Looked to me like two borderline offensive facemask calls that should have gone against Bell on that 70-yarder. Roby's roughing the passer call on that wasn't late at all, and neither was the other one called later on in the game. I don't think we were playing dirty by any means, the refs missed a few calls but for the most part were pretty fair, obviously Shazier's facemask was blatant but still. And if it helps, Nebraska is the only B1G team besides my Buckeyes that I cheer for. You guys tend to have an amazingly classy fanbase, and we're lucky to have you in our conference. Besides, I think last night makes up for last year's game.

Signed up to say this: While there's no way to know for sure why Urban didn't kneel it down, as an OSU student/fan, I think it has something to do with what your kickers did during halftime. Typically, our band does Script Ohio during pregame, but since it was the homecoming game, they had to wait until after their halftime show to do it this time. In the middle of Script Ohio, the Nebraska kickers came out and were practicing field goals where the band was walking. That is unequivocally our most hallowed tradition. To me, it seemed intentional, but I won't ever know for sure. Not saying Pelini had anything to do with it, either. And they eventually moved their stuff to get out of the way. But in the minds of OSU fans who were at the game, the last touchdown made up for what your kickers did. Also, every Nebraska fan I met this week was very cordial and respectful. I have the utmost respect for your fan base, and hopefully will be coming out there at some point for a game. But yeah, here's a video of the kickers intruding. Obviously it wasn't anything too egregious but regardless, a lot of people felt disrespected, especially after our band's amazing halftime show (it's on the front page of Reddit, for anyone interested).
