Notre Dame Joe Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 How can you be unprepared for a team you already prepared for and beat? Maybe Huskers don't get the obsession the Big10 has with making the Rose Bowl. Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 A&M ALWAYS under performs. Nick Saban would disagree. Or was that sarcasm? Quote Link to comment
GBR #1 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Listening to Bo now...the players didn't execute. Geez, can we start over? 4-5 years max on coaches of late. Oh oh, he just told Dirk that he is responsible. Quote Link to comment
EbylHusker Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 They call helmet to helmet like that when the other guy doesn't have the ball. When the guy has the ball and hunkers down for contact, and helmets hit, they don't call it. That's how it's intended. It was helmet to helmet on a block that wasn't necessary. They called it. Edit - Meaning the helmet to helmet wasn't necessary, not the block itself. Quote Link to comment
BigAppleBucky Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Interesting, Wisconsin taking the ball. Surprised they didn't defer. Bielema got that from Ferentz. But when the UW offense was horrible, he did defer for a couple of weeks. Quote Link to comment
irafreak Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 This press conference is getting icky Quote Link to comment
EbylHusker Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Oh, and I'm not arguing in favor of the rule. But that is the rule. It was helmet to helmet (totally unintentional) and it was flagged. They don't care if Bell couldn't have moved his head...they care his helmet contacted the other guys on a block like that. 1 Quote Link to comment
WoodyHayes1951 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 A&M ALWAYS under performs. Nick Saban would disagree. Or was that sarcasm? No one was expecting them to win. That's when it happens. To come up big I can't trust three teams. Sparty, UGA and A&M. Quote Link to comment

The biggest reason this play was flagged -- NO ATTEMP to wrap up -- Quote Link to comment
Hooked on Huskers Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Curt Phillips: 6-8-0. Yes, only eight .....and of course zero picks Quote Link to comment
EbylHusker Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Wrap up what? He was blocking...? I'm confused. My point is just that in the view of the refs, if you're going to throw a block on someone up there, your helmet better not hit theirs. If it does and they see it, you'll be flagged. That's just the way it is these days. 1 Quote Link to comment
mquerry Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Is the postgame over? Looking for a link or something to it. Quote Link to comment
Haspula Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Where is the post game conference on omaha.com? Quote Link to comment
BigAppleBucky Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I saw holding down field.... Well, then that's a payback non-call for the holding on their 60 yard TD run. There were a whole lot of no calls on holds the entire game. I think there was only one holding call the entire game - on Mathais of Wisconsin who blatantly grabbed a jersey. Mathais was in due to the Costigan concussion. Quote Link to comment
