Dana Holgorsen

Well,

let's flip it over to the offensive side of the ball and Dana Holgorsen in particular.

We've talked about Nebraska's struggles in the run game, especially in conference play, especially after Jamal Rule got hurt.

The thought is that the run very often opens up the pass game.

Dana Holgorsen was asked if the reverse could be true.

I just need consistency more than anything.

I mean, they've shown some really good football.

I mean, you play like you did against Oregon, you'll be just fine.

Let's go ahead and hear a little bit from Dana Holgorsen, his Tuesday presser, setting up our conversation for the Nebraska football offense.

Dana Holgorsen says Nebraska is leaving points behind and they need to score more.

Here's the OC.

That one more score was everywhere, you know, especially in the Indiana game.

I mean, there was things that was, uh, would have been really easy to find one more score.

And then you're back on track.

So this is a huge game all the way around.

Part of the Locked On Podcast Network, your team every day.

Today on the podcast, we hear from Dana Holgorsen and Rob Aurich.

How is Nebraska going to fix its offensive and defensive issues as it heads toward November? And a plan for the 10th Power Four game in 2027.

Could it be coming?

Sounds good.

Looking forward to that.

Let's get back to the topic at hand for this week and where Nebraska stands after their bi-week and after their two consecutive losses to Indiana and Oregon, it was coordinator day on, on Tuesday and Lincoln with Dana Holgorsen and Rob Borich.

bring in what they usually bring to the table.

And justice roadie.

our producer we played a lot of orich earlier in the show if you missed that just go back to our podcast page look up handling and handsome on spotify or apple and you can find that now we turn our attention to dana holgerson mentioned it earlier nick um just just discussing nebraska's running backs i want to see what it would look like with jamal rule healthy against some of these big 10 teams that's the injured guy i would like most to see at 100 right now for nebraska Here's what Dana Holgorsen had to say on the Huskers running backs and what the situation looks like there after the bye week.

Guys a little bit more healthy and grinding through the toughness of a Big Ten slate.

They got to play better.

There's just not going to be that escape hatch on anything that's going to be a viable excuse other than just get the work done with the ball.

Very best of your ability of whatever you have right now.

And I think that Dana Holgorsen understands that this can be a big part of what they do.

Having a mobile quarterback and having some of the receivers that Anthony Calandria has, how far that offense can truly go.

If you're going to bring in an offensive coordinator mid-year, like we've seen teams do.

Nebraska did it a couple years ago with Dana Altman, I believe.

That they brought him in as an analyst mid-year.

And then a couple weeks later, and maybe the writing was on the wall, right? He becomes the offensive coordinator because they can the other guy.

Uh, yeah, that's, that's how I would describe this offense of Houston.

They're not gonna air it out for 55 yard chunk plays like they did 10 years ago under Dana Holgorsen, uh, like West Virginia or Houston may have done.

But man, five touchdown passes from Connor Wegman.

This year, where last year preseason we said the Big 12 was the quarterback conference and had seven or eight names, this year we are now proving over the scope of the schedule that while we didn't enter the season as the quarterback conference, guys like Connor Wegman are proving that you, you have no doubt this league is built by the quarterbacks, and Wegman was great again.
