That's good to know. When Bo exited the field, he paused at the door and 
looked back, with rather a pensive look on his face. I got the feeling 
he was reacting to the booing.

  It was a poorly officiated game.

I suspect the game tape will receive some scrutiny at the league office.

And, on the call against Crick, the replay clearly showed that the Tech 
OL had his hand on Crick's face mask. How the official saw Crick's foul 
but not the Tech kid's is difficult to fathom.

And the "contact" was close to nonexistent.

Having said all that, the Huskers were not beaten by the officials they 
created this mess totally on their own.
