Handle that with the BIG10 offices and instill the mentality that it's never ok to leave the game in the ref's hands. He spent a long time both acknowledging that officiating is really difficult and saying we need to play better to avoid even being in the situation. Said things like the missed PI, and missed face mask are just part of the game and don't bother him. But replay missing obvious calls is different - they have all of the time they want and had views clearing showing an outcome they didn't go with. I'm sure there was also a fun phone conversation with the Big Ten office. 1 2 Quote Link to comment

Husker in WI Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 Surprised no one has jumped on the fact that Rhule used the phrase "we have to strain harder." 1 1 Quote Link to comment

The fact that he squared up and gave a solid hit to the LB is a lot more than some guys did all game. Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 This is what I was hoping for. I was hoping White could look at his own game plan and adjust based on what didn't work against MSU. 1 Quote Link to comment

It does seem more likely that the was talking about the TD we should have had against Minnesota. A good rule of thumb is to never rely on Mitch to get specific details right. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Coleman was great and everyone else did their job job on this play, except for the pulling guard who whiffed the block and then helped finish off the tackle of our ball carrier. If he doesn't whiff it's a 10yrd run. Instead it was 5. Quote Link to comment

JEJ and Lutovsky have definitely struggled with that, although a lot of their attempts were against the Purdue edge guys and this example was Nouili. Quote Link to comment
