Im really worried we think this O-line is good just bc they have a lot of starts together. Well so did Childers and Tears...didnt make them good.
Im standing by the opinion that this O-line is not physical.
Are they missing Potter? I thought that I heard he was out and if so that is part of the problem. I might be wrong.

It would explain some of this. So I kinda hope so...as long as he is OK

I’ve think I’ve seen some creases and he doesn’t follow his blockers.

His passes have been sharp though. It's almost the exact opposite of last week. Lombardi isn't the problem, the rest of the O is.

This has been a terrible half of football. It will be interesting to see if they can fire the guys up for the second half.

If somehow we can pull off this game our offense has a lot to work on. Nebraska’s Defense will feast.

He has been more accurate but I don't like seeing him flex and stare at his thumb on his throwing hand.

I don't either but honestly im way more concerned about Brown/run game performance. Wasn't good last week but we said BC were "monsters" or some BS. We can't run on an FCS school. Thats scary.
