If you are scoring more you are able to afford having less TOP. In a low scoring game especially reaching into 3rd or 4th quarter - TOP needs to be a valuable tactic once you are above your opponent in score. As far as sucking in the first half, it's a common problem and can be attributed to thousands of factors. I'm thinking of the Alabama and Kentucky game right now.

I think that's true. When you have one drive that eats up nearly 20% of the game I guess that happens

Wow. I didn't notice the lack of punting -- nor how long that one drive took. Seemed like it was dragging, but daaaaayum.
In the first half the Illini had some sustained drives. In the second half, they had that nice FG drive but otherwise, a bunch of miserably snuffed out punting drives. Way to go, Blackshirts! Good job, also, to keep those two Illini drives to FGs.

It has just dawned on me after the game that I didn't recall seeing Caleb lb at all, but thought no way we went whole game w/o a punt..

I am just glad that the Huskers did not get Munsoned (Rileyed) out there yesterday.

Long time lurker: I completely understand the right to protest. No issues here as long as freedom of speech goes both ways and that freedom of choice is just that freedom of choice, no matter what side of the fence you are on.
I just don't understand, and maybe someone can explain their thoughts but what is the endgame? Is it change of policy? Awareness? What I am saying is I think by doing this in uniform with the facts and reasons muddied for different angles, how can you ever stand up again? Wouldn't that seem hypocritical to fact that you have just taken on an ambassador role as to when oppression is happening and when it isn't.
That being said and on the lighter side, say someone "feels" as if oppression is happening for any number of reasons, will NU provide a forum/press conference for the most minuscule of feelings of being oppressed?
So hypothetically if "insert name" feels that his/her sandwich was dry and was not afforded the same sandwich as everyone else, and NU doesn't offer the same forum.. so NU doesn't care about this students "feelings" but only football players? I am being sarcastic but what I am saying is that it's a slippery slope. 2cents completed.
