And THAT is why Chip Kelly is a great offensive coach. Great call on the shovel pass.

Of course he's playing to win. He's not playing to lose but it was a lousy decision. It was the 3rd quarter and he was down by 8. If it were the 4th quarter with 2 minutes to go that's a different story. The zone read on 4th down near the goal line, the attempted 'reverse' on the kickoff early in the game which almost turned out to be a disaster. For a game of that magnitude one big gamble is probably too much when your team's only down by a few points.

I don't like the zone read or the reverse, either. But the fake punt worked great, as did the early 2 point conversion (which is the only reason they were able to tie the game up). You can blame the loss on Chip Kelly's gambles, but without them, it wouldn't have even been that close. You can't point at any number of reasons Oregon lost this game - interceptions, the safety, crappy pass defense, dumb luck for Auburn... but not much of it do I think you can really pin on Chip K...

Any article that includes the phrase, "Tom Osborne was the balls," is worth a read. http://www.sbnation.com/college-football/2013/6/17/4425452/nebraska-football-dynasty-sec-record

Anybody else listen to the Husker Prayer talk on Benning/Sharp Friday morning?

Apparently Chip Brown tweeted that Bubba signed with KC, and then took the tweet down, lol.

At least Martinez's ball security is better than Mike Vick's... sheesh.

Aww come on. NEBRASKA wasn't playing for the natty in 1992... can't you let us off the hook for that shutout, espn?

Baylor just went up 30-19 on Texas in the 4th quarter. I'm torn between anger that we lost to them and glee that UT is suffering.

Cody Green has never lost a game as a starter. I don't care what kind of flawed logic went into that statement, START CODY next week!!!
-
Completely overshadowed by Kenny Bell's block was the fact that Jamal Turner split 3 defenders to get into the endzone. I love our skill position players.

Congrats to Wisconsin, 2012 Leaders Division champs!

Devin Gardner threw 2 interceptions in the first half? Hmm...

Did Raging Pelini kidnap all the mods or something?

Discovered "Firefly" about a year ago. Since, then, I've gotten hooked on "Buffy," "Angel," and "Dollhouse." They should let Joss Whedon write all the television.

Esperanza Spalding beats Justin Bieber for Best New Artist? There may be hope for America yet...

Feeling much better about the Michigan State game next week. Talk about overrated...
-
Geesh... For everyone who thought Nebraska was bad running the option, watch LSU... yikes.

Getting completely outcoached. Nothing surprising about what Nebraska has done so far, and Wisconsin has shocked Nebraska in about 10 different ways. Why is it that every single game, Nebraska comes out looking confused while the other team goes on the offensive?
