I captured the game and uploaded a clip of this a-hole. Time to bombard the media.

Hey, could you do me and maybe the rest of a solid and find that helmet to helmet hit on Cody Green sometime in the first quarter? It was the play before Martinez came in for one snap I'm pretty sure. I mean it was OBVIOUS, BEYOND OBVIOUS and no flag. Some people think I'm crazy, but I saw it clear as day. Thanks in advance if you can!

Lee's been wearing that sleeve on his arm/elbow all season BTW.

Watson only knows one formation and that's the zone read. Right now we are relying on Martinez to do too much when we got two amazing running backs that can make plays too. Somebody should tell Watson that we have some fullbacks and tight ends that can line up in front of the running backs and run the ball north and south down their throats. We run the zone read way too much IMO

Pretty sure Bo knows that.

It didn't seem to be an issue of ANY KIND in our first 3 games. Could this be an issue of "not getting up" for this game? (please no jokes) It doesn't matter what halftime speech Bo gave...these guys played completely unmotivated. AT LEAST.

He gets blocked out alot?

 

SDSU ran 65 plays, David had 19 tackles, a QB Hurry and 2 pass breakups. Being involved statistically in 1/3 of the plays is just crazy.

Most definitely, the kid has got game without a doubt. He does need work, but the kid has game.

But let's remember...and know...it only takes 1 play to win a game.

But David is a gamer, I just want to see him improve and SHED BLOCKS, and not get burned. I saw that a few times too.

SDSU's coach and players. They outplayed us on both sides of the ball. Sure we did obviously get the win, but they were ready to play. We weren't.

But, David did have a helluva game without a doubt.

Rose easily. I can't stand the guy. Maybe I'm in the minority here, but I CANNOT stand Jim Rose. There's a reason he was booted.

Jim Rose doesn't belong in any sort of broadcast. FOR A REASON.

Ericinho, that's sweet! So you know Ben Coleman, correct?

Indeed! Roomed with him first semester of '02. Still talk to the guy

2001-part of 03 snare line here.

Haha, that's terrific! That sounds horribly mean. But more so, the quote

NU Defensive Line > That play

Do not play Rex until he's 110%. Repeat or aggravated injuries drive me INSANE. Should NEVER happen if healed properly and were taken care of properly. Let the kid practice no doubt, get his marbles back, his confidence, everything. But DO NOT throw him in right as he's "cleared" to play. I'd say wait 'til the Bowl game. Sure our other RBs are doing that great of a job at all, but Helu's healthy (for now) and we SEEM to have a better game plan offensively (at least in the KU game) at this point for now. I'd rather let a TRUE FRESHMAN that will be a star heal COMPLETELY before putting him on the field in live action like that. He's got PLENTY of time.

Much better than jumping around like a bunch of 10 year olds on Red Bull. It's what we did back in the good ol' days. Gives a more distinguished feel and look to it. I like it. But whatev.

 

 

Yeah, seamed to work didn't it?

If it takes a certain type of tunnel walk entrance for us to play well, then we should never field a football team again.

No of course it didn't "work" or whatever.

Yeah, based on its use by other teams around the nation, I must be the only one who doesn't like it.

We actually did this back in the 80s and 90s (for sure) so I wouldn't say we're copying anyone.

Excellent news. I really feel bad for Ricky though. Kid always tried his hardest, always. Lots of fire and passion in the guy. Hopefully he can get back on the field soon.

Keep the names. If we need to have no names to promote "team unity" then I think we'd have bigger issues than whether names were on or not.

And (not that it matters)...it is aesthetically pleasing.

Actually you'll see us in Lincoln in 2010. But who's counting

I'm quite impressed with Kansas's mistake smart football right now. But the last thing I want to see, is them flop at the end of the season just completely ruining everything they did before...you know, like Missouri seems to do.

Haha...that's a pretty good look a like there. Well done.

He just got cut again to make room on the line.

Jesus this guy can't get a break!

No kidding, I would really like to see him get a shot somewhere else that has room for him. Seeing him 5th or 4th on the RB depth chart and 3rd on the return chart...just bothers me. Give this kid a more fair chance I say.

Any opportunity to salvage whatever is left of this season is always a plus side to a situation. If we fire Callahan and Coz and have an interim HC, OC, and DC and they fail...well, at least we tried. Right now, I understand Dr. Tom stated that no changes will be made until after the season is over, and it's highly unlikely that he'll go back on his word...but I believe that at least giving this team a somewhat reused fresh start with these 4 remaining games really couldn't hurt anything.

We could have easily become the laughing stock, but on the same token it's too easy to do so. Everyone is taking their shots at us because we clobbered them and embarrassed them in the 90s, and heck...probably before then too. It's too easy now for anyone and everyone to use us as the butt of a joke, or as the joke, heck...for just about anything. We'll have to get used to it for the rest of the year. Our team isn't doing anything about it otherwise, we all have to take our fair share of blows just like everyone else did. But it's never fun.

Just like HuskerT said, amidst all the negativity and uncertainty regarding the recruits for next season, this is a breath of fresh air.

I was here before, but I've been gone for a while, so I'm sort of rechecking in if you will.
