Mark Whipple was more encouraged than discouraged on Saturday, unlike Erik Chinander… Sep 01, 2022

-Whipple also said that the “fumble” by Isaiah Garcia-Castaneda shouldn’t have been ruled a fumble….what else did Whipple say?

-Also, Chinander said the performance by his unit wasn’t good enough….what else?

Michigan is going to start 2 different QBs in their first 2 games of the season…what could go wrong?! Aug 31, 2022

Show notes

-Jim Harbaugh says the race is too close to call between Cade McNamara and JJ McCarthy, so they both will start one of the first 2 games of the season before a decision is made for Game 3

-What if Nebraska had that strategy this season? Can you imagine the response? Harbaugh is safe with his job following a B1G title, so different there. But man…it’s odd.

Can Nebraska have an effective run game without QB run being involved? Aug 31, 2022

Show notes

-This goes back to what Frost said about the offense from Saturday’s game. QB run has been huge for Nebraska in previous years with Adrian Martinez, and although Casey Thompson is capable, it’s not part of the plan

-The offense still moved the ball fine on Saturday…what happens if the line falls apart though?

-Also, apparently physicality in practice is a focus this week…maybe tackling will improve

-Will we see a full stadium on Saturday or are you concerned for what the crowd looks like?

Scott Frost walks back on comments about the offense’s creativity at Tuesday’s press conference…what else was said? Aug 31, 2022

-Frost also said to not give up on this team, because it’s a “neat” group of players

-What else did we learn from Tuesday’s press conference session?
