Nebraska - Purdue Game Discussion Thread

[SKYDOG]

Why was that entire series Horvath????????

Who is calling these plays?

 

[mille736]

It was the second down play as the head-scratcher for me.....why not play-action? Just out of sorts all over the field.

I thought the same for 3rd down, since I’m sure he had already decided on going for it.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Blocked! Holy cow - haven't seen that in a while.

 

[mikeysharps1776]

Special teams is so back! Wow Nebraska sucks.

 

[KentuckyBoiler]

I don't understand this board's fascination with Horvath. He is not Alstott 2.0.

 

[TopSecretBoiler]

oh ya anthrop!

 

[PaBoiler78]

Why was that entire series Horvath????????

if we get a TD here, pivotable part of the game.

 

[Professor Emeritus]

Why was that entire series Horvath????????

It's part of the script, KB...Act 2, lines 41-45. Keep up, will you?

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

One more shot for the end zone.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Sooooo close. wow.

 

[TopSecretBoiler]

omg...so close

 

[KentuckyBoiler]

Why are we not going to Bell? It didn't count, but that last catch shows Brohm is not using his weapons correctly.

 

[mille736]

I don’t understand what happened to Brohm as a play caller. 2 years ago he would not have run 3 straight times for that first down, he would have been salivating at the thought he gets a free shot toward the end zone. Aggression is what got him where he is, even before Purdue.

 

[Boiler8285]

One more shot for the end zone.

Would have been a good time for a fake FG. We need TDs. it will take 40 points to win. I really think Brohm calls plays with no regard for the score or the opponents. Does he really believe his D is going to pitch a second half shutout?

 

[KentuckyBoiler]

Similar to last night's basketball game, we need to make major halftime adjustments. Breaking a few chairs in the process is ok.

 

[TopSecretBoiler]

we are just not good enough...all the way around.

Scott Frost is keeping Purdue in the game.

Scott Frost is keeping Purdue in the game.

Our team has given this lead to Frost

Horvath is far, far, FAR from a problem on this dysfunctional team.

1a Defense
1b Special Teams
2 Questionable play calling on critical downs.

 

[BoilerData]

Purdue's offense is super streaky. Nebraska should be attacking Purdue like Rutgers did and play keep away. Frost wants to run up the score and it opens them up for mistakes.

 

[KentuckyBoiler]

Our team made Minnesota look good. We made Rutgers look good. We are making Nebraska look good.

 

[KentuckyBoiler]

Barnes gets to play this half

 

[TopSecretBoiler]

zone getting lit up

 

[KentuckyBoiler]

All year long

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

zone getting lit up

Well, it is the Christmas season, Top.

 

[KentuckyBoiler]

Diaco should give his salary back

 

[Boilerbrewer]

Well...getting Barnes back has made all the difference in the world.

 

[KentuckyBoiler]

Martinez wasn't even touched

 

[KentuckyBoiler]

Way to go Mackey!!

 

[GoldandBlackintheSaddleAgain]

Nebraska walks into the endzone to start the 3rd.
Must have been quite the inspiring halftime speech and adjustments!

 

[SCBoiler1]

Martinez wasn't even touched

Well, we did have three down lineman with the ball on the one. But what do I know.

 

[TopSecretBoiler]

fn mackey

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Dumb reaction penalty from Mackey.....well, that was not what the Boilers needed.....just took five minutes off the clock and down 3TD's.

 

[KentuckyBoiler]

Well, it is the Christmas season, Top.

It has been Christmas in October and November too with our defense

 

[purdueplayer]

I just don’t get it. I think a few 6A teams could score against us just as easily.

 

[GoldandBlackintheSaddleAgain]

These results are not Plummer's fault (though he hasn't played great) but maybe give Alaimo or Burton a series or two just to see what they have in this blowout?

 

[Bobtheboiler88]

I am not a pessimist. I still have hope for the future of this team. But it sure seems like this team gets worse every week.

 

[purduedavie]

I don't understand this board's fascination with Horvath. He is not Alstott 2.0.

He's not, however, he's one of the few guys that plays hard, give me and entire team of that kids. I know this, not one person should be talking about him during this embarrassment.

 

[Dandelion1972]

Coach,


Will you guarantee that either you and/or Diaco will resign at season's end?

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Dang it Durham....can't drop that.
