    Nebraska finished 6-6 (7-6 with bowl) Do you consider the 2024 season a success or failure?

    • @logbro9115
      @logbro9115 День назад +9

      I don’t consider it a failure maybe a little disappointing because blowout against Indiana,didn’t finish in the top 25, lost in the same fashion against Iowa but it was a success because one we made it to a bowl game two beating Wisconsin for like the first time and three we won the bowl game it wasn’t pretty but we won.And also we competed with Ohio State yes it was a loss but I rather lose close to Ohio State then get blown out.

      Slow-paced progress, but progress on a mid-tier team is heading in the right direction and should lead to us becoming a great team. The little bit of success we did have could result in better recruiting. I don't think 2025 is the year for Nebraska still, but I DO think it's the year we can make Nebraska a great home for a larger quantity of great players.

    wasnt a smooth season, fired the ST coach, demoted OC mid season, yet we still went to and won a bowl game. and now we have a top 10 portal class. lotta people were afraid that rhule would be too loyalist to his guys, but to me its clear that he expects to win, and when things aren't working, he makes changes.

    Nobody could have predicted that Indiana was going to do what they did. I was kinda iffy on Illinois, UCLA and USC should have been wins. I got salty losing to Iowa again. But, the toughness of the offense at the end of the pinstripe bowl gave me hope for next year. 2024 was a success in growth in learning. That's part of the process.

  • @mikedurham3563
    @mikedurham3563 23 часа назад +1

    I think the biggest improvement will be seeing the inherited players graduate out. There are some good apples, but there are plenty that get that "here we go again" mentality in their play. If you play like a champion, good things will come.
    Rhule is doing what needs to be done. He's said it in multiple press conferences that he wins because of the people around him, not because of him. That alone should breed confidence.

  • @tommyfraz.
    @tommyfraz. День назад +1

    I completely agree. I think I’d have to grade Nebraska as a C+ this past season. They reached a win total they haven’t been able to in 8 years, they Beat Colorado and Wisconsin, and won a bowl game. It’s a good enough grade for this year, but they need to make a jump next year.

    My favorite part about this season was going to the Pinstripe Bowl! I moved this past summer to the East Coast, so this was my first season where I couldn't go to any games in Lincoln (and I went to A LOT of them back then). So, being able to once again see the Huskers play in-person was really nice, and I'm PROUD to say I got to see them WIN their long-awaited Bowl Game, GBR!

  • @moriartysdemise
    @moriartysdemise 22 часа назад

    A success in terms of overall program improvement. A nice step forward but there is certainly room for improvement. The very best thing about this season is Rhule demonstrated that he is willing to tweak what he's doing and do what is necessary to improve. That's what Osborne did over and over until he built an unstoppable Juggernaut and not all coaches we've had have been willing to take the necessary steps in a timely manner. This bodes well for the future as Rhule has demonstrated he will work until he finds the right mix.

  • @jdchatelain222
    @jdchatelain222 21 час назад

    Hell yeah it was!! Mainly because we snapped the bowl drought. Won the bowl!! We found out the OC and STC were not going to work to move forward. We lost most of the people who had that worm in their brain thanks to the prior staff. And we see the team getting faster this off season. we hoped for more than 6 or 7 wins. Buuut that was by in large the ubiquitous predictions. Right on schedule!!

  • @lawrence31415
    @lawrence31415 День назад +1

    Here are my thoughts: this team had the potential to win at least 2 more games, BUT this season was still a SUCCESS in my book. I do believe that Rhule is on track to exceed what Pelini accomplished in his tenure, but the next key benchmark that needs to be met in the next season (or two) is winning more games in the BIG 10. Nebraska cannot keep going 3-6 in the conference, so we need to aim for 5-4 or better. Ideally, we should be winning at least 9 games per season by Year 4 or 5 at the latest. Next year, the floor has to be 7 wins, GBR!

  • @montybarbee8128

    Minimum for this season, since they didn't lose the bowl. The main thing that went wrong for Rhule was that he hired his friends (which you should never do, unless they are the best available candidate for the job)...and then after doing that, didn't fire and replace them much earlier.

    Ugh. It's tough to grade this season anything better than a C. The highs were high. The lows were lows and we didn't remain consistent throughout the year. 7 is passing, but if it was less than 7, we are failing. 8 was close. But, would I be much happier with an 8 win season? On paper yes. On effort. Maybe not as much.
    I agree with the favorite mo.ents of the season. Destroying CU was great. And I was at the Wisconsin game and it was just a bunch of fun. I could watch that game over and over again.

We could’ve won all the other games with competent special teams, an improved defense and a better receiving core. I think we’ll have all that + Holgo next year! 10 wins or bust in ‘25!

    There are no traditional rebuilds on college football anymore. You better be able to utilize the portal to the fullest. The team you have this year can look completely different next year due to the revolving door of players coming in and out. In my opinion Nebraska needs a lights our WR and a quicker, more athletic Defensive Line.

  • @Husker3435
    @Husker3435 15 часов назад

    G’job Connor, since I had the Huskers finishing .500, the season was a push. Raiola was serviceable this year with plenty of freshman mistakes, which is to be expected. Heisman contender no, hopefully a maturity growth spurt for him over the offseason, now that he has a season under his belt. I’ll tell ya though, the next time Huskers have a chance to bury Indiana and Cignetti, they better not quit until they hang half a hundred on em, especially with Cignetti running his mouth. Keep up the good work young man…GBR🌽🏈🌽

  • @StevenDavis-dh8rs
    @StevenDavis-dh8rs День назад

    Hey Connor, so my thoughts on this season are what an amazing season! We made it to a bowl game and we won that ball game with a freshman quarterback.
    You have to be excited about this team and what we did this year and that has such a positive outlook on what is to come what we can expect in the future.
    I disagree with you about the Indiana game. Indiana was slapping everybody around. They made it to the college football playoff and then they fell short there but it’s not like they got overwhelmingly beat there either.
    If we had a better kicker and better special teams, yeah we could’ve pulled out a couple more wins but at the end of the day, we went to a bowl game and we won that bowl game.
    Lastly, we have our quarterback locked in. You know we had a true freshman quarterback. He did a great job and the expectation is he will get better. If you just look at that alone, then the excitement around this team is legit.
    It’s been a great year. I’ve enjoyed your podcasts. I look forward to your podcast every time they come out and I’m glad I came across you. I think you do a great job of analyzing and everything else and I like that you reach out to your listeners and give us a chance to give feedback as well. It’s really great man appreciate everything you do.

    Failure. You can tell he thought so too. He aged eights years last year. What sold me he knew he was under performant was, in a presser towards the end of the season, he responded proactively that this season typifies 2nd seasons for him; roughly 6-7 wins.
    He was feeling the pressure and reading the media heat. His response was to hedge the heat. Too many clutch moments where the D couldn’t get off the field, the O couldn’t convert. Too many games we fell flat and too many coaches made it to the end of the season.

    It wasn’t necessarily a success, but it wasn’t really a failure either. Not making a bowl game this year would’ve been considered a failure if you look at Matt rhule and his team’s historically. The reason I wouldn’t necessarily consider it a success is because I would say it is at least a step in the right direction. Going to a ball game and winning that ball game means a lot for recruiting and confidence in the players moving forward. This also gives the coaches a lot of confidence in what they can do in the future. If they would’ve fell short of a ball game, they would be thinking about 1 million different things that they could change all the time, but instead, now that they won a ball game, they can consider themselves having a strong base to build on. They have a lot more to sell now in recruiting than they would have before. So, not a success, but not a failure either. A step in the right direction for sure. When is the last time we even finished with a winning record?

  • @young5395
    @young5395 12 часов назад

    This year was about a C on the grade scale. Too many mistakes were realized and we tried to rectify them after this year and it nuked our record. Satterfield failed, Tony White's secondary got exposed, and our players got out played regularly for some of our losses. Were they worse than the teams they faced? I would say no for the most part. Dylan R. is a daimond in the rough but we need the receiver core to make this QB look like what some of his early highlight reals. Again we saw this year Nebraska purposely losing games they know they could win because we couldn't follow through. Matt Rhule at the end of the year said, "you know what f it." He wanted to take the long turn around coaching approach but modern fans are ipad kids and people who don't have the patience to appreciate the process. Oh ... And the NIL has cooked college sports when they opened the flood gates with no plan. All in all the season did suffice. We baptized Wisconsin in hell fire, made a bowl game, and won it. Nebraska should have had at least a 10 win season (including the bowl game). We have all the card they just need to be organized and placed. Next year will tell us if Nebraska truly has returned as the giant killers of old.

  • @Corey-dy2cq

    I'm blue in the face. If you can't get to the other teams' qbs and protect your own it makes for a long season. Indiana just picked us apart because they game planned well on TW. He shredded us. Did we even get a sack that game? I don't know how we hung in on OSU. They were obviously uninterested. Dylan looked comfortable until the Illinois game...then the choke started.

  • @internationalmatt1
    @internationalmatt1 День назад

    A very mild success leaving a lot on the table. Special teams cost a few games. Satterfield was an abismal OC. Raiola I cut a lot of slack because until the change was made to Holgerson, it seemed like it was all on Raiola's shoulders- no running game, WRs that could not beat man coverage etc. Yes he missed some throws but he was a true freshmen starting in what we now know is the best football conference this year the B1G. The biggest disappointment for me was the defense against Indiana. But first bowl game in years, and won it at that, beat Wisconsin and Colorado. The future looks brighter
