I mean, yes, we didn't have a great game, but that was just BullSh&8%t. I mean, that showed no respect to our D, who had a very good game.

 
Yeah. I was trying to think of any particular NU standouts, though. The D, as a unit, had some REALLY great drives. Maybe it's me, but I'd rather see an effective unit than a single force. We really, and obviously, need to strengthen our DBs. Just think what our d would be with just "Fairly decent" dbacks.

I don't know if it's a dback coaching issue or what... but just dream with me... drrreeeeaaaammm.

Agree completely - people want to blame Grix - and he did get just used tonight - but I saw quit a few plays where our safeties should have been making the play.

If Koz is gone, at least Elmo should be.

 
I think what bothered me the most, is I have NEVER seen the players of the game being from the same team, and I have watched a lot of college football in my time. Can anyone else remember a situation where that has occured before????????????????

I would have gone with BJAX for the Huskers even though he didn't play the whole game because he was effective on the ground when he was in, and losing him changed the dynamics of the game.

:yeah Seeing two sooner players up there absolutely rubbed me the wrong way. I mean sure we probably didnt have one single stand out player, but I've seen guys up there before that had like 5 tackles and that was it!!

 
Didn't we have a walk on kicker get player of the game a few years ago for making one kick against Colorado. IMO, Cryer should of been player of the game tonight. He was a beast on the line.

 
They may have played better, but where is the line as to when one team can get both players of the game. I brought up the walk-on kicker to show that even in a crappy effort by one team, they still gave the team a player of the game award.

 
I think Titchener out kicked the OU punter by a bunch. We got great field position and they got poop. :) I know it isn't a glamour position. KMA ABC your HD sux. most of the replays looked like digital camos.

I don't think we are alone in wondering about this. From the sound of the announcers voice he seemed baffled by the whole thing.

 
I wonder who gets to make the picks. this is the first time I have seen two players from the same team win it. I am not saying it hasn't happened before but it does seem odd. I will leave the conspiracy theory to others to debate ( there can be a good argument for both sides here). I have sometimes wondered if they picked one from each team to keep from seeming biased. I personaly think that there should be a offensive and defensive player of the game. If they happen to be on the same team so be it, just have some guide lines to go by.

Yeah, he was saying that they have to double check with someone to see if OU would get $2,000 or just $1,000....I don't think it is right they gave it to both players, especially since it goes into a scholarship fund!

 
They should of gave Grixby player of the game with the OU logo next to his name, cause he basically played FOR them last night.
