What's amazing to me and I've seen this written in one of the post game articles (and I've touched on this immediately after the game as well) is our tendency this year to concede to a defense. In other words if they align their defense in a certain way we won't attempt certain plays we feel won't be successful. I mean I get it you dont want to just play into their defense but we have plays that we run well. No matter what a team does we have to find ways to run OUR system.

This year there's EXCUSES every week about things not going well... damned excuses and until we fix THAT we won't be doing dick to any good defense. You don't concede amounts of your play book, you don't ignore certain players, and you sure as shit don't use the excuse of "they schemed us".

That's not like UFM at all and I'm shocked that he's allowed (and this is a guess that he has) Beck/Warriner to use such a lame excuse.

That is why it won't be used. Have you not read where Beck doesn't like to run plays the are successful? Couple of Husker fans have posted this as well.

Common complaint in Lincoln was that Beck would find a play that works, then shelve it for the rest of the game.

Was Beck the sole play-caller against Sparty? Does Warriner call plays?

Beck calls the plays. Warriner contributes. Urban has veto and supreme power. None are strong at making adjustments in the passing game.

They were right to try and limit the pressure wreaked against their very iffy pass protection facing a great and aggressive front. They were cowardly to completely concede defeat on all fronts and just assume they couldn't protect long enough for anything beyond 12 yds.

The weather was dreadful until midway through the third. Then it was a calm, dry winter evening and they kept pretending that turnovers and sacks were the only realistic outcome of intermediate or downfield passing without field shrinking (and eye dropping) rollouts

The real challenge here is the one that faces Urban Meyer. He faces a challenge that every great manager faces when a middle-level manager is not meeting performance standards.

Coach Meyer needs to decide. Is Beck's behavior a part of his makeup, a stable trait of Beck's coaching personna? If so, then the answer is obvious. If not, can Beck be coached. If the answer to that question is yes, then Coach Meyer needs to work out whether he has the time and resources to get things right in time for next season. If no, then Coach Meyer must find the wisdom to admit that he made a hiring mistake and stop the pain now. If he shows blind loyalty to a person that he may like or respect but whom is clearly not achieving success, then he risks repeating the meltdown that preceded his departure at Florida.

A lot of truth in this. All offensive coaches own this not just Beck. Meanwhile, we aren't particularly good on pass pro, or really even run blocking in my mind. The OL just isn't a strength this year. And the QBs aren't on target a fair amount as well.

Beck can't be coached. Urban Meyer is Urban Meyer, not Moses at the parting of the Red Sea.
You guys need to part ways with this guy. Sorry if I'm out of line, but....

When Texas picked up Shawn Watson, I felt the biggest glee in my heart, knowing the downfall would be sweet, oh so sweet.
But when you guys picked up Beck, my heart sank to the deepest depths of the ocean.

I was hoping that Beck would have adjusted to Urbans offensive ways and the philosophy by now, but I guess not. Dantonio and his coaching staff must have had us pegged all the way from the start. .

All Dantonio did was put in his "Beat Nebraska" gameplan from last year. The only factor he couldn't account for was the lack of a ranting, raving lunatic on the sidelines for you guys.

Becks gone IMO. In Urbans press conference today he said he's going to be more involved in play calling. I'm thinking that doesn't bode well for the play caller. There's no basement to reassign him to, but urban can take his stapler.

I was baffled at the time Urban hired this guy. All you had to do was look at the reaction of Nebraska fans, who were likewise confused.

I assumed Warriner would be calling plays and Beck would just be in support. They apparently tried that early and it didn't work since Warriner was on the field and unwilling to go up to the booth. Meyer openly discussed how they were tweaking the system for calling plays early in the year and you have to assume more and more (if not all) responsibility was put on Beck, resulting in the debacle we saw against MSU.

The whole thing was a poorly planned year long train wreck.

Blah.

I had a dream that this is what happened in the first staff meeting when Urban walked in the room...



Nino Brown = Urbs
GMoney = Beck
Jamal = Warinner
