Easy to blame the defense, but the defense was like 1% responsible for that loss (Matt O'Hanlon being that sole 1%)

Our offense scored 5 field goals. We punted on 4th AND GOAL. I think you're being really nitty while missing the point of my post - we dominated that game but I put the loss on the offense for being completely unable to score in the red zone all afternoon.

that was my point earlier. the defense was not to blame, but they still could have won it for us. basically, the offense got the blame for the lose, the defense would have got credit for the win. i am going to say this again, a phase of the game can win the team a game even if the other phase or phase are performing horrendously.

 
He might be right on that point. I can't remember now if we had two deep safeties or not. If we did, then it's on Matt for letting the guy get behind him. If we called something different and Matt was assigned to a shorter zone or something else, then it's on that outside corner for getting burned.

Good God you're dumb. Selectively scapegoat much?

1. It was Matt O' Hanlon who chased down the Va Tech WR after the CB (Blue) mistakenly let the WR go because the CB thought he was playing zone.

2. Our defense had no less than 5 chances to win the game against the Hokies after Blue's huge coverage gaffe.

To blame O'Hanlon for the loss to Va Tech in Blacksburg demonstrates a disturbingly stupid lack of football knowledge and comprehension of what actually occurred in the game.

Go back and rewatch the last three minutes. Nebraska lost that game but it was NOT because of Matt O' Hanlon.

Who is the last player to get juked and miss the QB in the backfield? Suh. If he goes straight he makes the tackle and game over.

Crazy huh.

Yeah, stupid Matt O'Hanlon couldn't cover 2 guys 20 yards apart because the corner blew coverage....

yeah, 1% is a very small percentage of blame. i hear ya. plus, iirc, o'hanlon was the blown coverage when he fell down and let the guy get behind him. it was an honest mistake, but costly.

 
I don't know how you can put O'Hanlon completely off the hook for that. You guys are weird, apparently mentioning him gets some people pissed off beyond all belief. I wasn't trying to start a riot, just saying that he blew coverage. And he wasn't the only one that blew it on that play; there was likely miscommunication, etc. The real moral of that game is that being that terrible on offense will catch up to you.

Because Anthony West was supposed to cover the deep half/sideline, and O'Hanlon was responsible for the deep middle. West stayed shallow and O'Hanlon had to cover 2 guys, both running go routes, 20 yards apart.
