Worst Announcing Job of All-Time

[NUance]

Who was worse, the announcers or the refs? THAT is the question.

Eh, I didn't have an issue with the refs. Could have called a couple holding penalties on the last two plays but B1G refs don't call much holding so they're consistant. Other than that I thought they called things right.

There were a couple calls I thought they blew. But that probably happens in every game. The funniest moment was when they came back from the Newby's near fumble review--with every fan of Nebraska and Indianan on the edge of their seats--and the ref started to say the wrong thing. He looked like one of those Southwest Airline commercials.

Man, glad the blocked field goal didn't come back to bite us in the a$$

Cunningham is the most poorly prepared guy in the business. He makes so many mistakes and he just talks out of his a$$. I swear every game I watch where he is doing color you are guaranteed for at least one coming out of commercial apology for some idiotic thing he said. Its like the let him know during the break how f'ing stupid he is and he has to apologize. Today was the extra point or going for 2.

Worst non-call by refs was long Hoosier return enabled to two blocks in the back.

Did anyone pick up on the parting shot, not sure which announcer said it... something to the effect of, "Couple games ahead with Wisconsin and Ohio State, but otherwise remainder of season is very winnable for the Huskers."

They just about misidentified the tackler or ball carrier on every play. Which doesn't ruin it for me but when they go on and on about something that is clearly not quite right it's like alright guys... c'mon now.

Refs = doo doo. What happened on the play where Maurice was called for holding? That was a run play right?

Re: the parting shot. All game long I kept thinking of all the "pros" that picked Indiana to win.....just makes it that much sweeter when we do win. As for Wisconsin and Ohio State...of course they are favorites and anything can happen. Those are no lose games for us I feel...if we get out scored, well...they were supposed to win...if we win it is a huge upset.

Wisconsin is very winnable, Ohio state...probably not but never say never. As far as Ed goes, at least he's consistent?

You could tell Riley wasn't impressed with the officiating in the post game presser. On Newby's near-fumble, "we finally got a call, we didn't get many of them tonight, but we finally got one."

The baltimore colts comment still baffles me

 

[admo]

Announcers were silly awful at times

That's so true that its really true

 

[stargazer]

Dzuris' two offside penalties were untimely.

I nominate ed cunningham

 

[Big red surfers]

I agree it was bad. Buuuuut Ed was sorta right on the 2pt call.

I didn't think the refs were all that bad. The announcers on the other hand called the game completely unprepared.

I think you watched a different game than we did..

Let me guess, nebraska got screwed on all the calls? Well, there were 3 times that they could have called us for PI, two were on third down that would have resulted in first downs for Indiana. How about when the refs weren't prepared for the no huddle and had to whistle for a stoppage? There were questionable calls on both sides.
