VectorVictor Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Hey everyone--can someone give me an abbreviated recap? I've been busy dodging tornadoes down here in Dallas-Ft. Worth this evening, and our TV is still out. :-| Quote Link to comment
Micheal Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 I am just utterly amazed that refs mess up this bad, with reviews, what the heck they review for, has anyone ever seen a player not get ejected? Quote Link to comment
lo country Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 I'd like to hear what exactly Mora said to Nate. Looks like he was joking and it was a good hit..... 1 Quote Link to comment
It'sNotAFakeID Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 I don't have a problem with them throwing a flag on the tackle. Football is a fast game and that was a bang-bang hit that I could see the instinct be to throw the flag. My problem is that they reviewed it, had minutes to look over it from different angles and in slow motion, AND THEY STILL THOUGHT IT WAS AN ILLEGAL HIT. 2 Quote Link to comment
Hujan Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 There will be a time when we look back on college football and won't be able to believe that we actually ejected players for things like this. It will be the like when you learn about the Salem witch trials in school: "Wait, wait, wait. You could make a tackle, and if you hit the guy too hard and your helmets even came close to brushing, they threw you out of the game? No, way. That's crazy!" Quote Link to comment

VectorVictor Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Wait--we got another kid ejected on a BS call? Dafuq? Quote Link to comment
okaive Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 I am just utterly amazed that refs mess up this bad, with reviews, what the heck they review for, has anyone ever seen a player not get ejected? Actually yes, today a call got overturned in the Va Tech game. 1 Quote Link to comment
84HuskerLaw Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Review of a call that 'affirms' a bad judgement call creates an even bigger distrust of the integrity and honesty of the officiating and calls into question the legitmacy of the entire game itself. If the clearly incorrect calls are reviewed and adjudged to be correct, then the message being sent to the fans it that the outcome of the game is NOT being determined by the honest and sincere and legitimate efforts of the players and coaches. In fact, it suggest the outcome is being determined by persons other than those directly participating and competing. If the games are being rigged or the outcomes manipulated (as many fans have argued over the years about given games, teams, programs, conferences, etc.), then it becomes nothing more than "All Star Wrestling" or other theatrical performances. The game itself is threatened. Â Calls that are NOT properly corrected after careful and timely 'review' with all the cameras and films and ability to use slow motion, different angles, etc, then we know the games are not 'real' sporting events. The winners and losers are being selected and not decided based on honest hard work and competition on the field. Quote Link to comment
Swiv3D Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Can we have a centralized office for reviewing plays like hockey, yet? Quote Link to comment
Frustrated Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Can someone post video from McMullin's sack the play before? I am at the game and feel like the Gerry penalty was a total make-up call. Quote Link to comment

huskerfan74 Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 I never liked pelini's antics but Mike Riley's lack of emotion is really suspect. He must have been neutered by Eichorst before coming to Nebraska. No other explanation for the lack of balls on this coaching staff. I guess getting neutered to get salaries is not bad for these coaches. I feel bad for Gerry. That should have been a top ten play and not an ejection. The referee who called that is an idiot. 1 Quote Link to comment

Nate gets ejected on the worst targeting BS call EVER. I mean EVER. Hopefully this is the future O we run. PA, counters and power run game. Â D started iffy, but settled down. Reeves our and possibly MRI. Â Hope you and your family is safe 1 Quote Link to comment
