[Husker] Great performance

[Tommy Thompson]

This was an exciting game, and I must admit, a better performance by the Huskers than I expected.  Texas has a very potent offense, and the Blackshirts shut them down.  My heart was racing from the opening kickoff to the finish.  I'm sure I'm not alone as someone who thought the game was over on Colt McCoy's last play.  Couldn't have been any closer than that.

Some quick comments.

What happened to Helu?  Burkhead was getting a lot of snaps.

Some controversial penalties (pass interference against Hagg) contributed greatly to  6 of Texas' points.

Suh, Crick, Allen, Turner, Hagg, Gomes, Amukura, O'Hanlon, Asante all had great games.  Probably more, but can't think of them right off hand.

Niles Paul also had a great game.

Offense better figure something out before the bowl game.  

My heart is still pounding.
