USC Game Highlights

I am not going to lie or apologize, but this was the best game I saw by the Huskers this year (4 quarters).  Yeah it sucked to lose and come so close, for sure.  But if you watched it objectively, it was a fun game to see.  

Huskers led 7-0 on pick six

USC tied it and went up 14-7.

EJ taking it to the house on a screen pass - 14-14

Half-Time

Huskers go up 17-14 on USC

USC responds and goes up 21-17

Huskers kick a FG to make it 21-20

Huskers block a short FG attempt to keep it 21-20

USC gets a long winning drive to go up 28-20

Huskers have one last play with :05 from the 19 and the DPI is ignored, ball-game.

Throw in the crazy bounces and unsportsmanlike penalties, all both teams looking for a win with their backs against the wall.  Sure, an OT game would have been awesome ending and a Husker win would have been the best case possible.  But, it was an enjoyable game in Southern California, and the TV angle is so amazing that I wish most games were that close up.
