I am mentally willing the 4th quarter of that cruddy bowl we played against UCLA where we ran it down there throat all quarter. 

NEBRASKA STYLE!

 

[The Scarlet Pimpernel]

well, suffice to say we won't be kicking any FGs -- any red zone trips will be 4-down territory

 

[krc1995]

I literally can’t breathe and have no signal. Thank goodness for radio.

Better that way- No Millian to listen to.  

 

[BIGREDIOWAN]

Maybe this is the moment, maybe we got punched in the mouth and for once we're going to get up, wipe our face off, smile and hit them back! Something has to be the turning point for this program! 

 

[It'sNotAFakeID]

I understand they have the rule in there to make sure they don't miss bang bang fumbles, but GD that was a terrible interpretation. Again, give it to us at the point of the fumble, but there was no clear fumble recovery before the refs called the play dead. Which is what you were saying, just venting.

You're taught to play to the whistle. Well...we did. And it f#&%ed us...

 

[PaulCrewe]

I’d actually run the same play that Stoll scorers on in the first.  If the pass ain’t there again tell Adrian to run for the corner

 

[billdozer15]

That was helmet to helmet

The refs have been questionable at best.

 

[southernoregonhusker]

Completely inept.

The B1G will announce Monday that they blew the call and all will be good .  Right?!?!

 

[Apsu]

Nice run by Wad'Dale.

 

[The Scarlet Pimpernel]

Martinez looked...fast

the effects of the sedatives he popped before the game must be wearing off (I kid, I kid.)

 

[308_Husker]

I think it's a 2 prong problem on offense.

First and foremost: f#&%ING BLOCK YOU f#&%ING f#&%S ON THE OFFENSIVE LINE

2nd: Don't be afraid to get 3-4 yards/run if you're martinez

 

[hskerprid]

I haven't drank for 13 years. But I'll be damned if this team might make me start again.

 

[Waldo]

Let’s gain 700 yards and lose 

 

[southernoregonhusker]

How is it possible that every stinkin' snap is high.

 

[LumberJackSker]

Just put Martinez under center and sneak it in
