[personal] [Husker] speechless

Hello Husker Fans,

It surely was an amazing win. Good to see Callahan win a thriller,
rather than lose a thriller.  I was very disappointed with way we let
them back in.

Ironically, take away 3 plays in the second half and we pretty much
stopped them.  Had Shanle gone for the tackle on third and long rather
than going for the strip, we win this one going away probably.  Or if
Shanle turns around on that duck that Lane threw (Grixby had coverage,
so he should have been looking for the ball).

That all being said, what great heart coming back from behind late
like that.  Peterson both made some great catches and dropped some he
should have caught on that last drive.  Erickson came up with a big
catch also to keep the drive alive.

aTm was somewhat generous to us as well.  When their RB ran out of
bounds on that first sweep, I was telling my dad that it was HUGE!  Of
course, he was in Callahan hating mode at that time and kept telling
me, "It doesn't matter".  Then we blocked the kick and came alive.

The late hit was also very generous.  It was a good call, so there was
no debating that, just a really bad decision.  Both of those gift
plays kept us in it.

A win is a win.  Especially a road win at Kyle field, they don't come
easy.  Huskers really played great the last 2 minutes of the game, and
sometimes that's all that matters.

GO BIG RED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

P> Wow, I was already muttering to myself: "Same old 2nd half collapse!"
P> It almost seemed as if the Huskers had mailed it in once again, but then
P> that blocked field goal lit a spark and it was enough!  I still don't 
P> know how we pulled this one out.

P> Wow, it really seems we treat Texas A&M like Texas treats us.  We've 
P> absolutely owned them in Big 12 play; the last two wins in College 
P> Station coming in unbelievably heartbreaking fashion for the Aggies.

P> I'm glad I didn't post my thoughts on the game until it finally ended.
P> I'd have been mighty embarassed...probably not the only one though!
