longtimefan Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 If Henery had missed the field goal, the game would have been all but over for us. I think people would of remembered the game as "Bonehead Moves I and II". Pelini admitted the fake field goal was a bonehead call and he was right. Joe Gantz's bonehead move was him taking a 14 yard sack in the 4th quarter when we were sitting on the 25 yard line and have a kicker like Henery. Actually this would of been Joe's Bonehead II move already (Texas Tech interception in overtime). Don't get me wrong though, I am a big Joe G. fan and we wouldn't of probably have been this good without him. But I'm glad Henery bailed out Peleni and Joe this time. Quote Link to comment

SkullandBones Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 And what about the officiating? It sucked again, I thought. But then so did our defense............for the first two series anyway. After that they were pretty much Blackshirts. After the second CU touchdown they showed a shot of Bo: "Where the f*&ck was the corner?" Love that guy. Quote Link to comment

I think people would of remembered the game as "Bonehead Moves I and II". Pelini admitted the fake field goal was a bonehead call and he was right. Joe Gantz's ... lost me here. We would not be in this position (8-4) without either of them...so I don't get it either. These people are human, just like everyone else that coaches or plays, nobody is perfect. If they would have pulled off that fake field goal, you would have been singing his praises, but because it didn't work and backfired your yanking Bo's chain hiding behind a keyboard - after Bo already called it boneheaded himself on National TV. As far as Joes sack, what would you have done? Flown over the tacklers, or throw the ball out of bounds when your not out of the tackle box and take a penalty? Joe didn't just fall down, he put forth some effort to escape, and if he would have, again you would have been singing his praises. Joe set the single season passing record today - that don't mean anything? Again, we would not be 8-4 without these guys. We wouldn't have been in this position (going to a bowl) under BC. You have to take the bad with the good... Quote Link to comment

huskerpilot Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 our good bowl hopes would be shattered, seniors would be depressed, and people would be calling for pelini's head. Husker nation would be in dissaray again. Thank God for Henry's amazing awesomeness!!! Quote Link to comment

There were some pretty crappy calls in the West Virginia-Pitt game too today. Think NCAA needs to look into doing something, either that or make it so that you can challenge their penalties and have them reviewed. It is funny how everyone in the stadium can see when a call is blown but their isn't an official on the field that sees it. Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 That no-call at the end of the half was garbage. Also, as the TV announcers noted, it should have been down on the fake FG that blew up in our faces. (But we probably deserved that one) Quote Link to comment

There were some calls that were 'interesting' as Pelini would say. Quote Link to comment
