Calls better on the replay. You can't do that Evans. -

It's very quiet at the game. Good catch by Bell. -
Here's an interesting stat/quote from an article that Hailvarsity.com wrote on Wednesday: http://hailvarsity.c...fending-denard/ It's crazy how you can count on one hand how many times the defense has given up a first down when it's 3rd and long. Of course the don't have other stats like how the defense is doing on 1st and 2nd downs, but they have been winning the majority of 3rd downs. I'm also surprised that this wasn't brought up before now.

On the Mark TD, they ran the play early in the game and it was completely stuffed. Then on that play they changed how they blocked the play. Smith went with QB, Compton went with pitchman, and Santos was supposed to cover Mark. Santos gets blocked, and Stafford doesn't get far enough over to at least slow down if not make the tackle on Mark. There's an article in one of today's papers that has a break down of the play and what exactly the team did wrong.

Watching the game again on BTN, I retract the statement that it was a bad call on not calling grounding on Martinez. McDermott was right there. He probably couldn't make a play on the ball but he was in the area.

The bottom line is that a win is a win, and at this point and in this year with this team you have to accept the wins no matter how they come. It doesn't mean we accept mediocrity, it just means that a W is a hell of a lot better than a L. Everyone who watched the game knows that the team has a lot of things to work on. But we've now faced two deficits in the second half this year of more than 10 points and we've come back and won them. There's a lot of resiliency in this team, especially on offense.

Question About The Fumbled Punt We Recovered.
whateveritis1224 replied to epocSoN's topic in Husker Football
We did end up benefiting greatly from Martinez shovel passed out of the end zone and they though Cotton was close enough to be considered the intended receiver (he wasn't and it should have been a safety). -
Moved inside to DT on most of the plays, would like to see him stay there and have Martin and Ankrah as our starting DEs.

That a win is absolutely better than a loss no matter how you do it. But there are things we absolutely have to work on. Our defense definitely stepped up and shut down a decent offense.

Lucky that we were able to pull it out. Let's enjoy that we won the game before we go crazy on everything we did terrible (and there was a lot of things). At this point it's win and advance for me. Good points: D stepped it up and only had 1 really bad play. Martinez was T-Magic today. We have the absolute best WRs in the B1G. We have our first win on the road. Bad Points: Just about everything else.- 2,134 replies

How many times over the past couple years has the WR dropped that pass for the first down? Great offense by Nebraska the last two series to get up by 1.- 2,134 replies

Really? What does Martinez need to do? He's had 1 bad throw, but outside of that he's doing everything he can to win this game. The O-Line definitely hasn't been helping him out. Mistakes on Special Teams hasn't helped him at all. What else does he need to do? Beautiful throw by him for the TD to.- 2,134 replies

WTH does Martinez need to do? While he's not playing his best game, he's still playing pretty damn good. It's on the line, again. The defense has been playing well outside the 80 yard run.- 2,134 replies

That's on Stafford. Smith and Compton were following the option to the outside, they had their guys covered. Stafford or someone else didn't jump in the gap.- 2,134 replies

The most popular player on the team is the backup QB. You want to burn the Redshirt on a QB more than halfway through the season? Yeah lets go ahead and do that. Real smart move.- 2,134 replies

Don't know why they didn't call progress on the Mark play. SJB got beat, but that's the first play that's happened and he still almost tipped the ball. We have 1:30 left til half and then we get the ball first. Let's see something happen.- 2,134 replies

I have no clue what's going to happen with this team. They are def one of the most frustrating teams Nebraska has fielded that I've followed. They have exceptional talent on offense, but they keep shooting themselves in the foot with stupid penalties and turnovers.- 2,134 replies

WTH did Stafford do? Personal foul covers a wide range of actions, and when was the PF. If it was after the play, that ball is still ours.- 2,134 replies

ABC/ESPN has definitely shat the bed on their coverage of the beginning of the game. I get the post game stuff for OSU/PU, but then you follow it with 2+ minutes of commercials while the game is playing. Great job there by the decision makers.- 2,134 replies
