How did you handle the loss to the refs?

[theneguy95]

I think it's been about 10 years since there's been a good enough reason for me to "unrationally" punch holes in any walls, but I just couldn't hold it back this time... Nebraska has been getting screwed by crooked refs and bogus calls all season, but this was sooooooo blatantly obvious. How can the conference get away with it? I just don't get how the NCAA has come down on schools, players, coaches, etc so why not on conferences? Can't wait to get to the Big 10; if not for anything else other than something more honest and just. Don't get on me about, "man why did you punch holes in your wall?" or anything like that... it's not a question of stupidity or lack of control, but curious if anyone else had as much trouble handling this as me?

Nice work my friend. I almost did the same, but my wife was standing by me.

I didn't punch holes in the walls, but I'd be ok with forfiting the rest of the b12 games. Piss on them! They should be ashamed and beebe should be prosecuted!

I'm not the kind to voice expletives in the house with the wife and kids sleeping upstairs but i did. Never been so pissed about a game....ever.

Lowes sells some excellent drywall kits my friend. GBR.

Actually, for me, this one didn't hurt so bad. We didn't lose the games; the refs won it. You can't win when it's 11 vs. 15. Or however many of those toadie sob's were out there.

I really wanted to start yelling and punching the wall (just hitting it, not putting a hole in it), but my roommate was home so I had to force myself to simmer quietly

This was actually the easiest loss to take ever. I've never once felt this way about a loss. Its almost like we actually won in my head.

Really, you've got to hand it to them. The refs stayed focused the entire game. It would've been easy for them to let up and rest their arms, but they kept throwing flags all game long. Conditioning was the key for them. We tried to keep up with them, but they just outlasted us. Hats off to the refs, they had a plan, and executed it to near perfection. They even overcame that near slip up in the 4th quarter when one of them had a mental breakdown and tossed a flag on A&M.

 

Seriously, gotta hand it to Bo, he sounded calm in the post game interviews.

 

Ultimately, the game meant very little if we take care of business against Colorado. It'll cost us a few spots in the end of year rankings, but we weren't going to go to the championship game anyway. The Big 12 championship is still in our grasp, though with Martinez hurt that's going to be a lot tougher. If we win the Big 12, we've got a BCS bowl.

Semi-neutral input (I obviously don't like aggy and I kinda do like y'all, but I can be pretty objective when Texas isn't directly involved)...

 

Y'all was hosed like a mother. 16 to 2? And one on them was picked up? Seriously? F-ing garbage.

At least it wasn't a person. I was at BWW and about threw my cup at the TV. The late hit was so bush league its not even funny. I don't like watching Big 10 games, mostly bc they are all at 11, but I can't wait to get to that conference. Those were the same officials as we had during the Iowa St. game that Burkhead almost got a broken neck, but we got the penalty! Wonder why we got those refs again...

[BigRedNV]

I went and upped my vaseline supply 'cuz my @ss hurts so F(#CKIN bad!!!! Our offense was bad, but come the F#*# on! This was the Big 12 ref game I've been waiting for!

[Crescent City Husker]

I put three holes in various walls during the texas game, same thing I did in 02 (including a dent in my car door)and 06 after losing to texass..but none tonight.....I certainly understand your pain and expression of frustration...been there my friend....GBR-crush cu!

[Chaddyboxer]

Our offense had signs of greatness during this game...but if we would've executed a bit better...this game was ours to take...even with the refs jobbin us...
