Just finished the second quarter. We got jobbed, big time, on that backwards pass just before half. Their QB threw it backwards, clearly, and they ruled it incomplete, and it's not reviewable. That's a TD and it's 31-7 going in to halftime. Instead, KU keeps the ball and with the field goal it's 24-10 Huskers.

You can tell exactly where Kansas got momentum in this game. They were on their own five yard line, Barmann was in the end zone, we rushed, and KU connected on a desperation 40-yard strike between two defenders. It was lucky, but it gave the Jayhawks confidence and you could see the defense deflate. They played at 3/4 speed after that.

Our DBs were terrible. Tierre Green and Courtney Grixby - love them both, but they would never have started in our heyday. Neither of these guys would have been anywhere near the top of the depth chart. Overall there was just too much running up into traffic and not enough solid play. We got run around a lot in that quarter.

Jon Cornish was a beast. All props to that guy.

FOX Sports sucks. They show us icing their kicker not once but twice, so we get to watch a couple of timeouts back-to-back, but they cut Nunn's brilliant punt return out of the rebroadcast. Who thinks that's good TV?

EDIT - forgot to mention how impressed, again, I am with Zac Taylor. If we had a defense and an O Line, that kid would have/should have gotten Heisman consideration. He was Tebow before Tebow was Tebow. Big, tough, accurate, and he took an absolute beating back there every game and got back up, every time.

2. I really think Grixby was a solid corner, and played like it to an extent in '07, but just got manhandled in '06 having to go up against guys over half a foot taller and probably 30+ lbs. heavier. If he would have been able to play with a capable teammate for the big bodies receivers, and had good tutelage, he would have been all Big XII. Just my opinion.

3. Again, love Zac Taylor. Really, really, really miss watching that guy play. Such a high character individual as well.

Edit: The bomb to Hardy where Taylor was rolling out right, c$%ks his arm back and just throws it as hard as possible whilst falling out of bounds is one of my top 10 favorite Husker plays. Don't know why, I just really love that play.

I always thought Grix should've stayed on offense. Explosive out of his cuts, great top end speed. run the bubble screens to him and let him slip between guys for a first down. Run him underneath on the drag and watch him turn upfield for 20. Plus he's fresh for punt returns.
