Game Thread: Nebraska vs. USC -- Holiday Bowl

[it'sHuskers4me]

I'll probably be happy tomorrow with the fact that we played them down to the wire.

Right now I just feel like puking a bit.

Last time I got sick over a Husker football loss was when Miami beat us in 1984 on the failed two point try. I actually puked that night.

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

I literally feel sick every time we lose.

 

[Red_Alert]

I'm sitting down in the basement now in the darkness drinking a beer.

I do not like USC.

If you haven't had enough, Big Red Over-Reaction is on 1620.

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

I've had enough I think.

The next thing I look forward to is hearing who our Offensive Coordinator is.

I is sad tonight.

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

Alright I'll listen a bit to 1620

typical heart break loss I actually thought we would pull it out and get the win

 

[NE1tm2nv]

I'm actually pleased. It wasn't a blowout as expected. I thought a realistic score would have been like 40 something too 17.

I was disappointed that NU didn't try and kick the game tying field goal. Make it or miss it, at least we would have known... Everybody can say no way Drew makes it, probably not, but fuck off, at least we would have given him a shot at it.... More of a chance than what we ended up with.

Anyway, I'm drank and actually happy there were no melt downs on the sideline and we played hard.

There was a couple times I was pissed off at the effort, but I've learned to expect that... Example: Ameer running outta bounds, half assed with the clock tickin' down. I expect him to bust his ass and get outta bounds.... FUCK. Then Kenny Bell, half heartedly getting outta bounds on that last play till they put a second back on the clock. Get yer asses in gear...



Oh; Randy Gregory, if you read this..... Go to the NFL. You aint that special, mang....

 

[NE1tm2nv]

We had an awesome party. Vittels were great, company was better and I'm drunker than f'....

It's a good night...

Tommy Armstrong

51 attempts
1 interception
3 TDs passing
1 TD rushing

We all suspected it would be a flinging game.

Nebraska was Tommy Armstrong,

[Ritzarmy]

Sorry Nebraska fans I really wanted you guys to beat the Trojans. 1) I cheer for ALL Big10 schools to do well unless they play Penn State 2) I never liked the cocky Trojans 3) My best friend is a die hard Husker fan so got to support you guys. I wish you guys the best next season with your new coach.

I think the FG would have been about 47 yds.

Cotton said they had already drawn a line in the sand on where they thought Brown could make it from and it was outside of that.

My question is knowing that you were going to go for it on 4th down anyway, why not run it on 3rd and 3 and make 4th down more doable?

Our passing coordinator is a dipshit.

That's the only thing I can come up with.

 

[Red_Alert]

I think Beck will get a decent job as an OC somewhere in FBS. Potentially even a lower end P-5.

I think Poopchips is shit outta luck as a DC. A position coach at a mid-major is probably the best he can hope for.

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

Can you imagine how bad that game would have been if USC wouldn't have dropped all those gift wrapped INT's?

We probably would have lost something like 62-28 instead.

 

[HuskerPower52]

Poop will be lucky to get a high school gig

 

[HuskerInSecLand]

But the high school sure won't be.

But they did drop them. There is no "almost intercepted" category on the stat page.

 

[HuskerPower52]

Can you imagine if every throw TA was a TD

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

Can you imagine if every throw TA was a TD

That would be crazy.

But that would mean first off that all the passes would have to hit hands and not turf.
