Not reading this many pages, but Bo's tirade on the official was justified earlier.

Watched the replay, and Watkins (the RG?) grabbed Baker by the facemask and drove him into the ground. No way the official could have, or should have missed it as it was away from the play in the open field.

Bo had every right to lose his cool on that one and the official acting as if he didn't see it is straight BS. Unless the official wants to admit to being blind that is.

The window to possibly win will close fast if we don't get a three and out.

I agree and Spurrier knows this. He will settle for bleeding out the clock as much as he can.

This just shouldn't be happening...again. We should have beaten them by 20+. Seems like we can never readjust when the momentum shifts and it just gets worse...

and let's throw in some dropped passes just to make it complete.

Cue the Yakety Sax.

This really sucks, we started off so good!!!!

Did we back down when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?!!! Go Big Red!!!!

Were down 10 pts to a #9 all american SEC team with 8 mins left. Its gonna be tough to comeback

Big 3rd down here if we have any shot of coming back.

I noticed they had a "Nebraska miscues" graphic noting the penalties and turnovers. I would imagine the production crew keep this handy for all of Nebraska's games.

Whats missed up is that it is filled out correctly with 8+ penatlies and two turnovers. :confucius

I put most of this poor second half performance on two areas Tim Beck & Barney Cotton.

1) Tim Beck because you know your defense is starting to struggle stopping the deep ball, so help your defense out by running it more on first down and working that clock.

2) Barney Cotton because....opps another penalty by an offensive lineman.......oh there's another.

What about Garrison? He coaches the O-line too. Or is it easier to just blame it on Cotton?
