Game Thread: #7 Nebraska @ #11 Wisconsin -- 6pm CST on ESPN

[Smotis]

Remember when Riley said we needed to run more to the outside and more bootlegs? What happened to that plan? When we did it we got 5-10 yards. Instead we keep running it up the middle for 0-3 yards tops. I just don't get the play calling. I could blame the refs for the no calls but fuck our play calling is just fucking dumb most of the time.

I think Riley and Langsdorf really screwed this up. Last possession with 2 timeouts and they play for OT. The in OT running up the middle, that produced little gains all night. Needed to let Tommy make it happen with option decisions. I really fell Riley and Langsdorf are not all in tune with what is working on the field.

One of those runs pretty much all 11 Huskers were line up inside the hashmarks. Why oh why

Also plenty of blocks in the backs tonight uncalled - water out to sea I guess....

 

[Smotis]

Whatever happened to sticking with what's working?

We already knew that time management is not one of their strengths. With what they do with the kids though I'm willing to live with it.

Sorry meltdown done

 

[tometom]

yea, nothing can be done. i'm going to forget and move on.

i was really impressed with the oline tonight, they took huge steps forward imo. hope it can continue to next week. thought the WRs could have done more to help TA, but again i didn't think DL put them in the best position to make plays. no clue in the first half why we kept sticking with 6-8yd curls that their DBs and LBs were all over. also that deep ball TA threw where Moore tried a stop and go sort of thing, the guy was playing like 10 yds off, TA needs to see that and not throw it.

defense played ok. i mean Wiscy's offense isn't Top 10 or anything. The long runs were just some really poor fits it looked like, some guys being out of position, that was what killed me with how good we were at times. Gerry played amazing, except that one time clement stiffed armed him hard, no clue why he tried to go high like that, if he would have went low he would have gotten him.

Aint reading all this, all i gotta say is that was some bullshit! Holding/PI on westy during OT and wasnt called. FUCKING BULL SHIT i get that they wanted to let most of it play out in regulation but come the fuck on wisconsin had 3:1 holding/pi easy against us.

 

[tometom]

i'm done too. have a good night fellas.

 

[Smart]

Can't get down. Best OSU. Beat meatchixken and see where shit falls

I don't think there's any question you control your own destiny. If you win out, even if Washington, Clemson, and Bama go undefeated, you'd easily be #4.

 

[HuskerPower52]

Well. Fuck.

 

[HuskerPower52]

I just might drink more then I should and bitch all fucking night about how westerkamp didn't get a pass interference call.

 

[HuskerInSecLand]

Sounds like a plan.

 

[HuskerPower52]

Fuck fuck k fuck k fuck fuck fuck fuck ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Should have thrown a hail Mary before the half

 

[HuskerPower52]

I hate so much that is everything Wisconsin.

 

[HuskerPower52]

I am not longer a packers let's fan. I am a raiders fan now

I'm struggling to come up with words. Me heart hurts bad right now.

Well fought game and we were literally 1 play short of being undefeated right now.

It seems like the play calling is dumb at the most critical times. Also, there may be only a couple of teams in America that are good enough to overcome SHIT officiating like what we saw tonight against a team as good as Wiscy.

 

[blkflagmafia]

Beck like playcalling...

What really sucks too is after they missed that extra point, I thought we had them by the balls.
