TX-Husker-2011 Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 A win is a win as far as I'm concerned. I thougth the last play was a good no-call, believe it or not. No way he could've caught that pass. Quote Link to comment
vwaldoguy Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 The ESPN headline says it all. "#16 Huskers Survive". Wow not a pretty game, and we sure have a lot of work to do for next week. Not sure I would have went for it on 4th and 2 like Cally did there in the 4th quarter, but it worked out in the end. Quote Link to comment

hack Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 really? you must mean the bowman catch and the two defensive stands in the red zone, cause that's the only real things i can remember the blackshirts doing during the game. they ran straight at us and right around us. they picked us apart like no-ones business. wake forest is good, but they ain't THAT good. cos had better set the boys down and have a talk about tackling.

Drowning_in_the_Sea_of_Red Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 I mean that last possession Wake Forest had... after we failed on 4th down. That was not a good call, IMO. Quote Link to comment
hack Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 yah, ugly win. time to check up on the other big xii teams. Quote Link to comment
husker rob Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 i think----i dont know what to think but no matter what was said to the papers about not looking forward to the USC game, i think that is just what our defense did. the WF DC came up with a good gameplan to shut down the Husker running attack, and Sam Keller looks really uncomfortable back there right now.

EbylHusker Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 Ugh, not a pretty game. I think a positive thing is that we definitely didn't play our best and we ended up winning a tough road game, if only barely. Any previous season under Callahan, I don't think we could have played like that and beat a team like Wake on the road. So I still see an overall improvement in the team, but bleh, they can't play like that and expect to win against anyone better than Wake. Quote Link to comment
mjmartin1970 Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 I think, well I think it is another 8-5/9-4 season. We play like this (and yes, I think we can improve) and I project lots of losses in our future. Quote Link to comment

You are absolutely correct. We all can bitch and moan about how they played and beleive me, I have done tons of bitching for everyone; however, we are 2-0. Now let's forget this game, and get ready for the Trojans. Quote Link to comment

nebraskan-N-texas Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 I think BC is a dumb A$$ I am sorry, but I agree with the call from Callahan. Here are my thoughts on why we go for it on 4th down. 1) we go for the field goal and it's blocked; better field position or possible return. 2) Punt-It could get blocked 3) try to pooch punt and miss-kick and give good field position or a possible return. This is just my thoughts and I know a majority of you are going to agree with me. Quote Link to comment
