GOAT

Sorry but I still don't have much faith in this staff. They did everything they could to throw the game away at the end: running Newby twice and then having to burn a timeout, and then after the ref threw a flag and saved us, we kick a damn squib kick with 17 seconds left and give the ball to MSU on their own 41 needing only a FG to win. Great heart and determination by the players, but still too many poor decisions by the coaches to win consistently. Just makes you wonder how many more games we would've won this year if we had a legit DC.

All I know is that I'd like to give those referees a hug.

I still have no clue why they chose to kick a squib kick at the end of the game instead of kicking it deep. Made absolutely zero sense.

There were many times in that game where the players could've thrown in the towel and given up. The coaches made some questionable calls, yet the players continued to fight and show true heart until the very end. My hat's off to them for that.

...and meanwhile, here in Baton Rouge, the annual "Fire Les Miles" posts and threads have begun

What I want to know is, what did Vegas oddsmakers know that we didn't know?

I saw many Husker fans heading to the exits after the Spartans went up 38-26. Not sure if I should feel bad for them or not

Whoever was responsible for the squib kick call at the end of the game does not deserve to be involved in the post game celebration.

How awesome would it be if we beat Rutgers and then spoil Iowa's perfect season??

Those refs deserve a raise. Without that flag being thrown we lose that game

Still bowl eligible folks! Let's beat Rutgers and Iowa!!!

Woohoo!!!!! GBR What a great win for these players after all they've been through.

Knock it down!!!!!

Holy crap, I cannot believe the coaches gave them a package gift wrapped at the 41

WHY a squib kick???? Why!!!!

Holy sh#t. 17 seconds is too long though

Having flashbacks of Missouri 98!!!

Thank you ref! He obviously felt bad for our players and threw a flag to stop the clock

Hmmm interesting

Actually, no. It's lack of depth in talent. Incompetent recruiting over last few years. Funny how on NSD over the past several years anytime I had concerns all the recruiting folks told me I didn't know what I was talking about and that we'd be "fine"

And that's game, folks. That blown time-out killed any chance of us getting the ball back.

Welp, at least our cheerleaders look good

We could have Jerome Bettis or Natrone Means or Christian Okoye and this clown would still hand it to Newby
