That Game Was....

[Guy Chamberlin]

Bo Pelini's Husker career condensed into 60 minutes of football.

 

• Erratic, mistake-prone execution by offense, defense and special teams, all out-of-sync at the same time.

 

• Flashes of brilliance to confirm that the talent is there, sparking an almost cruel flicker of hope.

 

• Somehow doing just enough to beat a team you're expected to beat, and wrapping up a 9 win season.

Won against all odds. Great team win by a team beaten up by November, media, and fans. Proud of them.

Good thing we have him then.

I bet we would have had a hard time of winning if we ran backwards as well.

The most disgusting display of Monkey sh#t I have ever seen grace a football field. That game sums up Bo's career and should be reason enough to sh#t can him alone. #wastedtalent

Spot on post. A true microcosm of his time here. If we could ever put together a complete 4 quarters, in all 3 phases we would be world beaters and planning who we would be playing in the playoffs........

Inaccurate post, he didn't go ballistic (much) on refs, players, his coaches, half-time interviewers, marching band, geico gekko, etc.

 

Not a typical game at all.

 

(Otherwise, yes, spot on.)

[AngryHusker88]

Cruel flicker of hope pretty much sums my thoughts on the season...I actually thought (prior to Wisconsin) that we could win out & possibly make the playoffs...yes I actually believed this

And? Isn't that what a HC is supposed to do, recruit difference makers who can make plays? The point is Bo recruited him and focused on punt returns as a priority this off season to allow that part of STs to blossom. I don't get your point at all if you are somehow trying to use it as an indictment on Bo.

No indictment, just an observation

[AngryHusker88]

The indictment on Bo is the embarrassment at Wisconsin. Recruiting DeMornay Pierson-El & beating Iowa is a positive...just not a big enough one to overcome giving 408 yards in 3 quarters to one player (IMO - as I am not the one who has the power to $***can him)

No disagreement here, I have just seen this flipant statement put out there several times as if got his should be a negative on the team and Bo. Frankly It bothers me, why should having an All Maerican Punt Returner helping win a game be a negative? Just let a good thing be a good thing, it doesn't mean you have to change your stance on Bo, good or bad. Just tired of the flipant negative statements based in nothing.
