jsneb83 Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 "Dirty play"?! C'mon, Fans, get over it. I thought BYU played a well coached, clean and disciplined game and they have some great athletes on their team: namely those beastly receivers they have. Bad hits, some they can happen, but were in no way intentional, it's just whining to say so. Give them credit for the W, they earned it every bit as much as we did had it gone the other way. I thought the refs called a good game too, BTW. NE just needed to make one more play and guess what, we didn't. BYU: respect. Wut? https://twitter.com/BrianRTowle/status/640571200339447808 https://twitter.com/danhoppen/status/640543427831074816 Diving at a players knees, from behind, is dirty, no matter how you slice it. Love how he gets on all four before rolling into Sutton's knee. Quote Link to comment
C N Red Posted September 6, 2015 Author Share Posted September 6, 2015 i know it doesn't mean anything now....but i am wondering if we know which players were suspended by BYU? Nobody. The stigma the players have had to live with has been punishment enough. As knapp said in another thread, their "honor code" is a farce and they are hypocrites. Quote Link to comment
It'sNotAFakeID Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 That same guy made the same kind of tackle on Westerkamp in the first quarter. #20. Preator = garbage. Learn to frickin' tackle right. Quote Link to comment

It'sNotAFakeID Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 And the stigma! OH HOW PUNISHING WAS THE STIGMA?! 1 Quote Link to comment
commando Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 i think it was after the game when the fight took place. that means they wouldn't have been flagged and thus avoided the rule that would have had them sitting out the next game. Quote Link to comment

So diving for WR knees behind him while he's defensless is not a dirty play ??? You my friend are enabler, excuse maker, and overall about uninformed as they get. Quote Link to comment
Stumpy1 Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 i know it doesn't mean anything now....but i am wondering if we know which players were suspended by BYU? A starting safety, 2 back up, a stat keeper and the water boy. The main guy that started the whole brawl with Memphis got a free pass because BYU didn't have another center that could snap the ball.

PaulCrewe Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Were the refs B1G refs? If so they should be let go. They acted like they had no clue what was going on most of the time. It took them 5 seconds to figure out we were taking a delay of game on a punt upon many other mistakes and many missed calls. Yes, they were conference refs. Quote Link to comment
Igetbored216 Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 This is the same team that got into a full on brawl - not just a shoving match - with a team in their bowl game. If you don't think that the Sutton hit was dirty, I guess I don't know what to tell you. There's no way he didn't see the ball fly past - he was looking right at Sutton before taking him out. He had plenty of time to stop, but he didn't want to. End of story. Did you actually watch the bowl game? Or just the fight on sportscenter? Yes, as I watch almost all the bowl games, but what does that have to do with it? A fight is a fight regardless of how you are trying to justify it. BYU was pissy because they had lost and they showed their true colors. This is the same team that got into a full on brawl - not just a shoving match - with a team in their bowl game. Hmmm, I seem to recall a team last year, got in 2-3 brawls with this team from, hmmm, the S. FL area I think it was. Maybe somebody can help me out here... Yeah, I'll help. That was called a chippy game. Can you help me out with something? Were there any punches thrown, or was it pushing and a lot of jawing back and forth? Maybe you need to reread what I wrote.

Igetbored216 Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 And for the record, if a Nebraska player ever tackled someone like this, it would still be a cheap shot. He was leg hunting and he succeeded in taking him out. He tried to get Westy earlier in the game, but luckily that time it didn't work. Quote Link to comment
WindowCoug Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 The Preator thing was ugly and there isn't a good excuse. That should have been a flag. I think he hurt himself with poor tackling later too. The kid seemed to get himself to the right spots, but he needs to learn how to tackle and how stay away from other players after a play is over. Sorry to see the Nebraska kid got hurt from bad play by a BYU guy. The rest of this thread seems like stuff you say after a game when you are still sad. That's natural and the sign of invested fans. It was the kind of game that both teams did enough to win, but someone had to lose. 2 Quote Link to comment
