I think Broderick Thomas when i watch him.

 

Don't forget a couple drive killing possesions, because of penalties. We could have been up two scores but were forced to punt instead.

 

Compton won't get drafted too small too slow.

 

I think the pass interference penalty has evolved too much away from what the rule actually is.  The officials have become too respondent to just contact that they are failing to interpret whether or not the contact is actually impeding the receiver's ability to catch the ball.  Hence, the two PI's on us with the arm hooked could be seen as bs.  But I thought the one on Evans in the first quarter was legit. I thought he did enough to impede the receiver's chance at getting to the ball with contact.  I think the same of the PI in the endzone at the end on Dennard.  I thought his contact legitimately impeded Bell's ablility to catch the ball.

Yes i agree with you that if the defender is preventing the receiver from making a play on the ball it should pass interference. The way football has evolved into such a sophisticated passing game I hope that the competition committee takes a look at this in the off season, and makes it more like the pro game where the defender has a right to the ball too when it is in the air instead of the way it is now.

I would totally like to see them crack down on pick plays and let the corners and safetys play a little way to many teams are being bailed out on third and long because of iffy pass interference calls and then to many big plays are coming on designed offensive pass interference that is not being called

Didn't notice this so much yesterday but did during the replay. ON every penalty they did a double screen of the ref on one side and Bo on the other. I'm a Bo guy but this is a result of Bo acting like a child after every penalty. I don't watch enough other football to notice if they do this to other coaches, I'm guessing they don't. And they will keep doing it until Bo learns to show a little composure.

 

I noticed this during the LSU Alabama game. The screen would pan to Saban to see his reaction after plays a lot. I wonder why?

Its good to know they do it to other coaches I guess.

Its nonsense like this that makes good coaches look else where. the constant criticism for doing a pretty damn good job.

 

To me the pass interference call in college football have gotten ridiculous. Any time there is any hand battling or bumping at all the flag comes out. It's frustrating to watch. It's not just our games its all of college football.

Its topics like this that make me want to stop reading this board. We scored 28 points, missed a field goal and then threw an interception in the red zone. Good God we could have scored 38 points against a very very good defense. Now some of your want to fire Beck. There is just no making some of you happy. Sure he gets brain dead at times but for the most part i think he has done an excellent job this year. One week you want Bo gone, then you want Beck gone. So much negativity for a staff and a bunch of kids that don't give up and have found ways to win games late. Shame on you guys.

Wow what a classy guy. what a horrible thing to say makes us all look like fools

If your team is a big 10 school of course its a better show. It had better be its on the big 10 network after all.

Good God who cares just one more thing to bitch about

She won't be she is always on the early game....I don't think she is horrible other then sounding like a dude. she is better then her color man Joey Galloway he sucks worse IMO

I totally agree that a huge part of our problems is on the kids, rather then incompatant coaching. Sure there have been opportunities to second guess Bo, but its the kids on the field that are not performing to the level they are capable.

I would take a one point win to a loss any day who wouldn't.  The thing that concerns me the most isn't that we don't have talent or speed, because I don't think those two are accurate at all.  We have a lack of focus problem.  I don't know how the staff can get into the heads of the players to get them to realize this, but having the meltdown A Bell had is just another prime example that these KIDS need to buy in and do what they are asked to do.

I agree with not being satisfied with the way we win games sometimes, but I am happy that we won. I don't think that there is any doubt that we are capable of playing at a higher level. At this point I just want to be watching Husker football in December and to be honest through 80% of that game I was convinced that we wouldn't be. A win is a win, time to move on to next week, nobody will remember how crappy we played other then we played good enough to win.

Taylor threw the ball great when we needed it most but what I loved seeing was the qb counter. What good is a dual threat qb if there are never any designed runs. Our offense has really seemed to eliminate that part of his abilities, I realize we have several capable rbs but if there are designed qb runs its just one more thing for the defense to have to prepare for.

A win is a win.....just like Bo said good for tv bad for the heart.....hell yeah baby

we are not national title contenders who cares what the score is as long as its in our favor

Taylor won this game with some big time throws late....better bench him and burn Armstrong's red shirt

Why in Gods name would we want to schedule a team like LSU. The way college football is to me its foolish to schedule teams like this in the non con. Schedule 3 puds and one respectable team and get yourself prepared for conferance play.

No Carrol. No Tressel. I will settle for 9 wins every year and endure 2 of these losses each season to have the pride that we are "doing it right". The second we sacrafice that concept for the sake of a trophy with a crystal ball, we've lost EVERYTHING that makes this place special.

I agree 100%. This whole conversation makes me ashamed to call myself a Husker fan....We look like sh#t a couple games and so many want to jump ship and look for greener pastures .

I hate threads like this....they drive me crazy Bo is our guy.

Your an idiot. We don't need to be on probation in 5.

Who cares!!!!Just run what works. Martinez isn't an option quarterback.
