skerfan1705 Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Last thing I have heard was that Dillard was having great practices...I at least thought he would SUB in from time to time...does anyone know anything?? And what was the deal with ONLY playing Castille...yes he had a great game, but I thought we'd see more of Lucky...and was Helu Injured??? Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 I thought I caught a glimpse of Dillard standing on the field ONCE, but that's it. The deal with playing ONLY Castille was that he was the hot hand and having the game of his life. That's what our RBBC system is like...sorry, Helu fanboys, but he didn't have such a good game today. It happens. Lucky had some chances (but only on receptions), ran into a ref...I don't know, it could be that he is still not 100%. I don't really see what the big problem is. Quote Link to comment
NUpolo8 Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 I think Helu's head being removed from his body after that first (and thankfully, only) swing pass attempt pretty much ended his day. Quote Link to comment
WIHusker Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 I think Helu's head being removed from his body after that first (and thankfully, only) swing pass attempt pretty much ended his day. Yeah, pretty sure Helu was a little concussed after that play...and did anyone else scream PUMP FAKE JOE? Quote Link to comment
topekahusker Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 The thread is buried now but I posted an interview with Lucky in a publication (Sunday?) that he admitted his turf toe was still bothering him. The thread would be in the debate about who starts today. Bo mentioned in the post game comments that Helu had a medical condition discovered last night and gave it his best. I wasn't listening that close to get the details. Quote Link to comment
huskerswrkhavoc Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Helu wasn't even dressed in the 2nd half. Quote Link to comment
HSKRNOKC Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Dillard is what I cant figure out. was he rusty? Quote Link to comment
General Blackshirt Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 After those first few series Helu must have realized he just couldn't go today; whether it be that hit, injury, or whatever, something must have been wrong. Quote Link to comment
newenglandhusker Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 The screen pass has never worked in the history of football. I can't believe they ran that play again after the Smoklahomo defense made us pay for it. Stupid stupid stupid. Quote Link to comment

The middle screen's have worked really well Quote Link to comment

strigori Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 there was a mention in an AP game recap that Helu had a knee injury. So that would be a good reason we didnt see him again. Quote Link to comment
Cali Sker (in Boston) Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 there was a mention in an AP game recap that Helu had a knee injury. So that would be a good reason we didnt see him again. The one I just got done reading said "knee infection". I don't know how that can happen unless you've had surgery or something. If it was indeed an injury, he's a tough SOB to be out there getting pummelled like he did. Quote Link to comment

If it was indeed an injury, he's a tough SOB to be out there getting pummelled like he did. Yeah, I wonder when that infection started. Alex Henery kicked four field goals, including three in the second half. Quentin Castille , filling in for injured starter Roy Helu Jr. (knee infection), ran for 125 yards. And Nebraska's defense held Clemson to 91 yards in the second half. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/football/...cast_recap.html Quote Link to comment
