Comish Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 ANGLES.............! and mental discipline (Was this the first attempt all year to seriously go after a punt?) Quote Link to comment
RedNLeader Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Sorry but that is one rule that needs to be worked on or just needs to go Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 I hate it when something like SJB's boneheaded play happens. But I can understand the point of the rule. The punter is extended in an extremely vulnerable position. One good hit could easily end a punter's playing days. I think that is why the rule errors on the safe side. And doesn't allow for any contact at all, including incidental, harmless contact. Still, it sucks when a play like that happens to your team. And costs you a TD. Quote Link to comment

Count 'Bility Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Well all I can say for lil bro is great job in miami were taught to lay da wood sovi say the punter got lucky for that bullsh*** call but the coaching staff didn't even give him the chance too make it up too y'all husker fans but rather sit him out the whole game but it's cool he learned his lesson u know thats bo n the start husker football way Wow. Drink a glass of water. Take a nap. Sober up. Then come back and make an attempt at english, so we can finally welcome you to the conversation. Good grief. Boneheaded attempt in my mind. Just take the ball at that point. But those things happen. I noticed the Wisconsin protector was making a check before that snap. Any chance they half-assed let Babtiste through trying to draw him in for such penalty, if they knew he wouldnt get there in time anyway? Quote Link to comment
shyndy Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Am I the only one that thinks kickers and punters should be fair game? Should be the same as a QB, you get a step or two after release to hit them Quote Link to comment
Danimal Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Going for the block once in a blue moon doesn't work. We need to either practice more and work on blocks against the lesser teams or just quit going for them altogether. We did the same crap against Mich with similar results. Quote Link to comment
onlyHskrfaninIL Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 just a bone head play. trying to do too much instead of playing his role. i wonder if they would have called anything if he would have wrapped the punter and just held him up? Quote Link to comment
3rd and long Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Am I the only one that thinks kickers and punters should be fair game? Should be the same as a QB, you get a step or two after release to hit them If that were the rule, how long would a kicker like Alex Henry who was a game changer have lasted? Those guys are way too vulnerable to not afford them the protection. 2 Quote Link to comment

Any chance they half-assed let Babtiste through trying to draw him in for such penalty, if they knew he wouldnt get there in time anyway? He doesn't post often, but there's a pretty good reason that "big bro" refers to SJB as "lil bro." There's really no need to go jumping someone's sh#t over how they construct a post. His post wasn't difficult to decipher, but if you need it spelled out for you, it goes a little something like this: All I can say is, "good job, little brother!" In Miami we're taught to lay the wood, so I say that punter was lucky to get that BS call. It's too bad the coaches didn't give him a chance to make up for the penalty and sat him for the rest of the game, but he learned his lesson so it's cool. That's just Husker football with Coach Pelini." 3 Quote Link to comment
Count 'Bility Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Good thing no-one takes anything serious on this board. I'm laughing right now. Quote Link to comment
huKSer Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 If I remember, to SJB defense - wasn't the Wisky guy a rugby style kicker, or was that the last game? If he normally goes rugby, but one time goes regular you could be caught off guard. Quote Link to comment
Count 'Bility Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Actually, I think Wisconsin's punter is the first conventional straight on punter we've seen in 19 years. Or at least it seems that way. Quote Link to comment
