Re: Nebraska/Texas in game
I hate the fucking big12 refs.
We were getting held like a mutherfucker on Texas's td-drive.
We got a bullshit PI on their first fieldgoal drive.
Then they get time back on the clock on their last drive? Yes we screwed ourselves on the bad kick and the horsecollar(a rule I'm already sick of). But giving them time back on the clock? If that was us it's game over.

Which they already won, before tonight's game was even played. For Texas, tonight's cash grab was merely for the opportunity to get knocked OUT of the national title. It wasn't for the right to play their way in. They stood nothing to gain, and everything to lose. Nebraska stood nothing to lose, and everything to gain. That's a farce.Congrats Texas on a hard fought Big XII championship.
The game was a farce. It was a close game, but it never should have been played. If only the Nebraska kicker weren't a total fucking cunt, the Big XII would've just pissed away their chance at a national championship, by holding this farce tonight.They don't come cheap and anyone who says different can go fuck themselves.

Kickoff out of bounds or not, Texas probably gets into position for that FG.

They barely managed it, starting from the forty. If they'd started from the twenty, or even inside the twenty, it's a whole lot less likely.MgoBlue-LightSpecial wrote:Kickoff out of bounds or not, Texas probably gets into position for that FG.

Less likely? Sure, but it's not like they would've called the same set of plays. Would've been an entirely different scenario.
Also, it's not a given they would've started from the 20. See, the guy who catches it gets a chance to return the ball by running up field.

Re: Nebraska/Texas in game
I knew it was too good to be true when it was time to kick off. When the ball rolled to the sideline, my heart sank. I was hoping that finally we'd screw Texas over like they've done to us in many games since the Big 12 started.
I would have to think that Pelini is going to encourage Watson to either move on, or he's going to wrestle some control away from him. While Nu's defense has improved dramatically, the offense has regressed big time.

Just a hunch. Being a do or die situation, I think Colt would've gotten it done.

Also, it's not a given they would've started from the 20. See, the guy who catches it gets a chance to return the ball by running up field.
See, if you kick it off deep into the end zone, or out of the end zone, they start at the twenty. Maybe they even try to run it out of the end zone, and only get to the fourteen...or maybe they fumble.
If you kick it out of bounds, nothing good can happen, guaranteed. They only need to go thirty yards to win the game, which they did, by the skin of their teeth.
Make them start deep in their own territory, maybe Suh gets to Colt once. Maybe he sacks him, causing a fumble. Maybe he makes Colt rush a throw, leading to a pick.
See, the Texas O wasn't doing shit, all night. The more field they had to traverse, the more plays they had to run, the more likely they screw up.
When he kicked it out of bounds, we all knew Texas would win. Had he pinned Texas, it's up in the air, with Nebraska having the decided advantage.

The point is that the rule is stupid, and it should be changed to where it makes sense, and only stupid people would say anything other than, "You're right. It is stupid, and it should be changed. 6-2 teams should not be given the opportunity to wrest the championship away from 8-0 teams."

What a completer and utter abortion of a football game that shit was.
The Big-12 had 2 big games this year. OU vs Texas and Texas vs Nebraska. Those were truly 2 of the worst football games I think I have ever witnessed.

Suh might be the best player on defense we will see for another 50 years. It's too bad Suh didn't have an "F" (Florida) on his helmet this season. He would have got the love he so deserves. Oh well...he'll get his in the NFL hall of fame. Great players....the greatest of all time....play college ball somewhere. Mr. Suh just exhibited a prelude to what is to come.

Again, what the hell are you even arguing? Kicking the ball out of bounds was a crucial mistake, and it made what very likely would've been a difficult job much easier.
If you're going to C&P what I said, C&P the parts where I said he better not kick it out of bounds. C&P the part where I said he doomed them, by kicking it out of bounds.

Re: Nebraska/Texas in game
Why? What the hell did Watson do? His fucking players can't execute plays. It doesn't matter what they run. They can't block a good d-line, the WR's can't catch, the QB can't throw and they don't have big play backs. There isn't a coach in the country that could get Nebraska to even be a halfway decent offense this year. This is what I love about CFB fans. They have no idea what they're talking about. They see an offense (or defense) struggle and they wanna fire the coordinator even though anyone with half a brain could tell it has NOTHING to do with the coordinator.Our offense is inept and pathetic. Watson needs to go.
I had no problem with Nebraska's gameplan today. The couple of times they did throw it downfield it was an epic fail by Zac Lee. They couldn't hold blocks up front against the run. What the hell is a coordinator supposed to do in this situation? You can't run the ball, you can't throw downfield, and you can't run a ball control passing game because your QB is not accurate and your WR's drop balls. Tell me exactly what the hell you would have done differently?
There is absolutely no coach or no style of offense that would work with this personnel. Sorry, but it's true.
