 PM ^
As much as I dislike Frost and Nebraska that was garbage, clearly down. Looks like another year of Big Ten replay officials being complete morons.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:44 PM ^
I think his left knee was probably down before it came out, but was it indisputable? Not sure. The angle wasn't great.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:44 PM ^
They are so inconsistent. The officials overturned the huge strip-sack fumble Michigan had against Michigan State last year when there was less evidence to overturn than in this case.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:57 PM ^
This one was closer to the spirit of the rule. The standard for an overturn is supposed to be really high, and if there is any possible doubt, the call should stand. It was hard to see exactly where the ball was when his knee touched down, so I think it was correctly ruled here.
The overturn in our game was horrid and it wouldn't shock me if the league used it as a teaching tool in the offseason.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:46 PM ^
Nah, there was no good view of both the knee and the ball. The only view where you could see his knee didn't have a good view of what was happening with the ball.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:42 PM ^
#26 is my new Heisman frontrunner
August 27th, 2022 at 1:45 PM ^
Nice punt, after to conservative of play calling they flipped the field
August 27th, 2022 at 1:45 PM ^
Northwestern's commitment to throwing the ball 7 yards short of the first down marker on 3rd and long is...admirable.
August 27th, 2022 at 1:45 PM ^
I feel like I'm watching two pretty even teams making each other look good because they are equals. But in reality they both suck and are going to get killed by good teams.
