How are you defending this performance?Are you watching the same game as the rest of us?Seems like Marlowe's fumble was the last straw for a lot of people today, which is funny, since they went 3 and out and missed the field goal (no harm done). Kind of a microcosm of how our fanbase reacts to individual things.
Yes. Why?
This is a vanilla answer and doesn't address anything. The coaches need to accept some blame here. It should read more like:And to be clear, there is nothing wrong with that. Some people don't like coach speak, but that is exactly what a coach should do, say what needs to be said. With Bo, what we have to worry about is him flying off the handle at someone. Although probably not after a loss.Here let me sum it up for you.Pelini's press conference should be interesting, as should the coming week.
Bo: "We didn't execute. Michigan is a good football team. They're well-coached. They did some good things and they executed well."
And there it is the voice of reason. Everybody was looking ahead to something we hadn't even earned yet. Complete loss of focus on the task at hand. Beat Mich.We lost this game once it became apparent that we had a shot at a BCS game. We should have seen this coming, when "opportunity knocks", the Huskers hide in the closet and bump dickheads.AgreedBlame the special teams, they lost the game.
