  1. It’s funny because I was thinking the opposite, that we are getting too cute too often, and that I can’t imagine it would be worse if we just straight up matched 5 on 5 with dbacks in man and rushed everyone else lmao
  2. What was the crew that did our Illinois game? Because that was the strangest and often poorest called game I’ve seen in a while. This one was pretty similar. Both of those games had refs missing false starts! Something you just very rarely see usually. Idk if the Big 10 needs to pay more and get better guys or have better training/accountability systems or what
  3. I’m pretty sure Frazier ran a 4.5 40. When healthy, he was fast. Maybe not Iback fast as iirc Ahman Green ran a 4.3 while here for example- but Compared to other QB’s Frazier would be up there with the fastest as I remember it.
  4. This was a really smart move by the Illinois player. It also is dumb that it rules that way. It’s one of those things where the rules don’t align with common sense. My question is, can a KR just play hot potato with the ball until he is out of bounds and then possess the ball and get the ball at the 35?
  5. The big 10 was kind of down when we joined though, and we had just come off two seasons of nearly winning the big 12. All the publications were picking us to win the conference, and we had no reason to think we would be worse in 2011 than 2010. Ultimately that staff just couldn’t stop basic power running- it was the main reason we didn’t get a conference title in the Pelini years. Not that it was the only problem but looking back if we could have just done that one basic thing we don’t have the Wisconsin results and have a title or two. I agree about OSU though- the only real down year I can remember is when the tresses thing happened. It’s the type of place that would have to get serious sanctions and hire someone colossally inept to really bad. But I would be surprised if things don’t drop off a bit without Meyer, maybe just meaning not beating Michigan every year
  6. man seeing our defense in those highlights looking worse than Eastern Washington is something else.
  7. Lol they aren’t making any more money on it though they are just trying to give season ticket holders a pat on the back for some reason, at the expense of people with young kids that would be going. I’d be fine with increasing the price a bit more than them handling the sales this way. Idk it’s not that big of a deal to me- but it just seems like this does nothing but potentially make a few bucks for season ticket holders
  8. It’s a pretty close one though really. The call on the field was fumble. If I were a ref I’m not sure I would reverse that call. Still 7 min left in that game too
  9. We got boned pretty hard in that game not even counting the time being put back on. The main one being that Texas never scored a touchdown in that game.
  10. It was still a s#!t way of doing the spring game tickets and it still is the way they are doing it this year. It’s just plain dumb in every way. Just open the whole thing up on one date it had been fine that way for years.
  11. For me it was really tough between 2 and 3 but really just the turnover difference. It’s still tough just from the stats bc you don’t see ypg and ypa, and is it fumbles or fumbles lost?
  12. Yes but we even if not we were a 8-4 every year team before that season
  13. I am not agreeing with him but I also think the notion of “job on the line” is ridiculous. That’s the real problem Refs don’t seem to be held accountable for much. Think of the worst officiating errors you have ever seen and what were the consequences? First off, there shouldn’t be conference officials. Secondly, it should be something that is highly scrutinized by a third party.
  14. That’s fine for the plays where it’s not our guy getting outright tackled or held from behind when he’s beat. Watching the Wisconsin Michigan game last night was interesting. Refs weren’t calling much of anything in terms of holding and. PI on either team, and I saw lots of hits that I was expecting late hit/targetting calls and nothing.
