Football Rutgers Football suffers first loss of the season, as Nebraska wins 14-7

We can still win, but there seems to be universal disdain about getting away from a successful 1st quarter rushing attack, it wasnt broke but KC broke it
Actually he's made a number of good throws. Our LG is killing us right now.
We should be happy with 7-5. Every game is losable
Their NG is absolutely abusing on in the run game too. It's stopping us from getting to the LBs
Agreed. Kirk has done a horrible job calling this game. He is forcing AK to make ridiculous plays because because of our lack of protection.
Force Nebraska to stack the box with the run to open up the pass not the other way around.
A problem at LG. Need to get back to running the ball with KM. Wish AK would stop throwing toward Long. He is a middling WR with speed but lacks separation quickness and toughness. Better options out there. Game isn’t over if they can get the run game going. The freshman QB is talented (as you would expect for a top 10 national recruit) but will make mistakes.
Im not even sure the extent this is the case. Mo was our pass rusher. It makes a difference not having anyone who can get to the QB. Take that DE from VTech and put him on our team. The D would be completely different.
This is a game where Rutgers needs a quarterback that can complete passes down field.The running game was gaining yardage in the first quarter but when they got into Nebraska territory, Rutgers failed to make the critical first downs.Rutgers defensive line once again is being manhandled allowing far too much yardage right up the middle.The home field advantage along with the wind favored Nebraska because they have the more talented quarterback.
I haven’t seen enough of their QB but he’s not super impressive to me in this game. He has 100 years to make every throw.
One of his picks is running to his left with 300 lb #8 about to smash him. If we don't protect better in the 2nd this will be too tough a road.
We actually have a couple decent drives. It's just comically bad once we get inside the 40
So many mistakes and missed assignments. Yardage wise it's not that far apart at 206-145, so the negative plays are the key to being down 14-0. Need to do much better in the 2nd half - not over yet, but we must clean things up.
Or that they actually have to block people for said great running backs to be effective.
Well we’ve capitalized on other’s making mistakes in past weeks so we’ll see how we respond. It’s still reachable with the ball out of half as well.
Mind boggling that we have 3rd and 3 and pass twice instead of running twice.
RU led 13-0 at halftime at home in 2022... then blew it. Eager to see Nebraska blow it today!
Anything can change lol.
Have you seen what Vandy has done today against Alabama vs their past.
13 points total for all of Saban’s tenure, today they’re winning 23-14 at half so who knows lol.
Main point is a two score game is doable because one big play or sudden change or TO can make it a 1 score game.
The worst playcalling of the game was 1st and 10 at their 29, and we don't run the ball a single time. The play where we threw to Fletcher for 0 yards, we faked the handle to Kyle, which would've gone for 10 yards minimum.
Completely out coaching themselves.
The 4th down INT was actually a good thing, in terms of gaining some yards.
