That was fucking retarded.

Bo is a dumbass.

 

[NE1tm2nv]

Your fuckin' kidding me. What the hell was that?
KICK THE FUCKIN' TOP OF THE BALL.. JEEZUS CHRIST.. GROUND FUCKING BALL

 

[sandhill_husker]

Taylor played a hell of a game.

Isn't there a better chance to recover an onside kick if the ball is bounced, not just kicked straight ahead?

Who would have thunk... IN THE AiR.. Never heard of such a thing..

It was a trick kick. He kicked with his left foot.......the idea was to kick the ball past the layer of receivers on that side of the field and one of our fast guys to run down and grab it.

Basically the idea was to try and gain yards out of the onside kick.

 

[Exorbitant]

It'd be more like 65 to 70 seconds left......

He blew a lot of time before the end of the first half also. A field goal at the end of the first half would have taken this game into overtime, or if we scored a TD then, a win.

Yeah that was sure tricky.

It was pretty tricky........he acted like he was gonna kick it to the left side of the field and then ended up cross-kicking it to the right side of the field.

Maher is not left-footed you know

 

[Brasky]

Can we please all agree to take down the championship thread? It's fucking embarrassing.

 

[Exorbitant]

Bo = overrated

Nebraska = overrated

2011 = Another failed year

I'm afraid the way this team is so stumbly bumbly that we'll be very fortunate to win even one game out of the last 3 games.

So what? Bouncing the ball gives the kicking team a better chance to recover the kick.

Stanford won today

That's because they're a good team and a well coached team.

#3 played good.....nothing to bitch about there thats for sure

He had one hell of a game today, but unfortunately the rest of the team and coaching staff wasn't coordinated with him. I would like to give NW some credit though, they outcoached and outplayed our team in Lincoln.

I know that! I'm just saying, we only had 18 seconds. By the time we recovered the kick we would have had about 14 seconds. Then we would need to get into field goal range from our 45 yard line throwing the ball into the wind.

He was trying to get the ball and pick up yards all in one onside kick. Two birds with one stone.

Should have concentrated on one bird first..

Yea....the point was, were we going to have enough time in 14 seconds to go 30 yards to get into field goal range? We needed to get to at least the 25 yard line, we would have been kicking dead into a 40 mph gusting wind.
