HuckFoley Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 i know we won, and shawn did run the ball on the last drive to chew up clock, but did anyone else notice a deviation from what was working? the 3rd and 2 call, while successful, drove me nuts. I thought shawn called a bad game, and I wouldn't be surprised if he is asked to move on after the end of the season. don't mean to be a killjoy here, but we didn't do jack on offense the entire 2nd half sans that first drive for a td.

missouri_husker24 Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Are there seriously going to be threads on this every freaking weak even when we win? Quote Link to comment
sd'sker Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 we have a defense that wins us the game. all we need is a comfortable lead and the game is over. texas will be different because of their high powered offense, but our offense did what it had to do. Quote Link to comment

knapplc Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 The game plan was to burn clock. Once we got up by two scores, you could see them really ramp down the offense. I'll guarantee that was a conscious decision by Bo and Watson to wear down the defense and burn clock. I'll also guarantee that Bo was involved in the decision. Quote Link to comment

I thought it was more about Nebraska having less then desirable field position after the second touchdown. I'm sure they would have liked to put more space between them and the purples.

I thought it was more about Nebraska having less then desirable field position after the second touchdown. I'm sure they would have liked to put more space between them and the purples. I don't know. You could be right, but knowing Bo's infatuation with defense, I'm betting he felt he had a pretty good thing going when we went up by two scores (and it turns out he was right). But we stopped taking shots downfield, aside from one pass I can recall to Paul for about 15 yards. We stopped going to the TE except for that shovel pass they made a good play on, and I'd bet about half our runs were right up the middle, or off tackle. I'm sure field position played a part, but they weren't pulling out any stops to get in scoring position again. Quote Link to comment
