The Drive: December 15th, 4pm – Should Logan Smothers start on Friday against Rutgers?
December 15, 2020 by Leave a Comment
We can dream a little bit…should Nebraska give Logan Smothers a chance to play on Friday?
December 15, 2020 by Leave a Comment
-It’s a game you can’t afford to lose, sure… But if you do lose, it’s just another loss in a lost season. We know what you have in Adrian Martinez and Luke McCaffrey at QB… Why not let Smothers get a shot?
-Frost spoke highly of Smothers on Monday, and since this year doesn’t count at all for eligibility, is there a huge risk in playing him? What if he throws well? Interesting conversation for next year. Martinez and McCaffrey do not do much to excite the Fanbase in what is essentially your bowl game.

-Nebraska had a chance to end the season on a strong note, but lost a lowly Minnesota. Why is it so hard for this program?
-Nebraska’s offense continues to struggle… Can its issues be fixed in one off-season? Is a QB change imminent? Or at least coaching in some element?
-what happens if Nebraska loses to Rutgers on Friday?

Nebraska needs to beat Rutgers for a variety of reasons on Friday… But will they?
December 15, 2020 by Leave a Comment
-Rutgers’ basketball team is a top 25 team, and will (likely) beat Nebraska when they play them in late February, unless the huskers finish strong and Rutgers finishes poorly
-Rutgers is the same team we all make fun of in the Big Ten. If they beat you in both football and basketball in the same year… Is Nebraska then the new Rutgers? Dear God. What is happening?
-Frost/players audio from Monday…

-Why doesn’t it seem like Nebraska is as motivated to play as other teams in a year they begged to play?
-If you were Logan Smothers, what would you think about Frost saying McCaffrey is the QB of the future?
-Do we see a pissed off Nebraska team against Iowa on Friday or a defeated squad?

In the spirit of Thanksgiving, are people still thankful that Nebraska is playing football this year?
November 25, 2020 by Leave a Comment
-This is not supposed to be an eyeroll conversation. Remember when people called in and said they’d rather not play this year than have a bad record? Those people got ridiculed by listeners and even Sip and Jake
-Even in a bad year, though, you should prefer to see football than nothing at all, right? You learn nothing about your team in that scenario. Think of it that way.

If Luke McCaffrey is the ‘future’ of Nebraska football as Scott Frost said he was on Monday, what does that leave for Logan Smothers?
November 25, 2020 by Leave a Comment
-Nebraska has had some bad luck at QB. Joe Burrow opted for LSU instead of Nebraska because Frost and company had Martinez, and the rest is history. Noah Vedral transferred to Rutgers and is a capable passer, while Nebraska can’t get the offense going at all this year
-We don’t know much about Smothers’ ability in the college level because we can’t see practice. But he came in as a highly-regarded QB. What would he say about that quote? And what if he left and became great, and Luke stayed average? Man.
