A little video of Frost as assistant coach at Oregon having to pull Blount off the field after the punch in the game last night.  Dude is still built!!!  He's in the last 1/3 to the end.

Hi everyone,

It's eerily quiet on the list on GameDay.  So I guess maybe a ticket  
request post isn't the worst thing in the world.  My brother and I  
want to go to next week's game.  It'd be the first time we've seen a  
game in Lincoln together in about 20 years!  So if anyone knows of a  
pair of tickets, please let me know.

I'm also headed to today's game.  I'm very excited about the upcoming  
season.  Can we win all our games?  I think so (hey, maybe OU will  
have a bad day :)  Will we?  I don't know...that's why they play  
them.  But what I'm looking for from the season is no 50 point  
blowouts.  If that happens, I'll be happy somewhat regardless of the  
win/loss record.

FAU has a really good QB. It'll be important to put pressure on him,  
which I think we can do.  I have a sneaky feeling our O will sputter a  
bit, so I'm saying 28 - 10.

I will be very disappointed if the Huskers score only 28 points.  They 
should be able to rack up at least 40, and I'm predicting 54-10.

As we enter the second season of Coach Pelini's tenure as Nebraska's head coach, I predict that his teams will never win fewer than 9 games a season; will win the Big-XII North this year; and will win the Big-XII Conference championship next year.
 
The first game of the year is always full of unknowns. Howard Schnellenberger is on heck of a coach and you know that his team will be prepared. If Nebraska can avoid mistakes (dumb penalties and turn overs), then I believe that they will be win by several touch downs.
 
This is best part of the year. And it is always awesome when Nebraska plays on your birthday (let alone it being the first game of the season).
 
Go Big Red!

This should be a fun fame. FAU has a strong offense and an NFL quality QB.
He has not faced the likes of NUs DL before. 

The young LBs (2 rFR startera and a So or Jr at the 3rd) may be tested. 

The FAU D cannot stop NU. So if NU does not stop themselves, should be
49-10.

It'd be nice if it worked...  Think they'd have kinks worked out by now 
with the
internet having been around for just a few years.

I'm glad it's working for those already connected.  I had some errands to run
and I can't connect now.  It worked earlier and may well work later, but the
audio is timing out or not loading at all with a technical difficulties note
for me now.

?We were playing a very good team. It?s a team that is about the 
best-coached team that I?ve been around lately. I think they have some 
very good players, but I don?t think they are overly talented. The sum 
of the parts is a lot greater than the individual talent that they have."

Good observation, but he's still a jerk.

And did anyone else notice that Gilleylen's name was misspelled on his

Message-ID: <a06240800c6c9979f5c35@[10.30.5.129]>

1. Something no one has mentioned: the Owls were unable to score a 
touchdown on the Husker D even when they were first-and-goal on the 
four yard line. Last year it would have been different.

2. Special teams played an order of magnitude better than last year.

3) Two interceptions and a recovered fumble constitute another big 
improvement. If the team hadn't dropped two other ideal interception 
opportunities and if one interception hadn't been called back due to 
a penalty, the improvement would have been truly radical.

4) Players on the lower rungs of the depth chart appeared in the 
first few moments of the game. Bo was serious, real serious, about 
finding out about their abilities early on. That has to be a big plus 
for the coming games.

5) Fall camp talk about Crick was more than mere hype.

6) Bo's development as a Head Coach shows visibly on the sidelines.

I, for one, am deeply gratified to see the walk-on program producing 
solid results once again. We still don't know how good this Husker 
team is going to be, but we can guess how good it can become in 2010, 
2011, and beyond.

I attended the "watch party" at the Radisson Hotel in Tulsa, hosted by the Oklahoma Cornhusker club.  They had nearly 300 people and 180 had registered by 5:00 PM.  They had to split them into two rooms and it was a great time.  My thanks go out to Don and the other organizer's of the event.  We actually rented a room because we had all of our kids swimming in the indoor/outdoor water park. We live about an hour away from Tulsa and I will attend again. Maybe next week if I can talk my wife into taking my 5th grade son to Seminole for his first game as a Cushing Mini-tiger football player.

Now...to the game.

1.) Zac Lee...excellent field presence, great sense of patience.  No worries...only get better.
2.) Cody Green...Tall, Fast and pretty good arm. Reminds me of a better running Freeman (K-State)
3.) Physical play on both sides of the ball...many less missed tackles.
4.) Helu...and Burkhead...no issues other than depth.  I would have liked to see Okafor
5.) Corner's looked good...but the receivers just keep a coming.    That Gillian will be Lee's "go to" guy  
6.) Linebackers...looked pretty stout...and special teams were "caliente"   

These are the reason's college teams win...solid coaching that instills pride, work ethic and actually coaches that actuallt "coach".
This team may surprise alot of Husker fans and the Big 12....

Message-ID: <049f01ca30ac$01dfc1f0$059f45d0$@net>

*** Homer Post Alert ***

I went back and examined their game vs Alabama and I'm even more convinced
that we can put up a good fight (65/35 to win, IMO and not because of the
loss, but how they lost) and here's why:


The Stats

Total Yards: VT was outgained 498 to 155...that's a HUGE disparity. And,
Bama gaining 498 yards shows that VTs defense isn't what it's cracked up to
be.
Rushing Yards: Maybe even more important is the fact that Bama gained 268
yards on the ground at 5.5 yards per rush. If VTs defense is so good, Bama
must have the best offense in the country.
Passing Yards: T. Taylor is not a passing QB, no suprise. However, he was 9
of 20 for 91 yards, but 42 of those were on a screen pass to his RB. If you
take out passes to his RBs (4 of 4 to them), he was 5 of 16 for 35
yards...YIKES.
Greg McElroy was not stellar against VT's vaunted defense, but 15 of 30 for
230 with a TD and a pick is not bad for his first ever college start.


Why the game wasn't as close as it looked

I know they call it 'Beemer ball', but you're not going to score special
teams TDs every game. Their offense sucks, plain and simple (I know Bama's
defense is pretty good, but c'mon).

TD: 98 yard kickoff return
FG: 28 yard FG off of an interception, 4 plays 3 yards.
TD: Started at midfield after a 29-yard return and a 15-yard PF penalty,
setup by the 43 yard screen pass to the RB. 3 rushes from the 5 to score.
TD: 5 yrd pass then 32 yard rush after a decent kick return padded by
another 15-yard PF penalty, 1 of just 2 plays over 20 yards for VT.

All their scores were results of blunders by Bama.


What we need to do to win

Va Tech clearly lives off of mistakes and special teams. We need to limit
turnovers and contain their special teams. On defense, we need to contain
their rushing game and T. Taylor by loading up the box and dare them to
throw. 

If we have 2 or less T.O.'s and don't give up a ST touchdown we win easily.
If we play sloppy on ST and cough up the ball a lot...

Did you really expect anything else?  The statistics stunk and frankly
the play was obviously first game of the season.  The fans loved it and
he could allow that attitude go to the heads of the young men.  We have
a long season ahead of us and focus needs to be maintained.

?
I watched the Alabama - Virginia Tech game as well.? I had a few impressions:
?
1. Alabama is one of the best teams in the country, Virginia Tech isn't.
2. Don't think for one minute that VT does not have a very good defense, they do.? We will need our inexperienced skill position players to grow up fast.
3.? Tech hoped that Tyrod Taylor would channel Vince Young, instead he channels Jamaal Lord.? He is a poor passer and Beamer should be looking to amp up the playbook with the QB draw, zone read, and even an option or two because he can run.
4. Taylor's passing negates to an extent some better than average receivers..? It might be that we look to the CBs for some lockdown man coverage and let the safeties go after Taylor and do run support.
?
Overall, VT is a quality team and we will learn a lot about our guys with this game.? It may be that whichever team's quarterback plays better will win the game.
?
All of this is of course looking ahead, which is dicey.? Let's hope the guys respect, prepare for, and focus on the Red Wolves.? And then dismantle them.? Then we can turn our undivided attention to the Hokies.

I don't think Ark St will be as easy as some might think (probably the best

The thing that will be nice about having Ark St in town is that they are a strong running team. Last year we hit mostly spread offenses and the overall run D was untested going into important games. Art St will give our LBs a great workout before the VT game, which should help us tremendously.

I also concur, I do not really care how many games Skyar looks ahead to. :-)

Absolutely agree Andy.  Especially since VTech isn't going to light the skies up with their passing, this should give us a good tune up to be ready for their running attack (although obviously Ark St's QB isn't going to be mobile on the level of T. Taylor).

Good point.

The thing that will be nice about having Ark St in town is that they are a strong running team. Last year we hit mostly spread offenses and the overall run D was untested going into important games. Art St will give our LBs a great workout before the VT game, which should help us tremendously.

I also concur, I do not really care how many games Skyar looks ahead to. :-)

I don't think Ark St will be as easy as some might think (probably the best
team not in Blacksburg we play out of conference) either.  However, beating
aTm last year wasn't exactly a major accomplishment ;)

Here's a preview I wrote earlier this summer on Arkansas State.

http://www.cornnation.com/2009/6/24/923069/2009-husker-football-opponent

I never understood the fascination with Florida Atlantic; it was clear right from the start that Arkansas State would be the best of the three Sun Belt foes.  Better quarterback and a more balanced offense, and a better defense.  And probably a better tuneup for Virginia Tech.

61-0 should get your attention, no matter who the competition is.

Yep, good point Mike.

I think the 23.5 spread is kinda generous if you ask me (I thought FAU @ 22
was low FWIW).  I think we still could cover, but this is probably the class
of the Sun Belt.

Wow, Mike. Could we disagree any more?

Their strengths play directly into our strengths, they're missing a  
leader on defense, on the offensive line, both fifth year seniors.

This should be an ass-kicking that's over by half unless the Huskers  
show the same screwing around they did in the first half last week.

More importantly I have seen 5 different people send email to the list in the past day. Could it be the list is not dead yet ? I almost wish we had Bob back. Almost. :-)

I vote with Jon, NU matches up against Ark St's strengths too well. If we cannot shut them down there will be bigger issues down the road. I cannot see it less than 30 points.

Why were people more concerned about FAU ? Schellenberger, too many people remember THE Orange Bowl, 2 - they do have an NFL quality QB and 3 they were a bowl victor (over central MI or Western MI or some MAC team like that).

FAU wasn't competitive against BCS conference opponents last year; Arkansas State defeated A&M rather decisively.

I guess I look at Corey Leonard as a better QB than Rusty Smith.  Smith is an NFL prospect, sure, but that's because of his arm.  Leonard can beat you two ways, and those dual-threat QB's always have present more of a problem to me.  Plus they have a much better rushing game with two of the better backs in the Sun Belt.

On defense, they return 8 starters, so if the NU offense can't afford to be as sloppy as they were in the first half last week.

Now, can NU win by 30?  Absolutely.  And they should...but if they play sloppy and start thinking about Blacksburg a little too soon, it could be a whole lot closer than it should be.  ASU is simply a better team than FAU on both sides of the ball, but they're still Sun Belt teams.

Nebraska will score as many points as they feel like scoring against this team. Who knows how many they will give up, but I don't see them getting less than 40-50 points.

FAU wasn't competitive against BCS conference opponents last year; Arkansas State defeated A&M rather decisively.

I guess I look at Corey Leonard as a better QB than Rusty Smith.  Smith is an NFL prospect, sure, but that's because of his arm.  Leonard can beat you two ways, and those dual-threat QB's always have present more of a problem to me.  Plus they have a much better rushing game with two of the better backs in the Sun Belt.

On defense, they return 8 starters, so if the NU offense can't afford to be as sloppy as they were in the first half last week.

Now, can NU win by 30?  Absolutely.  And they should...but if they play sloppy and start thinking about Blacksburg a little too soon, it could be a whole lot closer than it should be.  ASU is simply a better team than FAU on both sides of the ball, but they're still Sun Belt teams.

Wow...the optimism on this list is staggering.

I felt like the Huskers should handle FAU easily, and they did.  However, 
the defense was very much in "bend but don't break" mold, and I didn't like 
that.  I don't think that philosophy will work against Ark St, and it 
certainly won't work against VA Tech.  I think the Huskers offense should be 
able to move the ball, and if the O-line progresses, then the Huskers should 
be able to score.  Lee hasn't been tested in the pocket, though, and I'm 
concerned about how he will handle blitzes and pressure.

If the Huskers defense can play more aggressively and make a few tackles in 
the backfield, then I think the Huskers win by three touchdowns.  If Ark St 
can move the ball, it could be a long night.

I predict that the Huskers will play better than last week, but against a 
better team will show a few serious weaknesses.  That said, I still think 
they win.

Huskers 35 - Ark St 24

Tommy, I tend to agree with your observation about the optimism on this List.  However, what I thought I saw in the play of the D Saturday was rather vanilla...I don't RECALL much in the way of blitzes, thus little pressure on the QB.  The secondary did come through pretty well, helped by some off the target passes.  I also thought we didn't show much on O either.

Those results could be the result of 'keep it simple' and/or not show VT anything to prep for, or other factors (sub-par play).  I tend to believe the former.  I personally liked the tackling I saw by the Black Shirts.

Interesting? That fascinating!!!

Apparently the FAU receivers were prepped to compete against last 
season's Husker defensive backfield but ran up against this season's. 
If this deduction holds, it seems that Sanders's lads have made a 
real transformation.

I hope you all are right.  I didn't see the game, just listened to the 
Internet broadcast, so my judgment is clouded.   It just seemed to me that 
the front four and the LB crew were pretty quiet.  The DB's seemed solid, 
and the article you listed supports that.  I'm still a bit worried.  I think 
Ark State will be much better than FAU, and will present some problems.

Message-ID: <6331313e0909091545q119cd876w91ea74d35b802bbf@mail.gmail.com>

I've been trying to locate a copy of the FAU game for my brother who was at
the game but wants to review.
I'm a newbie here but did search the rules and found:

One 'tape wanted' post per subscriber for any game is permissible .
'Tapes available' posts are not permitted except for occasional
information about commercial sources for such tapes.

Please keep in mind that videotaping of games is covered by US
Copyright law, and that there are organizations that have paid for the
rights to broadcast    games and market videotapes of them.

So I hope I didn't offend or break the "rules".

I saw a torrent with no seeders and couldn't find anything on USENET.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Throw all the money you like at him, and it'll be a waste. If he

For most of these guys, after a certain point, it's less about the actual money and more about the position.  The money is more of an ego thing than anything.  Even so, with the money head coaches make, NU could still double his salary and he'd still make more as a head coach elsewhere.

 
I think a lot of people are worried that Shawn Watson might return to Colorado with Dan Hawkins starting to flame out.  Problem there is that while they may have an opening, the environment in Boulder might actually be the worst in the Big XII.  (Money problems at CU, inability to give assistants multi-year contracts...)  I don't think it takes much to keep Watson away from CU ... unless he really wants to return.

Hi All, Well after promising me almost 40 years ago if I would change my allegiance to the Huskers from Penn State that hubby Don would take me to a game and show  me the fans are much better I am finally going to my 1st game at the stadium tomorrow!

Yahoo!!!

Anyway being visually impaired I may not see all that I want to. If anyone if getting the pay per view game and would burn a cd for me I would be more than willing to help pay for it so I can watch it all over again when we get back to Michigan.

Went to the bookstore today to get red ponchos in case it rains (I hope not) and other appropriate stuff for the game. 

Watching the Colorado/.Toledo game now and poor CO is loosing....boo-hoo/

If you'd have told me four years ago that a Dan Hawkins-coached team  
looked this bad, I'd have told you you were off your rocker.

Yeah, they're getting it handed to them pretty bad (37-10 right now)...by
TOLEDO.

This may be Dan Hawkins last game, at the very least it will probably seal
his fate with the Buffaloes....

Remember his 10 win guarantee this year?

Colorado has a nasty habit of losing during the non conference season,
then playing tough during Big-XII play. I wouldn't count them out of a
run at the North just yet. While it is not likely that they will do
anything, I wouldn't be too surprised if they did.

Here's to hoping that the our boys in scarlet and cream don't look past
Arkansas State to Virginia Tech.

Go Big Red!

Not at this rate.

Dan Hawkins should be clubbed to death for keeping Cody Hawkins in for  
that entire game. He got speared on a run at the end of the game,  
looked like he was on another planet when he tried to get up.

  That was ridiculous. Idiotic. It was damned near abuse.

Colorado will probably give us a helluva game and we should not take 
them lightly, but there is no way they make a run for the Big XII North 
title.  The overall program is in complete turmoil that is probably 100 
times worse than Nebraska experienced during the Callahan error.  I will 
be shocked if they win more than 3 games this year.   I think their 
biggest chances for a win are against Wyoming, Kansas State and Iowa 
State, and two of those are road games.  CU going 0-12 is not out of the 
realm of possibility.

Hawkins pretty much dug his own grave when he guaranteed a 10-win 
season.  No coach with any brains is going to make that comment.

So, anyone watching the PPV or Huskervision screens get a good replay  
view of just what happened to cause our unsportsman-like penalty in  
the first half?

Listening to radio feed and they offered little in the way of info.

If it was the one involving a player taking his helmet off I think I  
saw Bo "explaining to the umpire that his player got poked in the eye,  
perhaps not accidentally.

It was on Eric Martin. a couple Arkansas State players had him down. I couldn't see what happened, but I think he got poked in the eye, or some face injury in the pile, then took his helmet off.
GBR!

Subject: [Husker] A Fan's Perspective
Message-ID: <a06240800c6d2f3ab995f@[10.30.5.129]>

Although the 69-yard TD pass to Niles Paul was called back because of 
a holding penalty, the loss of the TD really didn't materially affect 
the outcome of the game, but it seemed to me that the team suffered a 
slight let-down in intensity afterward. If that did actually happen 
(and it's only my perception that it did), it may have been because 
the first three TD's and the called-back TD seemed so effortless that 
the younger players may have slacked off ever so slightly in 
anticipation of a romp.

It's hard for a spectator to know how good this team can be at the 
end of the season. During the Devaney/Osborne years, we were 
observing a familiar product known for its reliability. But now we're 
seeing a team rife with unknowns ... and a Head Coach telling us in 
no uncertain terms that he has certain reservations about attitude 
and execution, something we almost never heard in previous eras.

I believe this team has the potential to be competitive against VT 
but constantly feel the ground shifting under my feet even as I type 
these words. On the other hand, in 1996 I was completely convinced of 
the Huskers' invincibility, when we traveled to Tempe to watch them 
play ASU. That road trip ended in utter disaster.

Even so, I'm betting on this year's Huskers to the extent of gladly 
anteing up the TV fee to watch them give it a shot. I just hope it's 
their best shot.

The numbers really don't look that good, do they?? When considering that our opposition was Florida Atlantic and Arkansas State, the stats don't paint that great a picture and for sure one BP isn't going to be happy with, particularly on defense.? But we paid these two teams a lot of money to come to Lincoln and get beat and everyone did what they were supposed to do and the record is 2-0 and we are as ready as we can be for a game against a better team.?

Can't wait for Saturday.

I don't know about anyone else, but this game kind of feels like the 1997 game on the road at Washington.  Huskers ranked about #7 and Washington #2.  Huskers were kind of suspect after a couple of games against lower tier opponents, giving up a lot of yards against Central Florida and winning 38-24 the week before.  I remember that the team came of age under Scott Frost that day, winning 27-14 (wasn't really even that close on the field, just on the scoreboard).  With a couple of exceptions that team was really never challenged the remainder of the year (Missouri and Colorado were the only close games after that, much too close for my comfort!).  I get the feeling that we're on the brink of something that will set this program up to challenge nationally for several years to come.  No more feeling good just to be ranked in the top 25 but disappointed if we're not top 10 caliber or better.  Just my gut feeling.

Mr. Meyer in Murfressboro, let's hope you're right! :)

The game will be very telling, won't it?  I'm very excited for
Saturday's game, but then again I was nearly as excited until about one
quarter into the Mizzou game last year.  I honestly believe we have a
better team on the field this year so am eager to see how they perform
on Saturday.

GBR...

Does anyone know when they will release the coverage map for the regional games scheduled for 3:30 pm EST? The one's I found online were from two weeks ago.

 

Thanks!

I sure hope you're gut feeling is correct...

The game you mention was the last time that the Big Red won a road game
against a Top 20 opponent.

~~~
I'll be at Lane Stadium.  50% chance of rain.  Looking forward to the
excitement in Blacksburg.  Has anyone ever been to Va Tech for a game?

What's the pre-game atmosphere like... plenty of tailgating parking lots?

Friendly folks?  Or Colorado/Mizzou atmosphere?

Anyone else going?

~~~
My guess is that the key statistic will be Points off Turnovers.

Huskers --- 34
VaTech ---- 24

Go Big Red!!!

Good Morning All:

Regarding the Virginia Tech game, the game will be televised on ABC in HD. This is a regional game that should show up in the ACC and Big XII region primarily, other parts of the country though should receive the game via ESPN2 if their ABC affiliate does not air the game locally.

The ABC page does show that the NU/VT game will be a reverse mirror telecast.  If your local ABC affiliate is not broadcasting the game, it will be available on ESPN2.

Hello All:

It is becoming increasingly obvious to me that people do not take time to read the various posts (what few there are) to this list. 

Earlier this morning at 6:33 AM Central Time I posted the following statement:

"Regarding the Virginia Tech game, the game will be televised on ABC in HD. This is a regional game that should show up in the ACC and Big XII region primarily, other parts of the country though should receive the game via ESPN2 if their ABC affiliate does not air the game locally. 


Less than three hours later at 9:13 AM Central Time the following post was made:

"The ABC page does show that the NU/VT game will be a reverse mirror telecast.  If your local ABC affiliate is not broadcasting the game, it will be available on ESPN2."


I'm sorry folks but I get a little cranky when I post information and then someone else posts the same thing as though it had never been posted previously. List traffic here has slowed to a snails pace and I wouldn't think it would be that difficult to read the posts that come to the list and not repost the same thing, unless of course I have been added to someone's junk mail list in which case I guess they wouldn't have seen what I posted. 

Oh well -

Gary you are just noticing this now? This has been happening on this
list (and almost every other list I've seen) for years now. I wouldn't
take it personal- you're input is certainly appreciated by those of us
not 'in the know' about things like this.

There are a number of reasons why people post duplicate info, but again,
there's no need to take it personally!

Hi Gary,

I'm still on the List (I think!) but I didn't receive either of your 
two previous emails. Dunno why not.

Am very grateful for your clarification.

It looks like the Big 12 and the Big East are getting close to a deal
on a new bowl game, the Yankee Bowl, played in the new Yankee Stadium.

The game would match the Big 12's seventh place team with the Big East's
third or fourth place team.

Just to confuse things even further, the Nebraska Athletic Department just updated their Facebook page with the coverage map, and indicated that you'll need ESPN GamePlan to watch NU/VT in much of the country.

http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=2593784&id=26738651698

"Those in the light blue region will be able to watch the game on their local ABC 
affiliate; those in the green (scheduled to receive Iowa/Arizona on ABC) will be able to watch on ESPN2; and those in the 
yellow (scheduled to receive USC/Washington on ABC) can watch on ESPN Game Plan."

 
Now, did the athletic dpeartment get it wrong, or are the Big Ten/Pac Ten areas being fed Iowa/Arizona as their ESPN2 game?

Hello All:

It is becoming increasingly obvious to me that people do not take time to read the various posts (what few there are) to this list. 

Earlier this morning at 6:33 AM Central Time I posted the following statement:

"Regarding the Virginia Tech game, the game will be televised on ABC in HD. This is a regional game that should show up in the ACC and Big XII region primarily, other parts of the country though should receive the game via ESPN2 if their ABC affiliate does not air the game locally. 


Less than three hours later at 9:13 AM Central Time the following post was made:

"The ABC page does show that the NU/VT game will be a reverse mirror telecast.  If your local ABC affiliate is not broadcasting the game, it will be available on ESPN2."


I'm sorry folks but I get a little cranky when I post information and then someone else posts the same thing as though it had never been posted previously. List traffic here has slowed to a snails pace and I wouldn't think it would be that difficult to read the posts that come to the list and not repost the same thing, unless of course I have been added to someone's junk mail list in which case I guess they wouldn't have seen what I posted. 

Oh well -

I had heard that, and was just going to check it. That's disappointing  
to say the least.

That's two running backs gone.

Just to confuse things even further, the Nebraska Athletic Department just updated their Facebook page with the coverage map, and indicated that you'll need ESPN GamePlan to watch NU/VT in much of the country.

http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=2593784&id=26738651698

"Those in the light blue region will be able to watch the game on their local ABC
affiliate; those in the green (scheduled to receive Iowa/Arizona on ABC) will be able to watch on ESPN2; and those in the
yellow (scheduled to receive USC/Washington on ABC) can watch on ESPN Game Plan."


Now, did the athletic dpeartment get it wrong, or are the Big Ten/Pac Ten areas being fed Iowa/Arizona as their ESPN2 game?

Cool, unless I pony up for the Gameplan package I get to see USC &
Washington even though that game takes place 3 different time zones away
from me. AND, the ESPN2 game will be Arizona & Iowa, also about a 4 hour
plane flight away. There is ONE game Saturday involving 2 ranked teams
and of course it's not on here.

How are these things decided again? Unreal.

I can't say this is totally shocking.  He was pretty buried on the depth
chart (I think he should have tried LB/safety myself).

This is the order as it was explained to me:

1- Roy Helu
2- Rex Burkhead
3- Lester Ward
4- Austin Jones
3/4 - D. Robinson (Depending on who you ask, but it seems pretty clear he's
going to redshirt)

Oops, forgot Mendoza, probably put him in the 3/4 area too.

Bottom line, he was WAY down the chart and he is probably going to Stanford.

Another perspective: Okafor's departure frees up another scholarship 
for a worthy walk-on or next year's recruiting class which, as I 
understand it, will consist of only fifteen or so players.

His departure is disappointing in at least one respect: he's an 
in-state recruit.

But hey, the popcorn you make at home is waaay better if you can watch it on
your big screen tv comfy on the sofa! We get the college fb pkg every year
through Comcast and it comes out to maybe $5 a game if you only watch 2
games a week, so we do not feel it is that bad.

Greetings:

For those of you in Arizona (except the far northeast corner of the state), you should be able to receive the game via the reverse mirror on ESPN 2. So you should not have to buy the PPV on GamePlan or even leave your home to see the game, though attending the watch sites is kind of fun (I did it when I was in Mesa a few years back).

Message-ID: <FF39692C-C6CC-4962-8344-05CF29884635@mac.com>

Hi all,

I'll be traveling this Friday/Saturday on my way to Billings Montana  
from Sioux City.  I'd like to plan a stop on Saturday so that I can  
watch the game.  I'm thinking Sheridan, Wyoming...the coverage map  
that indicates that Montana will not get the NU/Va. Tech game, but it  
looks like Wyoming will.  Does anyone know if:

a)  the ABC affiliate that covers Sheridan (or Buffalo Wyoming, or  
somewhere along I-90 from the South Dakota border to Montana) that  
will indeed carry the game?  The coverage map shows a line right on  
the border, so I'm not sure.

b) is there a sports bar or lounge anyone can recommend to watch the  
game in Sheridan, or Buffalo?

Thanks,

Rod W.
Sioux City, Ia.

Huskerpedia has lists of watch sites for the country.  Can't vouch for
any of them, but the list for Arizona is at this link:

http://www.huskerpedia.com/watch/AZwatchsites.html

Prescott is not mentioned specifically, but there are several in the
Phoenix and Tuscon areas.  And Gary Fead just mentioned the status of
getting the game in Arizona.

Good luck.

A friend of mine is a VaTech grad and doesn't think that they have much
of an offense. His take is that it will either be a defensive game or
VaTech could get stomped. I am a little more subdued than that. It is
after all, Nebraska's first road game and they can be tricky.

Here's to hoping for a Nebraska win!

Go Big Red!

More Direct Tv (this is info I tried to extract/understand from a  Direct 
Tv rep) info:  It also looks like it might also be on ESNa (Channel  211) 
which is an alternate to ESPN2....  ESNa is new to me (just got a new  
reciever) so I'm not sure about it at this point....It will replay on ESPU Ch  614 
on Mon 2pm.

Pass to Holt in the back of the end zone should have been pass interference, VTech kid grabbed Holt's arm when he reached out for the Lee pass (which was thrown exactly where it had to be). Need those calls in a game like this.

well....  if you're going to call that, you're going to call things  
all game.

Hey, nice first half for Nebraska. I'll take that.

Not that I'm shy, or ever have been, but we have a game thread going  
here:

http://www.cornnation.com/2009/9/19/1037053/nebraska-cornhuskers-vs-virginia#comments

I think its' been a good first half. I know we want the Huskers to  
crush our opponents, but I think we all know this one is going to be a  
four quarter game. 3-4 points. that's it.

And we'll grow.

They used to do that at Iowa State.  If it's a football tradition in Ames, it's pretty lame.

I just feel deflated.  We DOMINATED VT for the second half until that play.
I can't help but feel totally discouraged.  Good play by the D overall, I
just can't believe that a Hail Mary type play beat NU on that one.

Sorry, but Damn.

I hear you, we really need the ball to bounce our way one of these days (Texas couple years back, VT and TT last year, plus others the last 20 years).

Lots and lots of games are won without scoring TDs, but it's tough to win when the only thought that should be going through your head is NOT to let anyone get behind you on a passing play when playing a 2 deep zone (or any zone for that matter). That blown coverage was huge and could not have come at a worse time. I wont mention names because I know people on here get their panties in a bunch because they feel these players read all these posts, but I guarantee the player who was suppised to be covering the guy running free down the sideline knew his responsibility on that play but blew it looking into the backfield at Taylor scrambling around. Don't take my word for it, watch the tape.

Bottom line, the whole team 'earned' the loss but allowing that garbage on a desparation heave is unacceptable.

Message-ID: <20090919.163716.11225.237401@mailpop04.vgs.untd.com>

While it was a hard lose, it is a good warm up for Nebraska's first
Big-XII road game (that happens to be the conference opener) against
Missouri.

It is always hard to judge a team until they play their first road game
in the non-conference play, then in conference play.

The officiating was okay, although I think that once the ball crosses the
plane during a run or catch, it should be a TD. I agree with the change
to the rule when receiving on the sideline. But now there are two
different rules regarding what constitutes a TD and the ball crossing the
plane doesn't necessarily matter for a catch.

The Huskers played well. They have a young offense and first time
starting QB. Zach Lee was a little off, probably due to this being such a
big road game. I believe the coaches will get things figured out and
Nebraska will be dominate player in conference play.

Nebraska really only had two bad plays, unfortunately both lead to TDs
for VT and book ended the game.

Heart breaking lose, but a great effort by the defense.

Go Big Red!

The problem was that it wasn't a desperation heave. TT created time with his feet then delivered a ball to a receiver w/no one within 20 yards. We had the exact same play earlier, ours was throw out of bounds and we are lucky Guilliyen (sp?) made the catch. Had it been thrown in bounds it would have been a TD or first and goal.

the lack of discipline on that read zone play when the line kept getting penalties for stupid crap. if the TD by mcneil have stuck, huskers go home with a win.

these huskers need to learn that you gotta play for 60 minutes. just like u don't panic when you're down by 7 in the first few minutes of the first quarter, you finish the game even if you are up 5 with less than 30 seconds to play.

That blown coverage was huge and could not have come at a worse time. I wont mention names because I know people on here get their panties in a bunch because they feel these players read all these posts, but I guarantee the player who was suppised to be covering the guy running free down the sideline knew his responsibility on that play but blew it looking into the backfield at Taylor scrambling around. Don't take my word for it, watch the tape.

I realize a lot of HuskerListers are disappointed and upset by the 
squeaker lost to Virginia Tech, but my take is a little different.

I'm proud of this team.

Every early-season game is also a practice, and this one was real 
test for the Huskers who played with passion and pride. In my book 
they passed the test with flying colors, and this tough loss will 
provide them with incentives 'way beyond what a narrow victory might 
have done.

This year's team - - like last year's squad - - is very much a work 
in progress, and now the coaches and players alike realize what needs 
to repaired, what needs to be revamped, and what they must to be 
competitive in Columbia and beyond.

I wrote earlier that I did/do not believe this is "our" year and that 
next year will be our breakout year, even without Suh. We are not 
only heading in the right direction but accelerating.

I can't disagree with you Steve, but it certainly is disappointing
nonetheless.  The Huskers did play well, especially on D and OK on O.
Having said that, I feel as good about the Huskers in a loss as I did in
wins over Arkie St and FAU.  In the earlier games, NU kept the score down,
but didn't shut down the opponents.  In this game, the D did a great job
shutting down the VT O but didn't keep them off the scoreboard.  The basics
are there, we just didn't finish.  We need to learn and dominate the North
plus TT and Baylor.  Kansas is looking solid so far, however and we will
have a similar challenge in Lawrence.

I'm calming down, but slowly.

Not only is he a bad coach... there's gotta be something wrong with Hawkins
for him to leave his own son in during garbage time, and let him take a
helmet-to-helmet hit and probably sustain a concussion. Oh, but Cody scored
on the play, so Hawk is satisfied.

I always root for fellow Westside alums, but Okafor's possible departure
doesn't worry me much. If Ward is as solid as we're hearing, and if Robinson
develops, we should be OK barring a rash of injuries (always a possibility).
It certainly does put a premium on getting a back in this recruiting cycle.

The worst part is that the game should have already been out of reach. Right
before the play I had this exact thought: "we sure made this one close, but
at least only a miracle can save them now." At least we looked solid and
this wasn't a Big XII game.

I wasn't able to watch the game,  but listened to it on XM radio as I was driving East.

Comments about the broadcast (ACC crew).  
1.  Huskers broadcast is WAY better.  Never knew what was happening in the game.
2.  The key shaking was for "key 3rd downs"
3.  Although the crew were homers for VaT, they slobbered all over Suh.  Thought he was unbelievable and definitely a top 5 pick in the draft.

About the game.
First some positives.
1. Suh was fantastic
2. LBs were great
3. Incredible performance by the D overall.
4. Helo is much better than I have given him credit for. 

Now for the negatives
1.  Lee had a bad game.  Hope he can shake that off, or he will be replaced by Green...sooner, rather than later.
2.  What happened on the opening kickoff?  Glad that didn't happen again.
3.  Penalties were untimely and uncalled for.
4.  6 drives in (or near) the red zone with only 15 points to show for it.
5.  Sounded like (but with the poor announcers, hard to tell for sure) like the DB were getting torched all night, but Taylor just couldn't hit them...until the last drive.
6.  Too many dropped passes.

Some of the above can be attributed to poor game coaching.  If Lee was having a bad day, they should have tried some other things..e.g. a reverse...to take the heat off of Helu.  It also sounded like there were too many attempts to hit the TE's over the middle.  Since I couldn't see the game, I don't know if that is really true.

Still, I'm happy that the Huskers played as well as they did.  Hope that they get over it quickly and go on to crush the next two opponents.  I'd love to hang 60 on MU.

5.  Sounded like (but with the poor announcers, hard to tell for sure) like the DB were getting torched all night, but Taylor just couldn't hit them...until the last drive.
6.  Too many dropped passes.

Some of the above can be attributed to poor game coaching.  If Lee was having a bad day, they should have tried some other things..e.g. a reverse...to take the heat off of Helu.  It also sounded like there were too many attempts to hit the TE's over the middle.  Since I couldn't see the game, I don't know if that is really true.

Still, I'm happy that the Huskers played as well as they did.  Hope that they get over it quickly and go on to crush the next two opponents.  I'd love to hang 60 on MU.

My impression was that the secondary played an excellent game overall. There
were many instances where Taylor either threw the ball away or took a sack
because absolutely nobody was open. Their TE Greg Boone is a big, fast dude,
but they couldn't even find him until the fourth quarter.

O'Hanlon is a solid player, and I love him, but he isn't consistent enough
back there, and unfortunately he will probably become known mainly for that
play. I couldn't help but look on the other side and wish for a Kam
Chancellor of our own. The Huskers need to get that caliber of player in the
secondary before the defense can become truly dominant.

Imagine my surprise when I looked down to sign my credit card receipt at the local sports bar and then looked up to see VT player sprinting to the end zone.  My first thought was they were showing a replay from a past game or something, surely the defense couldn't have let someone get by them.  My second thought was ?$%^&**&^^% (actually I think that was more than a thought, probably vocalized my feelings a little).  I really thought for a second they might still hold them out of the end zone but alas, not to be.  Blackshirts pretty well dominated for 59 minutes but didn't put it away when the offense couldn't hold the ball at the end. 

I think Bo takes a look at this game and the blackshirts come out for practice this week.  They certainly impressed me.  And another question.  How many times have you ever seen a team punt after having first and goal.  Very weird sequence.

Well now that I've gotten over my ridiculous temper tantrum from this game, I realize that we all make mistakes, and there were quite a few of them today, not just the blown coverage in the end. However, there were also a lot of great plays, even by the secondary, so I will focus on the positives, and hope that the team does too. Life goes on...

Lots and lots of games are won without scoring TDs, but it's tough to win when the only thought that should be going through your head is NOT to let anyone get behind you on a passing play when playing a 2 deep zone (or any zone for that matter). That blown coverage was huge and could not have come at a worse time. I wont mention names because I know people on here get their panties in a bunch because they feel these players read all these posts, but I guarantee the player who was suppised to be covering the guy running free down the sideline knew his responsibility on that play but blew it looking into the backfield at Taylor scrambling around. Don't take my word for it, watch the tape.

Bottom line, the whole team 'earned' the loss but allowing that garbage on a desparation heave is unacceptable.

As I watched the second half (via DVR and knowing the outcome) I had the 
unshakable feeling that I'd already seen this game. It came to me at the 
end: the '94 Orange Bowl, another game the Huskers won everywhere but 
the scoreboard. If this Nebraska team is anywhere near as tough-minded 
as that bunch, the future is indeed bright.

This was not a game NU needed to win (but it sure would have been nice 
to do so). All the team's goals are intact. They now need to take out 
their frustrations on La Lafayette and then kick the snot out of Mizzou. 
We are on the right track. Keep the faith.

And how in the world could the replay officials not review Holt's (non) 
catch in the end zone? Aaarrrgh!!!

I was definitely disappointed in the final score, but quite pleased 
with the overall play of the Cornhusker team.  They certainly made 
some mistakes, but were competitive--even in control--for much of 
the game.  Steve and Dick summed up well, in my opinion.

My question has to do with some of the Virginia Tech passing plays, 
especially the last two.  There was some initial pressure on Taylor 
that he evaded.  As he continued to look for an open receiver, he 
was relatively stationary.  Two or three Nebraska rushers would come 
open and have a relatively clear run at him, but they seemed to hang 
back and not go after him.

I understand that Taylor's moves often allow him to dodge bull 
rushes and some caution is needed to contain him, but the rushers 
seemed almost frozen in place.  At that point couldn't more movement 
toward Taylor have been used to get some pressure on him?  Maybe the 
defenders were tired?

Anyway, would be interested in thoughts on this matter from those 
who have more football knowledge than I.

Agreed.  My sense is that they want Taylor to beat us with his arm not with his legs.  At that point in the game it was probably a good strategy.

Also twice in the second half rather than going for a long FG we chose to punt and pin them deep.  I'm willing to bet Henery would have made at least one of those FGs.  Still both decisions seemed correct at the time.

Yea, it's funny that the officials would review two of VT plays at the 
end of the game.  And the touchdown was pretty cut and dried.  Is the 
replay official part of the big 12 as well?

I, too, had the same question about the review - and can't believe this hasn't gotten more play on the list.

I couldn't hear the game call that well at the bar - anyone have any insight? I thought the whole purpose of review was for that situation, which was clearly a touchdown. I've had three VT fans call or email me to say?they thought it was a TD.

And another topic - I'm surprised at the "gee golly whiz that sure was a good effort" attitude. We wouldn't have seen that on the list ten years ago after a loss like this. I'm all for "accentuate the positive" - but I think there are a lot of takeaways to discuss: inability to get in the endzone, secondary breakdowns, playcalling on the last drive (offensive), etc.

Just so I'm not accused of being a pessimist, here is other food for thought: Helu's dominance, the best PK in the country, defensive containment (for 58 minutes).

I know that's a lot to ingest, but I wanted to get some topics out there for discussion this week...

The non-review is pretty cut and dry imo, the receiver must maintain control thru the course of the out of bounds movement. If the ball doesn't come out, TD. 

What really killed me was the hope the defense gave me on the first two plays after the 81 yarder. Had they just scored on that play or the next it would have meshed into one, but to drive them back to the 11 and then the imcomplete gave me hope to say maybe this will work out. In hindsight Suh should have taken the personal foul penalty for the horsecollar tackle for just ripping him to the ground. 

Helu was great, 169 yards, plus picking up most of his blocking assignments. I would have liked to see our TEs more involved (yes some missed passes) and we need some routes that allows Paul to gain seperation. But in general I think receivers need to step up and make a play; take some of the pressure off of Lee. If the ball has to be a perfect pass for them to catch it, it is going to be a long season.  Lee is going to begin to over-focus on the receiver and telegraph throws. 

That one quick slant on 3rd down (don't remember to who) was great. 3 step drop then pass, no time to over think just timing and faith, but then I didn't see it the rest of the game. 

I've rambled long enough, I'm very disappointed with this loss, but at the end of the day I am not embarrassed by the overall play on the field like I was in years past. Hindsight yes go for it at 4th and 1, but considering the defensive play it never occurred to me that they would have given up that 81 yarder, maybe a series of short passes on a prevent defense as time winds down, but not one big play like that. 

Heartbroken, yes; but still excited about the rest of the season.

I, too, had the same question about the review - and can't believe this hasn't gotten more play on the list.

I couldn't hear the game call that well at the bar - anyone have any insight? I thought the whole purpose of review was for that situation, which was clearly a touchdown. I've had three VT fans call or email me to say?they thought it was a TD.

And another topic - I'm surprised at the "gee golly whiz that sure was a good effort" attitude. We wouldn't have seen that on the list ten years ago after a loss like this. I'm all for "accentuate the positive" - but I think there are a lot of takeaways to discuss: inability to get in the endzone, secondary breakdowns, playcalling on the last drive (offensive), etc.

Just so I'm not accused of being a pessimist, here is other food for thought: Helu's dominance, the best PK in the country, defensive containment (for 58 minutes).

I know that's a lot to ingest, but I wanted to get some topics out there for discussion this week...

"When a player catches a foward pass in the opponent's end zone."

So you have to go the definition of what is a catch which is Article 7A.? One of the stipulations of a catch is:

"Loss of ball simultaneous to returning to the ground is not a catch, interception, or recovery."

I had always thought that once the receiver had possesion and a foot down in the end zonce, that a touchdown had occurred and the play was over and whatever happened after that was irrelevant.?

It used to be that *was* the rule, if I'm remembering correctly. At some
point in the past few years, they made that change (in the pros, too). I
don't have a problem with the rule as long as they call it consistently,
which I think they do.

I"ll say the rule is appropriate at stands.  The same standards that determine pass completion should apply to the endzone as well as the rest of the field.

The "logic" of the polls is once again on display as the Huskers slip 
to 24th in the coaches' poll and 25th in the AP, yet Virginia Tech 
moves up a notch from 13th to 12th.

Not that it matters much at this time of year (or any time of the 
year, for that matter), but it illustrates how the subjectivity of 
these polls.

I stand by my assertion that this loss will provide a powerful 
incentive for this Husker team for the balance of the season much 
like the overtime loss to Texas Tech did last year. This team has 
character and doesn't know the meaning of quit.

Playcalling on the last drive? Last drive?

How 'bout having Lee throw the ball so damned much when it was clear  
he was struggling. How 'bout not having Helu and Burkhead run the ball  
more often when it was clear it was being successful.

Until almost the end of the game, I would have disagreed with Mike, 
but when Bo threw his headphones into the crowd I had to admit he's 
still an apprentice coach - - an admittedly  gifted apprentice who 
has made giant strides toward coaching maturity since September of 
2008.

I'm looking forward to watching the team and the coaches "ripening" 
during this season - - and hoping they'll make it sometime early next 
season.

While the game overall was overly conservative, I think running Helu between the tackles into a stacked box on 1st and 10 on the last drive (not the <20 seconds plays) was a waste of a down and really put us behind the markers. I understand how quick they were side to side but such a fast play allowed them to make quick stop and call time out with only a few seconds coming off the clock. A pitch or option could have taken a couple more seconds off the clock, plus really could have resulted in a big play. 

It was as if we were still taking into account Macho, even though he is no longer on the field. I personally would have liked to see some more screen/shovel passes as well as some quick/timing slants in the direction of the blitz.

Just to echo the "Pride" theme ...

I just got back from Blacksburg - was able to attend as a guest of a friend
who's a VT alum.  Lane Stadium is very much like Memorial Stadium in that
respect -- very accommodating to the visitors -- although I don't get into
booing when the opponent comes out like they do. It is also very loud, just
like Memorial.

What I noticed the most about yesterday is that, despite the noise, our guys
played with a lot of confidence and poise.  The first series was shaky, and
the last series was desperate (obviously), but in between, they only had two
(?) false start penalties - not optimal, but still, not too bad for the
third game of the year.  The defense let the first touchdown in after the
long kickoff return, then buckled down and played well until *almost* the
very end ... 8^)

Also, Zac Lee is really good at managing the play clock. He sometimes called
for the snap immediately, but more often, he'd come to the line with 11-12
seconds left, call out adjustments, then get the snap with under 3 seconds
left. It seemed to keep the defense out of rhythm, and it contributed to the
final total of 0 sacks by VT.

I'm not sure how much of the poor offensive showing by VT was due to our
defense, and how much was due to a bad performance by Tyrod Taylor, at least
until the end of the 4th quarter.  The VT fans stated that the VT QB coach
and offensive coordinator were trying to change Taylor's role from a mobile
QB to a drop-back passer, to increase his draft value.  The transformation
is not yet complete - I could tell that there were times Taylor wanted to
scramble, but he backed up and tossed the ball instead.  (They also don't
have a quality backup, again per the VT fans, so the coaches may have been
trying to keep Taylor healthy.)

Agree with all the posters who said this game will help a lot more than the
loss hurts.  There are things to work on, both offensively and defensively,
but if this is how Bo's teams will react in a hostile situation against a
ranked opponent, the future looks very bright indeed.

This was one of those games that reminded me of some of the contests that we played with Oklahoma in the 70's.  The Husker's mustered a solid effort for 90% of the game.  They really took themselves out of putting the game away when we had first and goal...ready to go up by nine when the holding call and then the false start penalties, etc.  Then the collective Husker nation held their breath and just like a scramble out of the pocket desperation pass to Keith Jackson that OU used to do.... Taylor heaved the ball with all his guts...and my spleen was pulled outh through my nose.

This was not a moral victory...more appropriately an im-moral victory in the Flutie-esk hail Mary nature of the finish.

Next week....another win at home... then Mizzou...then the rest of a schdeule that may turn out very favorably for this team.  This would have been one of those games that we would have pointed to when referencing "the return" to prominence of the mighty Huskers....


I'll be watching.  Spleen or not...

I couldn't agree with you more, Steve. 
?
I would add that this year, players like Helu, Prince, and Suh will continue to "stand out" mostly because their extraordinary efforts are driving the Huskers forward in spite of first year quarterbacks, etc. Henery was terrific. 5 field goals. Excellent job there too. 
?
Good game over all. Tough, tough loss. We should have won that game, it was ours for the taking and we couldn't get it over the goal line! I'm sure Watson and Pelini will be working on that, as well as the?blown coverage! 
?
It's also a shame we started the game in the hole - why did Pelini let the Huskers line up for a standard kick off to start the game? Why weren't they kicking to the corners from the very beginning?

I realize a lot of HuskerListers are disappointed and upset by the squeaker lost to Virginia Tech, but my take is a little different.

I'm proud of this team.

Every early-season game is also a practice, and this one was real test for the Huskers who played with passion and pride. In my book they passed the test with flying colors, and this tough loss will provide them with incentives 'way beyond what a narrow victory might have done.

This year's team - - like last year's squad - - is very much a work in progress, and now the coaches and players alike realize what needs to repaired, what needs to be revamped, and what they must to be competitive in Columbia and beyond.

I wrote earlier that I did/do not believe this is "our" year and that next year will be our breakout year, even without Suh. We are not only heading in the right direction but accelerating.

First let me start off by saying that if you blame one player for this game,
you missed what really happened Saturday.  There were at least 5 really bad

Fast forward to today and I heard someone tell this story on the radio
(sorry, not a word for word quote):

"I travelled over 1,000 miles to go to the game against Va Tech.  I had
pumped this game up in my mind so much and I was destroyed when we let that
receiver get behind us that late in the game.  I couldn't stop thinking,
'How could this happen?'.  On my way out, I decided to wait for the players
getting on the bus to see how they would react.  When I saw Matt come out of
the locker room, he walked straight over to his wife and hugged her and
started crying because he felt terrible.  After that I remembered how much
heart and effort these kids pour into the program."

I was very upset as well with the game and to me it was one of the most
disappointing losses I've seen.  It pays to remember that these are 18-22
year old kids who are doing nothing but pouring their heart into the program
and however I feel after a game like this, most of the time they feel worse.

Skylar, I can't disagree.  If we as fans think the loss was horrible,
how do we think the players feel?  But it wasn't that play that did us
in.  It didn't help, but if we had scored a touchdown when we had the
ball with a first down and goal on the six (arguably we did twice on
that same series), that play would have hurt, but it wouldn't have
meant the game.  The closest VaTech could have come was a tie,
including a 2 pt conversion.  And remember, five field goals is great,
but that means no touchdowns in or near the red zone 5 times.  So many
things happened before and after that play, you can't blame any one
player for the loss.

What I'm really curious about is how those folks feel today who
thought it would be 1) a blow out by VaTech, and/or 2) a close loss to
VaTech.  That seemed to be a majority opinion, though a sizable number
of fans thought it would be a close win by the Huskers.  I'm just
wondering if the folks who thought we would lose a close one are
relatively satisfied that we lost a close one.  Or is it more the
manner in which we lost it?  Just curious.

On the bright side, against Virginia Tech, the Huskers have improved
from "could've won" last year to "should've won" this year.

On the down-side, this game makes it unlikely that NU will play in
the BCS Championship Game, which was a faint hope this year for the
first time in several years.  However, the two most important goals
for this team still are within reach: a Big 12 North championship
with a berth in the Big 12 Championship game and a quality bowl
victory.  If this team can win the North, be competitive in the
conference championship game, and win its bowl game, the Virginia
Tech loss will be just another game NU "should've won".

Matt Millen explained this fairly well... the receiver must maintain control through the entire process of the play and the play isn't over when his foot/knee touches the ground.  the play remains "live" until the player's body is more or less "in control".   Control must be maintained through the act of falling and coming to a rest. 

This makes some sense, since there really should be no doubt that a catch has been made.  Giving the ball up a half a second after a knee comes down probably should not qualify as a catch.

Believe me I don't like the implication of this anymore than any of you.  But imagine how you'd see the play if the receiver was wearing a different color jersey.

That's where I was, given the setting and NU's relative inexperience at 
some critical positions. Thus I was quite pleased that the Huskers 
played well enough to win, and indeed should have won. The outcome was 
obviously a big disappointment, but the guys will grow from this and 
come back better. I'm really looking forward to Mizzou; that game will 
tell us a lot.

First let me start off by saying that if you blame one player for this game,

There's nothing positive about *losing* the game. There are plenty of
positives to take from the way the team *played* in a loss.

Also, thanks for that story. It helps put things in perspective.

I've got to quibble with David here.  Losing is never good. but you
can take positive lessons from the game.  If this team cannot learn
from this loss and get positive messages from it, there is no hope for
them, and they will continue to lose games because they can't finish
off an opponent (gee, doesn't that sound a lot like 2007!!).

But based on Pelini's words, but mostly his tone, after the game tells
me that he isn't going to let them get nothing positive out of this
game.  They're gonna get an earful at the film session.  They're gonna
get an earful at the first practice, and you can bet they're gonna get
an earful just before the next game.

Good gracious, who among us really and truly thought that Helu would
have nearly 200 yards rushing against this team?  Who among us thought
we'd control Taylor's feet so completely, limiting him to no run
longer than 4 yards?  Who among us thought Taylor could throw the ball
as well as he did, and what should that tell us about our expectations
going into a game?  There's lots of positives to take away from this.
Yeah, we shoulda won, but it wasn't a total bust.

If nothing else, we can learn not to lose again.  That'd be positive,
wouldn't it?

There's nothing positive about losing the game. There are plenty of positives to 
take from the way the team played in a loss.

Also, thanks for that story. It helps put things in perspective.

First let me start off by saying that if you blame one player for this game,
you missed what really happened Saturday.? There were at least 5 really bad
mental errors that all could have made Matt O'Hanlon's blunder irrelevant.

Fast forward to today and I heard someone tell this story on the radio
(sorry, not a word for word quote):

"I travelled over 1,000 miles to go to the game against Va Tech.? I had
pumped this game up in my mind so much and I was destroyed when we let that
receiver get behind us that late in the game.? I couldn't stop thinking,
'How could this happen?'.? On my way out, I decided to wait for the players
getting on the bus to see how they would react.? When I saw Matt come out of
the locker room, he walked straight over to his wife and hugged her and
started crying because he felt terrible.? After that I remembered how much
heart and effort these kids pour into the program."

I was very upset as well with the game and to me it was one of the most
disappointing losses I've seen.? It pays to remember that these are 18-22
year old kids who are doing nothing but pouring their heart into the program
and however I feel after a game like this, most of the time they feel worse...

People have to remember as well that Pelini and anyone else associated with the program is not going to say this was a devastating loss and harp on it, even though I will bet most if not all the coaches really do think it was devastating. To lose a game in the last minute, regardless of what could/should/would have been done earlier is devastating, PERIOD.

Admitting it publicly will only undermine what the coaches are trying to accomplish.

I've got to quibble with David here.? Losing is never good. but you
can take positive lessons from the game.? If this team cannot learn
from this loss and get positive messages from it, there is no hope for
them, and they will continue to lose games because they can't finish
off an opponent (gee, doesn't that sound a lot like 2007!!).

But based on Pelini's words, but mostly his tone, after the game tells
me that he isn't going to let them get nothing positive out of this
game.? They're gonna get an earful at the film session.? They're gonna
get an earful at the first practice, and you can bet they're gonna get
an earful just before the next game.

Good gracious, who among us really and truly thought that Helu would
have nearly 200 yards rushing against this team?? Who among us thought
we'd control Taylor's feet so completely, limiting him to no run
longer than 4 yards?? Who among us thought Taylor could throw the ball
as well as he did, and what should that tell us about our expectations
going into a game?? There's lots of positives to take away from this.
Yeah, we shoulda won, but it wasn't a total bust.

If nothing else, we can learn not to lose again.? That'd be positive,
wouldn't it?

Message-ID: <20090921.120620.24586.0@webmail04.vgs.untd.com>

I don't know how someone can fault a single player when the game is played for 60 minutes. As I posted previously, there was really only 1 'bad' play by the defense all game.
 
This game reminded me a lot of the 1996 ASU game that Nebraska lost 0-19. It was Jake Plummer's senior year and Nebraska was starting a new QB. Jake Plummer was able to scramble for time, and when was able to exploit the fact the secondary was moving to cover the run.
 
Let's be honest here, Tyrod Taylor is a talented athlete that made a great play. And let's not forget that VaTech is the two time reigning ACC champion.
 
While the loss was hard to take, the team should be better for it. And I firmly believe that a big road game is exactly what Nebraska needs to prepare for Missouri game. Here's to hoping there is no let down this Saturday and then it off to conference play.
 
Go Big Red!

Rob I have to respectfully disagree with this statement- in my opinion,
Taylor made a play that anyone who could scramble around a little and
then throw a ball about 50 yards to a wide open receiver could have
made. In fact, the ball was almost overthrown, as you can see the
receiver had to stretch a bit for it and he actually made a great play.
And as someone previously mentioned, the pass rush was more of a
'containment' on that particular play, although for the life of me I
can't figure out why they did not all-out blitz Taylor, especially since
he does not seem to want to run the ball anymore.

You are right that one player should not be blamed for a loss, but I
believe that play was a result of a gross mental lapse, not a great QB
play.

But, $&%# happens.

Message-ID: <95130.14952.qm@web36902.mail.mud.yahoo.com>

I took away three points of worry from watching the game on Saturday.

1) VaTech's Defense shut down Helu easily on those outside option type runs. He could not turn the corner because there he'd run into a pack of Hokies waiting for him.

2) VaTech's O-Line provided great protection for Tyrod, giving him the time he needed to throw some bad passes. Were he a better passer, this game may not have been close.

3) No TD's by the offense. FGs are great, but once you kick so many, they may actually mentally wear down the confidence within the offense.

Joe, completely disagree about 1 and 2.

Helu turned the corner a lot.  In fact, we didn't start getting any serious
yards until we stopped running right up the middle.  

2nd, we sacked Taylor quite a few times and Suh pushed his man back in
Taylor's face quite a few times (ended up batting down FOUR passes).

1 and 2 are the exact opposite of what actually happened.

I will agree somewhat that a better QB would have hit those throws, but a
less mobile better thrower wouldn't have bought time like he was able to on
a couple of those.

It caused the score to shift which resulted in our loss --- BUT, allowing the runback on the initial kickoff, not getting into the endzone and settling for 5 field goals, not getting a first down to keep the ball out of VT's hands at the end of the game, they all contributed to our loss --- and many included mental errors ------- including ones by the coaches!

Lynette I don't really think arguing about this play is productive at this point, but I have some familiarity with defensive schemes and on that particular play the safety is supposed to cover the deep ball once the cornerback lets the wide receiver go and not get caught staring into the backfield thinking he may have to come up for run support, and in my opinion that is what happened. When a defense knows the game has come down to a point where the offense needs a huge play players have to absolutely sure of their responsibilities or what happened Saturday can happen- the safety in that situation is above ALL else not to let anyone get behind him, and I am almost willing to bet the coaching staff was screaming that on the sidelines (or should have been). Looking at the tape it does not appear he slipped or had any sort of physical issue on the play so that is why I would call it a gross mental lapse. 

Of course I have absolutely no idea what the player was thinking, but I do know what his responsibility was on that play. We will all never know for sure, but I am fairly confident the coaching staff will address (or has already addressed) the responsibilities for that scenario and that the player knows what he did wrong on the play. I am over it, and hopefully he is too as he is too valuable a player this year to let this bother him into the remainder of the season.

And you are right, there were many mistakes made in the game including those by the coaching staff, but my response was regarding the mistake made on the long pass play. Unfortunately, this particular mistake was the last one of the game and therefore most obvious.

The sun came up Sunday however.

I too have to disagree as well.  I remember getting physically sick over the ASU game in '96.  
This one felt bad, but not quite like that.

That said, perhaps to stir the pot a bit more, at the time, I was thinking we should punt on 4th and 1 during our last possession, but now I'm thinking that we should have gone for it - QB sneak/Helu counter?  Hindsight being 20-20, it now seems like less of a roll of the dice than what actually happened.

I thought about this a lot as well, that perhaps a shorter field would have made it slightly easier to defend Taylor if the Huskers failed to convert the 4th down, but then again VT would have only needed to get about 25 yards or so to be in FG range.

20/20.

I too have to disagree as well.  I remember getting physically sick over the ASU game in '96.  
This one felt bad, but not quite like that.

That said, perhaps to stir the pot a bit more, at the time, I was thinking we should punt on 4th and 1 during our last possession, but now I'm thinking that we should have gone for it - QB sneak/Helu counter?  Hindsight being 20-20, it now seems like less of a roll of the dice than what actually happened.

I'm sorry, I just don't think a mental error or miscue on one play caused us to lose the game. It caused the score to shift which resulted in our loss --- BUT, allowing the runback on the initial kickoff, not getting into the endzone and settling for 5 field goals, not getting a first down to keep the ball out of VT's hands at the end of the game, they all contributed to our loss --- and many included mental errors ------- including ones by the coaches!

This was a bad weekend - Tony Romo threw 3 interceptions and Dallas lost by
2 points. Zac Lee threw 2 interceptions and UNL lost by 1 point. Romo is a
pro and we know what he can do. Lee is still a student and unknown. However,
Lee's statistics were very poor and reminiscent of QB's in the 1950's when
we were at UNL. His showing at VT may be what most college scouts expected
and why he was not heavily recruited. Let's hope he improves or we will lose
many more games. Also, UNL played not to lose when near the end zone.

I took away three points of worry from watching the game on Saturday.

1) VaTech's Defense shut down Helu easily on those outside option type runs.
He could not turn the corner because there he'd run into a pack of Hokies
waiting for him.

2) VaTech's O-Line provided great protection for Tyrod, giving him the time
he needed to throw some bad passes. Were he a better passer, this game may
not have been close.

3) No TD's by the offense. FGs are great, but once you kick so many, they
may actually mentally wear down the confidence within the offense.

NU was in cover 2 on that play, meaning safeties play deep and split
the field in halves. If your opponent send two deep receivers, Cover 2
should work, on paper. Cover 2 also assumes you get a QB pressure or
sack before the receiver routes all develop deep. On that play, NU was
"containing" Taylor more than rushing him, so the receivers had the
time to exploit the structural holes in our deep coverage.

Problem is, once Taylor started scrambling, all 4 of VTs receivers
went deep. No way O'Hanlon could cover them all, or even his half.
There was a deep threat down the middle too, and O'Hanlon was stuck,
knowing whichever one he covered, the other was going to go free. NU
should have been asking the CB's to take the WR's deep along the
sidelines, not curling in to cover the short routes.

I give O'Hanlon tremendous credit for preventing a touchdown. There
was little else he could have done .. he was not put in a position to
succeed.

Except they were down by 5, so its unlikely VaTech would have even
thought about going for 3 on that drive.

But I too support Scott's position on this way back up in this thread.
 In that situation, the safety's only concern is to not let anyone get
behind him.  But he was caught peeking inside in case Taylor started
upfield.  I haven't seen the play since the replays, but I don't
remember any other wideouts heading down field as Mark suggests here.
(Mark, I'll fire up the old DVR tonight and take a peek.)  I do
remember watching O'Hanlon peeking inside while the VaTech receiver
ran past him down the sideline.

The defensive line had Taylor in contain all afternoon, and on that
play Taylor wasn't going to get many yards if he ran, and I think we
would have preferred that.  But its a real hard situation to be in
(and having a ball go over my head in a JV game many, many moons ago,
I speak from experience).  That is a big mental error, and I'd bet the
farm he knew almost the second he saw Taylor throw it.  And even if
there were other receivers out on that play deep as Mark suggests, his
responsibility doesn't change - no one deep uncovered.  And in cover
two, the other safety is supposed to be back there too.  The corners
release and look for anyone coming off the line or out of the
backfield (e.g., tight ends, backs, and the QB).

But all in all, that one play doesn't make the safety responsible for
the game, or a bad person, or unsuitable as a Blackshirt.  It does
mean he made a mental error.

There are others saying that his bigger mistake was making the tackle
- that if they had scored on that play, we'd have the ball back with
over a minute to go (but with no time outs).  While that is true, I
can't see many players being able to analyze the play at the time its
happening and decide to make an attempt but purposely fail.  As a
player, his only thought was - I goofed up, I gotta get that guy and
get him down.  That's what a young college player would think,
regardless of what others with the benefit of time and distance think.

I saw the point made, and it makes sense, that O'Hanlon should have allowed
the touchdown, giving the Huskers more than a minute left on the clock with
the best PK in the country on their sideline.

So we could all complain that O'Hanlon didn't stop the touchdown?

Then we'd be beating on him even more!

Just drop that one. That's just darned silly.

Agreed, no coach would ever think letting the guy score to get the ball back in time is a good plan.

David is entitled to his opinions, of course, but blanket categorical 
statements almost always fail to make a case.

Nobody likes to lose  that's a given. But the fact remains that

I cannot say for sure what defense the team was in but now that I am home and watching the play again on tape, there was actually NOT another deep threat down the middle- TE Greg Boone (#8) is the only player you could be referring to and he was being covered by one of the linebackers on the play, although it's debatable how well he was covered (at 285 plus pounds I like the LB's chances there)

Additionally, Taylor did not scramble at all, in fact he dropped almost straight back, threw a pump fake that got someone (Suh maybe?) in the air and then saw the open receiver down the sideline and launched it just before getting hit.

NU was in cover 2 on that play, meaning safeties play deep and split
the field in halves. If your opponent send two deep receivers, Cover 2
should work, on paper. Cover 2 also assumes you get a QB pressure or
sack before the receiver routes all develop deep. On that play, NU was
"containing" Taylor more than rushing him, so the receivers had the
time to exploit the structural holes in our deep coverage.

Problem is, once Taylor started scrambling, all 4 of VTs receivers
went deep. No way O'Hanlon could cover them all, or even his half.
There was a deep threat down the middle too, and O'Hanlon was stuck,
knowing whichever one he covered, the other was going to go free. NU
should have been asking the CB's to take the WR's deep along the
sidelines, not curling in to cover the short routes.

I give O'Hanlon tremendous credit for preventing a touchdown. There
was little else he could have done .. he was not put in a position to
succeed.

When a defense knows the game has come down to a point where the offense needs a huge play players have to absolutely sure of their responsibilities or what happened Saturday can happen- the safety in that situation is above ALL else not to let anyone get behind him, and I am almost willing to bet the coaching staff was screaming that on the sidelines (or should have been).

It caused the score to shift which resulted in our loss --- BUT, allowing the runback on the initial kickoff, not getting into the endzone and settling for 5 field goals, not getting a first down to keep the ball out of VT's hands at the end of the game, they all contributed to our loss --- and many included mental errors ------- including ones by the coaches!

A still on this blog
(http://huskermike.blogspot.com/2009/09/nuvirginia-tech-let-knawing-begin.html)
shows pretty clearly O'Hanlon'd pickle. The TE had already beaten
Thorell down the middle, and West was sitting about 15 yds off the LOS
and was about that far away from any VaTech player. The deep WR on the
far side looks covered, as was the far receiver in the flat. That left
O'Hanlon to play Russian Roulette. Taylor had already broken towards
Boone, so O'Hanlon rolled that way assuming he was the bigger threat.
Taylor suddenly reversed field and found Coale and ... well, you know.

I really thought Va Tech would blow out the Huskers, although I was hoping the Huskers would be competitive.  That was before the game.  Afterwords, I was extremely disappointed.    This team has a defense that is better than I thought.  This team has a RB who is better than I though.  This team has a QB that reminds me of Mike Grant, although in a different system.

Just my opinion.

http://www.omaha.com/article/20090921/NEWS/909219978

The injury is on the thumb of his on his non-throwing hand.

Steve, I totally agree with you.  I flew from MN for the ASU game.  That game was a total disaster.  We were shutout 19-0, fumbled, caught for safetys and on and on.

Dang, you freaked me out with that subject line. Doesn't sound too awful,
and hopefully it isn't. As long as he's healthy for Mizzou, it can only help
to get Green some reps with the ones.

I agree this is good.  Hopefully it will get him to the point where he
is able to run more plays (I heard he only has a couple of dozen that he
is comfortable enough with to run in a game situation where as Zac is in
the triple digits). If Zac goes down this could be a big disadvantage.

My wife Pam and I just returned from NE where we attended the AK State game.
It was her first game at Lincoln and my first since I graduated in 1970.  We
both had a wonderful time. We attended with our cousins, farmers in SW NE.
I was raving about our QB and how accurate he was and my cousin Rich said
"I'm going to hold my opinion until we see how good he is against a strong
pass rush".  Well, we found out.  He is a terrific QB when given time to
throw but judging from the VT game he looses it when pressed.  I hope it was
just a bad day like we all have from time to time.  I was hoping Pelini
would pull Lee and play Green for a couple of series.  It may have settled
Lee down.  

 

Here are some more of my thoughts on the VT game.

 

*         I saw two very average teams go at it.  Two teams that probably
belong in the top 35 instead of the top 20.

 

*         The QB play was very disappointing.

 

*         The NU receivers are a weak spot. I have seen enough of a couple
of our starters, thank you.  If you can't get open or catch the ball when it
hits you between the numbers, you belong on the side line catching rays.
Why not let some of the other receivers play?  We certainly have plenty of
them.  McNeil is a keeper and Paul is the best return man we have had in
some time but the jury is still out on his receiving ability.    

 

*         The defense played great against the run but the pass rush was
poor probably partly because of coaching strategy.  On the final VT
touchdown, the QB had so much time he could have made himself a sandwich
before he threw the ball.  I don't understand the "contain don't rush"
strategy.  You need to do both to be a top 10 team.  We are going to run
into much better QB's and receivers in the Big 12 and if we continue this
strategy they will cut us to ribbons.

 

*         The play calling was too predictable.  I watched the game with a
friend.  We decided to call the plays run or pass before the team lined up
to see how predictable NU was.  We called all the plays in the 3rd quarter
correctly except for two and gave up on continuing because it wasn't much of
a challenge.  Watson needs to open it up.  

 

I don't know if any of you saw the Boise State Fresno State game but those
offenses play all out for 60 minutes.  What a fun game to watch if you like
offense and defenses that wave at the ball carrier ilo tackling him.  That
is one thing that really bothers me about the first 3 NU games.  They seem
to look flat for periods in the game.  If Boise State can play for 60
minutes, why not NU?

 

I watch way too much pro and college FB; however, that doesn't make me an
expert, just a guy who can usually tell if a team is for real or not after
watching a couple of games.  I see 7 maybe 8 wins this season for NU but
hope for more if the defense continues to play like it has the first 3
games.

Mark a still photo is not going to tell all the story but I will stick to my thinking here, because even if the safety goes for the outside WR (who is already almost by him in that frame) the other safety would actually be able to 'slide' that way once the ball was in the air and probably help tackle the TE after about a 25-30 yard gain, but NO ONE else was going to help with the WR running down the sideline. Not to mention there is no one within at least 10 yards of the outside WR in that photo and, although I'd need a magnifying glass to tell it looks as if Taylor is already locked in on him and in mid throw.

You make some great points, but I believe the safety flat out went to the wrong read.

And Marvin Sanders (who has forgotten more about defense than we ever knew) was correct, he did not get deep enough in the first place in that situation.

A still on this blog
(http://huskermike.blogspot.com/2009/09/nuvirginia-tech-let-knawing-begin.html)
shows pretty clearly O'Hanlon'd pickle. The TE had already beaten
Thorell down the middle, and West was sitting about 15 yds off the LOS
and was about that far away from any VaTech player. The deep WR on the
far side looks covered, as was the far receiver in the flat. That left
O'Hanlon to play Russian Roulette. Taylor had already broken towards
Boone, so O'Hanlon rolled that way assuming he was the bigger threat.
Taylor suddenly reversed field and found Coale and ... well, you know.

Excellent points. I'd quibble with the top 35 designation, as I think there
is enough parity now that, flawed as they are, Nebraska can compete with
those top 20 teams.

Also, the Pelinis seemed to get it on the last sequence, when they began
sending all-out blitzes on every down and had Taylor running for his life.
Perhaps on the third down Suh and Co. began to worry too much about Taylor
getting by them for the touchdown. To be fair, he had shown about as much
accuracy as a loose fire hose up to that point.

Subject: [Husker] Final thoughts on the Va Tech game
Message-ID: <20090921.174411.17572.243134@mailpop02.vgs.untd.com>

What I was trying to point out regarding comparisons with the 1996 ASU
game was that Nebraska's first road game was that an inexperienced
offense was on the road against a veteran QB. I too was at the 1996 game,
I just had to drive about 100 miles from Tucson. It was a shock after
watching the Huskers win the 1996 Fiesta Bowl and Coach Osborne's second
national championship about eight months earlier.

We are forgetting that last year Tyrod Taylor averaged 5.8 yards per
carry, so he may have been a threat to run.

While I do agree that Matt O'Hanlon broke coverage, but as I pointed out
in my previous post this happened at the 1996 ASU game as well. And I
cannot lay the blame for the loss on his shoulders. Matt O'Hanlon had a
great recovery for the tackle. He could have given up on the play but
didn't. The speaks volumes for his hustle and heart, and will work for
him well down the road.

Gosh, you'd think that Nebraska just lost the conference or national
championship. This was only the third game of season and Nebraska's first
road game. As I posted previously, this game will serve Nebraska well
down the road.

As for punting instead of the attempting a 50+  yard field goal or
punting with 2:00 minute to go in the game, Coach Pelini looks like he
did a lot of Coach Osborne did on the road - play field position. The
defense was playing well at that time, so it was the right call to make.
I cannot remember how many times both Coach Solich or Coach Callahan
would go for it on fourth down, just to get stopped and shift momentum to
the other team. So, I cannot fault the coaching staff on either of those
calls.

I do take exception with all the passing when it is first and goal on the
six yard line. This is Nebraska football, and Roy Helu was having decent
success running right at the defense. Nebraska should have run right at
them on first down, then maybe an option or play action or fade on second
down, then a fade route on third, and finally kicked the field goal on
fourth. Granted all the penalties hurt, but Nebraska should have run it
on first down.

As for Roy Helu not having success getting to the perimeter, Va Tech had
a lot of speed on defense. A lot more than Nebraska had seen so far this
year. Running right at them was successful. It will also cause the
secondary to crowd the box and will open up play action deep.

However, the bottom line is that I do not coach at Nebraska, nor am I a
football player there. I am a fan, and as I fan I will support the team
come hell or high water. I will 'mourn' the losses and cheer the wins,
but I will always support the Huskers!

Go Big Red!

It really does seem like the VT coaches are actively encouraging Taylor not
to run. I've heard all kinds of possible explanations, but only a few people
know for sure.

Did a podcast with some VT guys last week and they pointed out that  
they're trying to get Tyrod to stay in the pocket more.

I don't think there's any real secret as to why - if VT's passing game  
doesn't improve, they won't win a lot of games. Their defense has  
holes, and they'll need a better offense than usual this year.

There was also a series (second quarter, I think) where, starting at the 
VaT three, NU ran once for a yard, then threw two passes and kicked the 
FG. I thought they should've kept pounding it on that one.

Thanks, Scott. I wasn't trying to argue, just really wanted your perspective on the play.

I saw it in a different light and wondered if it was just my scarlet and cream glasses skewing my view!

Lynette I don't really think arguing about this play is productive at this point, but I have some familiarity with defensive schemes and on that particular play the safety is supposed to cover the deep ball once the cornerback lets the wide receiver go and not get caught staring into the backfield thinking he may have to come up for run support, and in my opinion that is what happened. When a defense knows the game has come down to a point where the offense needs a huge play players have to absolutely sure of their responsibilities or what happened Saturday can happen- the safety in that situation is above ALL else not to let anyone get behind him, and I am almost willing to bet the coaching staff was screaming that on the sidelines (or should have been). Looking at the tape it does not appear he slipped or had any sort of physical issue on the play so that is why I would call it a gross mental lapse. 

Of course I have absolutely no idea what the player was thinking, but I do know what his responsibility was on that play. We will all never know for sure, but I am fairly confident the coaching staff will address (or has already addressed) the responsibilities for that scenario and that the player knows what he did wrong on the play. I am over it, and hopefully he is too as he is too valuable a player this year to let this bother him into the remainder of the season.

And you are right, there were many mistakes made in the game including those by the coaching staff, but my response was regarding the mistake made on the long pass play. Unfortunately, this particular mistake was the last one of the game and therefore most obvious.

The sun came up Sunday however.

Scott, 
?
How do you figure it was a "gross mental lapse?"? How do you know what Matt was thinking and why? 
?
I'm sorry, I just don't think a mental error or miscue on one play caused us to lose the game. It caused the score to shift which resulted in our loss --- BUT, allowing the runback on the initial kickoff, not getting into the endzone and settling for 5 field goals, not getting a first down to keep the ball out of VT's hands at the end of the game, they all contributed to our loss --- and many included mental errors ------- including ones by the coaches!

Rob I have to respectfully disagree with this statement- in my opinion,
Taylor made a play that anyone who could scramble around a little and
then throw a ball about 50 yards to a wide open receiver could have
made. In fact, the ball was almost overthrown, as you can see the
receiver had to stretch a bit for it and he actually made a great play.
And as someone previously mentioned, the pass rush was more of a
'containment' on that particular play, although for the life of me I
can't figure out why they did not all-out blitz Taylor, especially since
he does not seem to want to run the ball anymore.

You are right that one player should not be blamed for a loss, but I
believe that play was a result of a gross mental lapse, not a great QB
play.

But, $&%# happens.

Let's be honest here, Tyrod Taylor is a talented athlete that made a
great play. And let's not forget that VaTech is the two time reigning
ACC champion.

And I did review the DVR tonight, the photo and the YouTube video and
I gotta agree with Scott here.  If you go to about the 0:46 point in
the YouTube clip (a point in the play after the photo point), you can
pick out the four receivers.  Two on the defensive right are in front
of Asante and covered by the CB, the linebacker is chasing the TE with
the left corner coming up to cover the short pass, and VT's Coale is
down the sidelines.  Coale is at the 40, the others are at the 30 and
Asante and O'Hanlon are at the 43.  Taylor is just releasing the ball.
 O'Hanlon's responsibility has got to be the deep guy, but at the
point of the pass, the receiver is effectively past him.  A 20-30 yard
pass to the middle isn't going to help them a lot, but an 80 yard deep
ball is going to hurt us a lot.

But finally, my last word on this, is that this play really doesn't
matter since it didn't lose the game.  Every player and coach shares
that responsibility.  Matt played well all day, made his share of
plays and mistakes, but made one mistake that everyone saw.  That's
really too bad.  I'm just glad none of my mistakes are that
visible.... or show up on YouTube.  Not sure how I could keep doing my
job.

I still don't understand (and I'm sorry if this has been mentioned a lot) why a runner can just break the plane of the end zone and even if the ball pops out after that, it is a touchdown, but if a receiver doesn't hold the ball for 45 seconds after a catch and fall out of bounds that it's no good.

I realize what the rule was the other night, but in my opinion the rule needs to be changed. There are a few rules like this that are odd- think tuck rule for instance.

I personally have never liked the 'hold the ball through hitting the ground'
rules that they added a few years ago, but that's just me.  Mainly because
had the receiver caught the ball in the field and ran for a few yards and
was then tackled and lost the ball when he hit the ground, that's not
'losing possession'.  However it is 'losing possession' on a catch?  It
doesn't seem to line up.  Now if you were diving in the air to catch the
ball (no feet in play) and then lost it when you hit the ground, I could see
that.

That all being said...the play was called correctly according to the current
rules.

Hey, Scott!!

There is no such rule!!  Oh, am I too late??

But what I wanted to comment on is the rule itself.  It has been
explained to me and I understand what the rule says, but for the same
reasons as others on this list, it tends to make an exception for a
near reception in the endzone.  I also understand that they made the
change to the NCAA rule in 2007 to make it conform to the NFL rule.
Great.  There's so much consistency between those two organizations
already.  Why, the ball is pretty much the same shape, and um....um...
well, I'm sure there are others.

The point made above by Skyler and Scott is a valid one.  The nose of
a football crosses the goal line and regardless of what happens to it
next, its a touchdown.  A ball that is caught inbounds in the endzone
must be held until the catch is carried to the ground and beyond to be
a touchdown.  Regardless of whether the player had control of the
ball, or whether the ground caused the ball to be dropped.  Clearly,
with instant replay in HiDef these days, one can determine if the ball
was in control at the point of contact with the ground, you would
think.

Well, I agree the call was correct.  I disagree with the rule.  I also
question why the coaches didn't ask whether the call would be
reviewed, since all plays are reviewed these days.

And all of this talk minus a functioning time machine will result in
nothing (mine's in the shop this week).  But I feel better.  And this
is the best the list has been since probably the TTech game last year.
 Way to go!!

The best explanation I've ever heard to describe this is that when you catch the ball, you need to be able to maintain possession to make some sort of "football move" if you catch the ball.  I think that's because it's really tough to determine whether the receiver actually has secured possession of the ball at times, or if the ball just happens to be coincidentally on the arm or hands.  It's not an issue in the running game unless you've just received the ball on a handoff or on a pitch...and even then, if you lose possession, it's a fumble and a live ball that anybody can pick up.

In an interview yesterday Bo said neither he nor the booth had a good look
at the play and he asked the ref if it would be reviewed and the ref
replied, "He clearly bobbled the ball on the way down".  Bo was upset about
that after he got a chance to watch the replay later because he obviously
didn't bobble the ball.

It's still moot, however as it was not a catch, but in that situation you'd
want them to at least take a look at it.

I thought about this a lot as well, that perhaps a shorter field would have made it slightly easier to defend Taylor if the Huskers failed to convert the 4th down, but then again VT would have only needed to get about 25 yards or so to be in FG range.

20/20.

I too have to disagree as well.? I remember getting physically sick over the ASU game in '96.? 
This one felt bad, but not quite like that.

That said, perhaps to stir the pot a bit more, at the time, I was thinking we should punt on 4th and 1 during our last possession, but now I'm thinking that we should have gone for it - QB sneak/Helu counter?? Hindsight being 20-20, it now seems like less of a roll of the dice than what actually happened.

Scott, 
?
How do you figure it was a "gross mental lapse?"? How do you know what Matt was thinking and why? 
?
I'm sorry, I just don't think a mental error or miscue on one play caused us to lose the game. It caused the score to shift which resulted in our loss --- BUT, allowing the runback on the initial kickoff, not getting into the endzone and settling for 5 field goals, not getting a first down to keep the ball out of VT's hands at the end of the game, they all contributed to our loss --- and many included mental errors ------- including ones by the coaches!

Yes, this was already pointed out to me right after I originally posted
it. All the confusion of this weekend and it slipped my mind. Call it a
"gross mental error" like a defensive player might make!

	I thought about this a lot as well, that perhaps a shorter field
would have made it slightly easier to defend Taylor if the Huskers
failed to convert the 4th down, but then again VT would have only needed
to get about 25 yards or so to be in FG range.

	I too have to disagree as well.  I remember getting physically
sick over the ASU game in '96.  
	This one felt bad, but not quite like that.
	
	That said, perhaps to stir the pot a bit more, at the time, I
was thinking we should punt on 4th and 1 during our last possession, but
now I'm thinking that we should have gone for it - QB sneak/Helu
counter?  Hindsight being 20-20, it now seems like less of a roll of the
dice than what actually happened.

	Scott, 
	 
	How do you figure it was a "gross mental lapse?"  How do you
know what Matt was thinking and why? 
	 
	I'm sorry, I just don't think a mental error or miscue on one
play caused us to lose the game. It caused the score to shift which
resulted in our loss --- BUT, allowing the runback on the initial
kickoff, not getting into the endzone and settling for 5 field goals,
not getting a first down to keep the ball out of VT's hands at the end
of the game, they all contributed to our loss --- and many included
mental errors ------- including ones by the coaches!

I agree with you 100% Skylar. That is what bothered me the most. If its incomplete fine, but the fact that there wasnt even a review of the play is crazy.

In an interview yesterday Bo said neither he nor the booth had a good look
at the play and he asked the ref if it would be reviewed and the ref
replied, "He clearly bobbled the ball on the way down".? Bo was upset about
that after he got a chance to watch the replay later because he obviously
didn't bobble the ball.

It's still moot, however as it was not a catch, but in that situation you'd
want them to at least take a look at it.

I am not sure why it should have been reviewed - it was obvious that he did not hold onto the ball when he hit the turf - by rule it wasn't a catch 

The replay official should review plays in question - I would suspect the replay official was very confident the correct call was made. I

I heard today on a radio show that had Mitch Sherman on that all plays are
reviewed in the booth. And that the review judge makes the call to the field
on when one is to be looked at longer.

That same Hitler clip was used when Brett Favre finally went to the Vikings. It was a big hit here in Packersland. Still funny though.

This one's kinda poorly done compared to most. I'm not sure even Hitler
would curse that much.

My personal favorites are the Dallas Cowboys and Kanye West/Taylor Swift

Definitely worth the watch.  Other than dodging the Zac Lee injury
questions, he did a great job.  Especially when he was talking about that
being the toughest loss he's been a part of and promising his team will play
sharper going forward.

For all you can say about Bo, it's OBVIOUS why kids love to play for him and
want to run through a wall for him.

However on the "Nebraska Football Show" he's not very good.

He slouches in his overstuffed chair, looks and acts disinterested, and 
it appears he's rather be anywhere else then there.

I am glad this topic came up. In addition to Bo not appearing interested during his weekly show, I really do not care for what the show has morphed into. They show some selected highlights, Greg Sharpe asks some questions, and there are coach and player interviews. Which is fine and has its place. But I do not get any real feeling for the game itself. I'd personally prefer seeing most of plays from the game along with commentary from Bo on what they were trying to acomplish given the down, distance, field position, formation, ect. I know, wishful thinking on my part.

To be truthful, I don't really care all that much for coaches shows.
The FSKansas City channel on Cox will play several coaches shows from
the Big XXII conference during the week, and none are worth using DVR
space for.  While coaches are hired to be the face of the program, few
are media darlings, and fewer are media savvy.  Bo is neither.  He
really does look like he'd rather be having a root canal, the lack of
analysis of game film is striking, and I saw it once and figured there
must be reruns of the Brady Bunch I'd rather be watching.  I have
watched Doc Sadler a few times, and at least he has energy and seems
glad to have a chance to talk about basketball to anyone.  Do you
blame him?

I do tend to watch the Big Red Wrapup on NET on Tuesday nights.  While
Fiala can get a bit tiresome, Kugler is quite competent and they have
several guests that are interesting to listen to.  This week's show
featured Joe Ganz diagnosing a Husker running play, showing the film,
then the schematic, then a breakdown on how the players executed the
play.  Pretty interesting.  And his take on Lee's performance was
pretty interesting too (but he does want to become a coach, so he has
to watch what he says).  They usually have a phone interview with a
new recruit, with Shawn Callahan. and with other sports writers.  I
imagine because of contractual issues they can't interview any of the
coaches, which is really too bad.  All in all, I think its the best
post-game analysis at least here in Nebraska.  They even give game
predictions for the next week by running a PS3 (or XBox) NCAA College
Football 2010 simulation - spoiler alert - the computer predicts NU 38
- Louisiana 3.

Disclaimer: I don't work for NET, nobody in my family works for NET,
and I don't receive any free broadcasts from NET.  Well, actually I
can get free broadcasts from NET but I have cable so I guess I pay for
the free broadcasts anyway.

They also do not want to give away too much info on these shows that
other coaches may find useful, hence the "vanilla" style.

It seems since the Billy C era that the Sunday night coach's show has 
gotten away from real X and O recap of the game.

I remember the show with TO and Frank being an almost a complete replay 
of the game.

Subject: [Husker] Example from the rule book on incomplete TD Pass
Message-ID: <4ABACA32.6010205@earthlink.net>

Regarding "why a runner can just break the plane of the end zone and 
even if the ball pops out after that, it is a touchdown, but if a 
receiver doesn't hold the ball for 45 seconds after a catch and fall out 
of bounds that it's no good", the issue is possession.  In the case of 
the runner, it's clear the runner has possession.  In the case of a 
receiver, possession has to be established.

Regarding "However it is 'losing possession' on a catch?", I'd say it is 
not 'losing possession' but failure to prove possession in the first place.

Also, I think it's very important that the rules be consistent.  How it 
is decided that a receiver has possession should be the same whether in 
the end zone or at midfield.  If Holt's "catch" is called a TD, meaning 
he had possession, then the same type of play in midfield should be 
called either a catch (if the receiver was touched by a defender and 
therefore down by contact upon hitting the ground) or a fumble (if not 
down by contact).  I'm think many would object would object to such a 
midfield interpretation of catches/fumbles.

Andy

---

I personally have never liked the 'hold the ball through hitting the ground'
rules that they added a few years ago, but that's just me.  Mainly because
had the receiver caught the ball in the field and ran for a few yards and
was then tackled and lost the ball when he hit the ground, that's not
'losing possession'.  However it is 'losing possession' on a catch?  It
doesn't seem to line up.  Now if you were diving in the air to catch the
ball (no feet in play) and then lost it when you hit the ground, I could see
that.

That all being said...the play was called correctly according to the current
rules.

I still don't understand (and I'm sorry if this has been mentioned a lot)
why a runner can just break the plane of the end zone and even if the ball
pops out after that, it is a touchdown, but if a receiver doesn't hold the
ball for 45 seconds after a catch and fall out of bounds that it's no good.

I realize what the rule was the other night, but in my opinion the rule
needs to be changed. There are a few rules like this that are odd- think
tuck rule for instance.

I agree with this rule on one foot inbounds....but Holt had both feet and a

Also in the NCAA rule book:
 
"Airborne receiver A85 grasps a forward pass and in the process
of going to the ground, first contacts the ground with his left foot
inbounds as he falls to the ground out of bounds. Immediately
upon A85 hitting the ground out of bounds, the ball comes loose.
RULING: Incomplete pass regardless of whether or not the ball hits
the ground because the receiver is out of bounds."

Is Big Red Wrapup shown on DirecTV?  I used to watch it when I had my  
BUD (big ugly dish) a couple of years ago, it was quite good.  However  
we've moved since then and I don't have it anymore (I do like DirecTV  
though).

Is Big Red Wrapup shown on DirecTV?  I used to watch it when I had my
BUD (big ugly dish) a couple of years ago, it was quite good.  However
we've moved since then and I don't have it anymore (I do like DirecTV
though).

Well in the college game you dont have to be down by contact. You are down once your knee touches the ground and the ground cant cause a fumble so it would simply be a catch and down where the reciever touches the ground. Not that big a deal to me.

Regarding "why a runner can just break the plane of the end zone and even if the ball pops out after that, it is a touchdown, but if a receiver doesn't hold the ball for 45 seconds after a catch and fall out of bounds that it's no good", the issue is possession.? In the case of the runner, it's clear the runner has possession.? In the case of a receiver, possession has to be established.

Regarding "However it is 'losing possession' on a catch?", I'd say it is not 'losing possession' but failure to prove possession in the first place.

Also, I think it's very important that the rules be consistent.? How it is decided that a receiver has possession should be the same whether in the end zone or at midfield.? If Holt's "catch" is called a TD, meaning he had possession, then the same type of play in midfield should be called either a catch (if the receiver was touched by a defender and therefore down by contact upon hitting the ground) or a fumble (if not down by contact).? I'm think many would object would object to such a midfield interpretation of catches/fumbles.

Andy

---

I personally have never liked the 'hold the ball through hitting the ground'
rules that they added a few years ago, but that's just me.? Mainly because
had the receiver caught the ball in the field and ran for a few yards and
was then tackled and lost the ball when he hit the ground, that's not
'losing possession'.? However it is 'losing possession' on a catch?? It
doesn't seem to line up.? Now if you were diving in the air to catch the
ball (no feet in play) and then lost it when you hit the ground, I could see
that.

That all being said...the play was called correctly according to the current
rules.???

I still don't understand (and I'm sorry if this has been mentioned a lot)
why a runner can just break the plane of the end zone and even if the ball
pops out after that, it is a touchdown, but if a receiver doesn't hold the
ball for 45 seconds after a catch and fall out of bounds that it's no good.

I realize what the rule was the other night, but in my opinion the rule
needs to be changed. There are a few rules like this that are odd- think
tuck rule for instance.

I agree with this rule on one foot inbounds....but Holt had both feet and a
knee down inbounds on that play.

Also in the NCAA rule book:

"Airborne receiver A85 grasps a forward pass and in the process
of going to the ground, first contacts the ground with his left foot
inbounds as he falls to the ground out of bounds. Immediately
upon A85 hitting the ground out of bounds, the ball comes loose.
RULING: Incomplete pass regardless of whether or not the ball hits
the ground because the receiver is out of bounds."

Isn't writing about not bashing on an individual player the same as  
bashing on an individual player? It seems to be a great trick of the  
trade - pretending to stand up for something when you're really using  
it to generate more emotional feedback.

Especially this bit:
.........O'Hanlon missed a big assignment for all to see at the worst  
time Saturday in the Huskers' 16-15 loss to Virginia Tech.

With the Huskers in a cover-two zone as the Hokies faced second down- 
and-six from their 16-yard line in the final 90 seconds, O'Hanlon bit  
on a Tyrod Taylor pump fake toward the middle of the field. The  
safety's hesitation allowed Tech receiver Danny Coale to break free on  
a post route. Taylor hit him in stride.........

It's kind of like looking at my teenage son and saying "Gee, are you  
okay? That enormous zit on your nose looks like it hurts".

?
Good point.? Also, analyzing, critiquing, criticizing, etc. is part of sport.? When a team or player or coach does something well, they are praised.? When something is poorly done, they are criticized.? That's the way it is.? I haven't seen anyone attacking O'Hanlon on a personal level, but when you are on a stage as big as major college football, there are times when you are going to take some heat if you screw up.? And to keep saying over and over "well they are just kids" and "they feel terrible about it" is irrelevant.? Of course they do.? But it is part of the deal to be doubted and criticized when deserved.? Zac Lee has looked far better against Sun Belt teams than a top twenty team...so far.? There are doubts about him.? O'Hanlon made a bad play that essentially cost a game that was virtually won, he gets noticed for that.? Those saying so are not the bad guys.

Hey all,

I am in eastern Ohio. Cannot seem to find a radio broadcast guide for the
football games. Is
radio not available even on the web? I used to be able to listen to the
huskers webcast.
Does anyone have a list of radio stations that do webcast?
Thanks for the help.   Go Big Red!

Cal

Hi all,

Thought I'd post this link to ESPN 360,
http://espn.go.com/broadband/espn360/channels?channel=3577604&, where it
looks like you can watch (or re-watch) just about any game that's been on
abc or any of the ESPNs.  Access depends on your ISP.  I streamed the S.
Carolina/Ole Miss game last night, and have been trying to work up the guts
to take another look at last week's tilt against V. Tech.

Having read all the discussion about the loss in Blacksburg, I have to say
that I think the crowd won the game in the end.  The teams were more or less
evenly matched; one could even argue that--between the running game and the
D-line play--NU held an advantage.  None of that seemed to matter, though,
when it came to the oft-mentioned sequence that began with a 1st and Goal
from the six and ended with a punt.  As soon as we got into the red zone,
the crowd got *loud*.  It seemed to me that our boys simply couldn't hear
each other, and they panicked.  Though we held the lead for a good while
after that, the tide of momentum shifted in Va Tech's favor at that moment.
I don't know about y'all, but I've always been a fan of Frank Beamer and
have really enjoyed the games between the Hokies and the Huskers.  Both were
painful losses, yes, but I'd take a hard-fought loss to a worthy opponent
over a blowout of an outmanned squad any day.

Best,
Alex Quinlan

Well in the college game you dont have to be down by contact. You are down once your knee touches the ground and the ground cant cause a fumble so it would simply be a catch and down where the reciever touches the ground. Not that big a deal to me.

Regarding "why a runner can just break the plane of the end zone and even if the ball pops out after that, it is a touchdown, but if a receiver doesn't hold the ball for 45 seconds after a catch and fall out of bounds that it's no good", the issue is possession.? In the case of the runner, it's clear the runner has possession.? In the case of a receiver, possession has to be established..

Regarding "However it is 'losing possession' on a catch?", I'd say it is not 'losing possession' but failure to prove possession in the first place.

Also, I think it's very important that the rules be consistent.? How it is decided that a receiver has possession should be the same whether in the end zone or at midfield.? If Holt's "catch" is called a TD, meaning he had possession, then the same type of play in midfield should be called either a catch (if the receiver was touched by a defender and therefore down by contact upon hitting the ground) or a fumble (if not down by contact).? I'm think many would object would object to such a midfield interpretation of catches/fumbles.

Andy

---

I personally have never liked the 'hold the ball through hitting the ground'
rules that they added a few years ago, but that's just me.? Mainly because
had the receiver caught the ball in the field and ran for a few yards and
was then tackled and lost the ball when he hit the ground, that's not
'losing possession'.? However it is 'losing possession' on a catch?? It
doesn't seem to line up.? Now if you were diving in the air to catch the
ball (no feet in play) and then lost it when you hit the ground, I could see
that.

That all being said...the play was called correctly according to the current
rules.???

I still don't understand (and I'm sorry if this has been mentioned a lot)
why a runner can just break the plane of the end zone and even if the ball
pops out after that, it is a touchdown, but if a receiver doesn't hold the
ball for 45 seconds after a catch and fall out of bounds that it's no good.

I realize what the rule was the other night, but in my opinion the rule
needs to be changed. There are a few rules like this that are odd- think
tuck rule for instance.

Also in the NCAA rule book:

"Airborne receiver A85 grasps a forward pass and in the process
of going to the ground, first contacts the ground with his left foot
inbounds as he falls to the ground out of bounds. Immediately
upon A85 hitting the ground out of bounds, the ball comes loose.
RULING: Incomplete pass regardless of whether or not the ball hits
the ground because the receiver is out of bounds."

I miss Cosgrove (chuckle).  Seriously, what a great performance by the Husker defense.  Based on what VT did to Miami today, it's even more impressive.  

Bo and Carl have really turned the defense around.

Glad to see the Offense score some touchdowns.   Too many fumbles, though, and way too many penalties.  Fortunately, they have some time to work out some kinks before the MU game.

Finally, hope the injuries aren't serious (although the one to Thenarse sounded bad).  Huskers need a good defensive backfield for the MU game.

Anyway great job Huskers,

I disagree.  I think it gives the coaches and players a little bit of encouragement and confidence that they can play with the big boys.  VT was a very good team that they should have beaten.   Any concerns or self doubts should be erased.

1. Newspaper coverages all noted that Zac Lee has recovered what they 
call his percentage mojo (15 for 18), and it's easy to see why: 
against VTech last week, the Huskers' pass protection left much to be 
desired whereas yesterday it didn't. Does anyone imagine that pass 
defense was overlooked in last week's practices?

2) Last week's practices received moderate praise from the coaching 
staff every day, something we haven't seen and heard in quite a 
while. Most encouraging.

3) From what I could see on TV, injuries to Thenarse and Asante 
occurred away from contact with other players. When Asante went down, 
suspicions immediately focused on an ACL problem, but apparently that 
wasn't the case as preliminary reports call the injury "temporary."

4) Henery has racheted up his punting game to 45+ yards per kick 
combined with amazing accuracy. It seemed to me that Adi's kickoffs 
were better than ever. Husker punt returners did well, and coverage 
teams seemed to have improved. Reliability in this area is quite 
comforting to fans.

5) What's up with the erratic center snaps?

6) Cody Green convinced me his long ground gainer in the first game 
was no fluke.

7) I love to see it when a walk-on like Jase Dean of Bridgeport makes 
an outstanding solo play. The hit he laid on the Cajun punt returner 
reminded me of the hits Shanle laid on the Michigan (?) punt returner 
in the Alamo Bowl a few years go. The instant replay showed that the 
refs blew that particular call.

As I posted yesterday, I agree with Tommy. Nebraska should be encouraged by
the VT-Miami result. We gave up two touchdowns to VT after:
- a long opening kickoff return; and
- a fluky, desperation Hail Mary pass (albeit well-executed)

That same VT team put up twice as many TDs on a Top 10 Miami team the very
next week, while holding them to 209 total yards (NU had 343 total).

What exactly was the personal foul on that play? Being at the game, the 
boos from the crowd in response to the flag overwhelmed the explanation 
from the referee. And I forgot my radio, so couldn't hear any on-air 
commentary. From what I saw, and what was shown on the replay screens, 
that was a completely clean hit.

First, I have to admit that I didn't watch the VaTech/Miami game for
more than a few minutes.  But I have to wonder what the driving
rainstorm might have done to both teams.  It was a wet grass field.
Miami gets its boost from team speed, but a wet turf may have
nullified that.  I'll be more than glad to hear from anyone who
actually watched the game to give their impressions.  How the heck did
VaTech score so many points?

But I'd agree with Tommy.  Again, there are things we learn with every
game played.  A shoulda-won against VaTech looks pretty good (I even
heard some talking heads yesterday mention the fact that VaTech
shoulda come out of the Nebraska game with a loss).  I did watch some

otherwise it was going to be another close game.  You put those two
things together and it gives me pretty good feeling about the Mizzou
game.  Nevada moved the ball against that Tiger defense; the Tiger
offense is no way near as potent and sudden as they were last year.
Our defense is much improved, and our offense is good enough to move
the ball on anyone.  I personally can't wait.  I think this next game
is going to be fun.  Agonizing, painful, but fun.

Helmet-to-helmet contact I believe was the call.

This is off topic as it pertains to the Huskers, but I was watching
the Indiana-Michigan game yesterday morning.  IU was driving after
Michigan had taken the lead.  About 2:30 minutes to in the game.  IU
qb throws a slant pattern, and by all accounts, the ball was caught
simultaneously by the receiver and defender, and they fall to the
ground.  The defender wrestles the ball away while rolling on the
ground.  The officials call it Michigan ball.  The replay is pretty
clear - simultaneous catch, fall to the ground, defender wrestles the
ball away on the ground.  Officials confirm the call on the field on
replay.

I thought, like in baseball, the tie goes to the runner.  A
simultaneous catch and the ball is down should go to the offense.  Am
I missing something, and did the refs get it right?  Or was I and the
announcer (and the IU coach who went ballistic on the sidelines) right
and the refs blew a big call?

?
That's a good one.? Here's a couple of clips from the NCAA rule book:
?
"ARTICLE 8. A simultaneous catch or recovery is a catch or recovery in
which there is joint possession of a live ball by opposing players inbounds.."
?
"If a forward pass is caught simultaneously by opposing
players inbounds, the ball becomes dead and belongs to the passing team."
?
"Two opposing players receive a legal forward pass while both are
off the ground, and both players return to the ground inbounds at the
same time. RULING: Simultaneous catch; the ball is awarded to the
passing team (Rule 2-2-8)."
?
"Two opposing players receive a ball while both are off the ground,
and one player returns to the ground inbounds before the other.
RULING: No simultaneous catch. The legal forward pass is
completed or intercepted by the player who first returned to the
ground."
?
That's about all the references I could find to this situation.? My take is the same as Nick's, it was a blown call.? I thought it was a simultaneous catch and after both players were on the ground, the defender wrestled the ball away.? I think it should have gone to the passing team.

You are correct in that if both players have possession, it belongs to the 
offense. That being said, there is always a lot of fighting for the ball after 
the whistle (more on a fumble, you would never beleive how many times
the person who initially recovers it loses it in a pile). I can certianly understand
how a ref may not get the call correct, but I am suprised it was not overturned
on the review. It may be like the HOlt catch/non-catch, the O did not 
keep control.

Imo: it doesn't mean anything to anyone outside of chatrooms and watercoolers. Teams change so much the first few weeks of the season, which combined with VT's earlier loss (I don't think VT was going to expose too much more of their playbook on a team they under-estimated) and the weather; the VT vs Miami was better than the team we played. However, considering beating us by 1 point at home moved them up in the polls a couple spots, applying the same poll logic they should now be a top 5 team.

I may be wrong, but I thought I heard simultanious catch was not one of the reviewable/overturnable option.

I'm not positive, but I think they did review it, and there wasn't enough evidence to overturn the call.  It was very close, in my opinion.  I thought it should have been Indiana's ball, but it was very close.  Remember...to overturn a call, there must be incontrovertible evidence.

He did start, and had 3 tackles...one sack for a loss of 5 yards.

Seems like the announcers called his name a few times, stating that he was doing very well.  Can't remember exactly, though.

Awesome! Philip went to the same HS I did (so did Jason Lohr, DT from
the 98-2002 timeframe) so I'm always pumped to see him do well.

Did anyone else notice the 60s style player photos on the big screen 
during pre-game? I thought they were great! Suh doing a passable 
imitation of Larry Jacobson. I know Jacobson was late 60s early 70s guy, 
but his player shot with the big black frame glasses is still a favorite.

I thought the post game video was well done. It gave highlights from the 
60s,70s, 80s, 90s and 2Ks. I'm always a sucker for fireworks, too.

I haven't looked it up, but I think Mich lost to Indiana at Indiana
last in 1986 or 87, but had not lost to Indiana at home since 1967.
And not to give away too many secrets, that was the year of Indiana's
last Rose Bowl appearance, I believe, where they faced a little known
back at USC by the name of OJ Simpson.  Luckily, they didn't have to
play both Michigan and Ohio State that year. I was in high school and
a big fan then, and my Mom is a Hoosier grad, so I came by it
honestly.  Didn't convert to the current Big Red until my rebirth as a
grad student in Lincoln in the early '80's.

Anyway, I may still have a soft spot in my heart for the Hoosiers, but
to quote Bob Uecker "Personally, I think we got hosed on that call!"

Those judgment calls need to be made more consistently, or they need to be
reviewed. It's too hard at full speed for an official to determine whether
it was really a helmet-to-helmet hit.

The other problem is that you can't go around calling a personal foul every
single time a helmet grazes another helmet, which is what leads to the
judgment calls. I've seen some blatant ones get missed, and some weak ones
get called.

VT is sixth in both polls this week. I expect that from the coaches but not
the writers. It's clear that people were in too much of a rush to elevate
Miami.

I think VT is not as good as they're rated now, but they're not as bad as
they were rated after losing to Bama. About 10th sounds right. And the fact
that the Huskers should have beaten that team has me confident going into
Big XII play.

This is how I saw it. At live speed, it seemed obvious that the ball was
simultaneously possessed, but when they slowed it down you really couldn't
pick out exactly when the defender gained full control of the ball. Since it
was called an interception on the field, I think the replay official's hands
were tied.

I haven't seen anyone mention the term, strength of schedule, in this discussion.  Isn't this used in some of the computer BCS rankings?

VT is sixth in both polls this week. I expect that from the coaches but not
the writers. It's clear that people were in too much of a rush to elevate
Miami.

I think VT is not as good as they're rated now, but they're not as bad as
they were rated after losing to Bama. About 10th sounds right. And the fact
that the Huskers should have beaten that team has me confident going into
Big XII play.

And I think Aaron dots the i on this.  Whether the call was reviewable
or not, the play was reviewed and they couldn't find evidence to
overturn the play.  There wasn't clear evidence which player had sole
control over the ball, so the replay official couldn't overturn the
play.  And if the call isn't reviewable, the bad call on the field
stands.  Almost a Catch 22.

I wonder if the Indiana coach might have set some sort of record on
gum throwing?  It was a might heave.  Hope no one was injured.

And now back to our regularly scheduled programming.

Don't know if its available on line anywhere, but the back page in
Sunday Husker section of Weird Jerald had a very nice whole stadium
view when the crowd released the balloons after the first field goal
Saturday evening.  I'd really like to have that picture myself.

Baylor's all everything QB, has an isolated tear in his ACL.  He is out for the season they say.  The injury occurred in the first series of the game and they allowed him to go back in and play.  I am sure they did not know the severity of the knee injury at that moment, but they were not playing in the National Championship game.  I hope the NU Doctors and Trainers are more protective of their athletes than it sounds like Baylor is.

 

I know NU has many battles to face before looking ahead to Baylor, but this is hard to understand.

I as well hope our trainer staff is better. Considering it was just the ACL, he could have continued to play with not as much pain as you think and it just feels weak.  When I tore my ACL I also tore up a lot of menicus/cartilage so I couldn't even walk without pain, but my friend that tore just the ACL, he was fine, running around even playing vollyball.

You beat me to it- sometimes ACL tears can be difficult to diagnose, and
while the trainers here certainly should have erred on the side of
caution I have seen ACL tears where the player had a high tolerance for
pain and we thought it was just a twisted knee.

I've always felt that a good way to look at how you're progressing is to see
how you compare to the rest of your opponents season. It's not perfect, but
it's another way of seeing how our team has played. 

Neb 49 - FAU 3
Scoring D: 3 points - FAU's lowest point total of the season (16 @ S. Car,
25 vs ULM)
Total D: 358 yards - 2nd lowest behind SC (307) and ahead of ULM (498)

Scoring O: 49 points - FAU's largest amount given up this season (38 @ S.
Car, 27 vs ULM)
Total O: 490 yards - 2nd lowest behind SC (516) and ahead of ULM (364)

Neb 38 - Ark St 9
Scoring D: 9 points - ASU's lowest point total of the season (61 @ Miss
Vally St, 27 vs Troy)
Total D: 274 yards - Lowest of the season MSVS (496) and Troy (305)

Scoring O: 38 points - ASU's largest amount given up this season (0 vs Miss
Valley St, 30 vs Troy)
Total O: 494 yards - 2nd most behind Troy (507) and ahead of MSVS (69)

Neb 15 - VT 16
Scoring D: 16 points - VT's lowest point total of the season (24 vs Bama, 52
vs Marshall, 31 vs Miami)
Total D: 278 yards - 2nd lowest behind Bama (155) and ahead of Marsh (605)
and Miami (370)

Scoring O: 15 points - 2nd highest point total against them behind Bama (34)
but ahead of Marshal (10) and Miami (7)
Total O: 343 yards - 2nd highest against them below Bama (498) but ahead of
Marshal (252) and Miami (209)

Neb 55 - ULL 0
Scoring D: 0 points - FAU's lowest point total of the season (42 vs
Southern, 17 vs KSU, 3 vs LSU)
Total D: 222 yards - Lowest of the season...Southern(533) KSU(287) LSU(272)

Scoring O: 55 points - Most points allowed this season (0 vs Southern, 15 vs
KSU, 31 @ LSU)
Total O: 433 yards - Most given up this season...Southern(380) KSU (377)
LSU(330)

In every comparison we were no worse than the 2nd best effort against our
opponent.  I know it's early, but I think we're moving in the right
direction.

Many thanks, Skylar. While statistics alone prove little, these 
confirm a general feeling I've had but have been too lazy to do the 
research. This is probably way off base, but I wonder how these stats 
compare to last season's at this point.

I certainly don't know how good the Husker squad at this point or how 
good it can become, but I feel more confident in its ability to be 
competitive against any team on the schedule, which was my personal 
objective for this season.

Fellow Listers,

I am also one that tempers stats to a degree, but I feel that Skylar's are fairly good to go by.  Of course, other factors (e.g. conditions, types of offenses, etc) come into play, but over the course of time, and the number of teams played, they usually even out.  

One stat that I like to use is the number of plays over 10 yards that a defense gives up.  At one point last year, I ran stats over a few years, and last years' team was much improved...especially as the year ran on.  I'm curious if this years is any better.  VT had multiple 10+ plays, and they were costly.  Especially one on 3rd and long on their first drive, and, of course, the killer bomb at the end.  If I get a chance, I'll try to do the same again this year.

It brought a tear to my eye.  A MUST read. I've read other similar comments from other visitors to Lincoln, but this was great.

Before anyone goes on chastising the Baylor training staff, please
recall the name Bobby Newcombe and also please recall the scroller on
the bottom of your TV this weekend in regard to Sam Bradford.

No, not all ACL tears are terribly painful.  Especially when in
isolation and especially in a 20 year old athlete who has adrenaline
levels running as high as the national debt.......or controversy within
the medical profession in regards to health care reform..............or
nostalgia in the crowd watching the big screen after Saturday's
game........(I could go on but won't).

Baylor's back up quarterback is also banged up.  Wow, what a big blow
for them....

It occurs to me (at this late date) that the Husker squad appears to 
have just been graduated from Sunday School. A little checking (see 
attachment) from the husker.com website supports this notion:

http://www.huskers.com/SportSelect.dbml?SPSID=4&SPID=22&DB_OEM_ID=100&SORT_ORDER=5&Q_SEASON=2009&PRINTABLE_PAGE=

No less than 102 players are either Freshmen, Redshirt Freshmen, or Sophomores:
80 Freshmen or RSF
22 Sophomores

I'm an English teacher, not a math teacher, so would someone please 
double-check my figures?

I made the 6 hour drive from Columbus to Blacksburg for the VaTech game last weekend. We stayed at a friends house who lived a mile from the stadium and as we started our walk down the steet, read clad as usual, a car pulled over.  The driver got out of his car and offered us a ride to the stadium.  As we rode with him, he told us about his experience in Lincoln last year.  He said he was treated so well, he could not drive by and let a Husker walk to the stadium.  We got to Lane Stadium, and were treated to drinks and food by every tailgate we crossed because of the way they were treated in Lincoln.  
Made me proud to be a Husker.

Steve-

I double checked and your numbers are basically correct.  I counted one less freshman but my eyes don't work well anymore.

I would postulate that the numbers distribution are explained by some of these phenomenon.


1)      Callahan's walk-on philosophy.

2)      Callahan's departure

3)      Pelini's walk-on philosophy

4)      General program attrition - 'handwriting on the wall, I'm not playing'

I counted 39 Freshman, 40 RedshirtFresh, 22 Sophomores, 26 Juniors, 14 Seniors.

Lack of Seniors = coaching change possibly plus old walk-on philosophy.
Abundance of fresh and redfresh = new walk-on change
Lack of others = old walk-on thoughts.

For perspective (and probably irrelevant!) ,  the 1995 Roster in the press guide listed 177 players.  (Why 1995 - it's in my office!).

122 players with numbers.

53 Freshman without numbers.  2 sophomores without numbers (Eric Warfield and Shevin Wiggins - ever hear of those guys?)

35 Freshman with numbers  (would they be the equivalent of redshirt freshman?)
36 Sophomores with numbers
29 Juniors with numbers
22 Seniors with numbers

OK, my one semi-factual contribution to the Husker List for Fall of 2009.  No clue that it means anything.

A side effect of this is that people who obsess about the recruiting ranking are going to need to deal with a low ranking next spring.  The low number of seniors means fewer scholarships available to give out, which will keep the Rivals ranking capped low.

Great point Mike, I haven't heard anyone mention that in the "recruiting
angst" discussions. I try not to worry too much about recruiting myself,
especially with the way the Pelinis have started to develop guys.

Recruiting is probably 75% of college coaching success, but it needs 
to be kept in perspective. If I remember correctly, the 1995 Husker 
squad was composed of recruiting years ranked no higher than 15th, 
yet that team has been recognized as the greatest team of all time.

Another thing to keep in mind about recruiting: Dr. Tom always said 
that the walk-on program was worth six scholarships per year. During 
one pay-per-view game last year, Kelly Stauffer who was/is a 
perceptive analyst stated that Nebraska could't be competitive if it 
had walk-ons as starters, apparently forgetting that the '95 Huskers 
had either six or seven walk-on starters [defense and offense] in the 
Fiesta Bowl. Someone must have reminded him of that fact because he 
never repeated that statement.

Looks like someone out there has been reading last week's list 
comments on Bo's Tuesday afternoon show because this week it shifted 
gears radically and came much closer to Bo giving considerable 
commentary on game specifics. Big improvement! Not only that, but the 
production values were consideracbly improved, particularly the 
reduction of previous background music that drowned out player 
comments.

I feel like you contradicted yourself there. How can recruiting explain 75%
of success if it's possible to take walk-ons, who nobody recruited, and turn
them into championship-caliber starters? I realize you may have just picked
a number there, but I'm curious how you arrived at it.

Steve...based on this I'll have to try watching the show again.? It is such an opportunity to really learn something about the team, coaches, and what they are trying to do at any given point that I couldn't believe how poor the show was and stopped watching it.?I'll check the Fox Central guide right now and hope for a replay.

Looks like someone out there has been reading last week's list comments on Bo's Tuesday afternoon show because this week it shifted gears radically and came much closer to Bo giving considerable commentary on game specifics. Big improvement! Not only that, but the production values were consideracbly improved, particularly the reduction of previous background music that drowned out player comments.

That's funny, I was finally able to watch the show (this weeks) for the first time this season and I was wondering what everyone was complaining about last week.

It's not a contradiction if you distinguish between recruiting, which is the act of identifying the best players that fit your program and convincing them to attend your school, and recruiting services, which is the act of ranking high school players.

The two are quite different.  For example, I'll name four quarterbacks and ask you to rank them based on how you've seen them play.

Harrison Beck, Tony Romo, Sam Keller, Joe Ganz

Now that you've ranked them, take a look at how recruiting services ranked those players.  I'll bet the order is inverted.  Who's right?  You decide.

I feel like you contradicted yourself there. How can recruiting explain 75%
of success if it's possible to take walk-ons, who nobody recruited, and turn
them into championship-caliber starters? I realize you may have just picked
a number there, but I'm curious how you arrived at it.

I can see how Aaron might feel a contradiction, but it's not.

I didn't just pick a number but got it from my dad who was, among 
other things, a football coach and a student of the game. 
Furthermore, every time I heard the subject brought up in the company 
of other coaches they agreed. I've also heard the number as 80% and 
70%, for whatever that's worth.

No coach can build a successful team without players who have talent, 
tenacity, and dedication or, as some would say it, turn a sow's ear 
into a silk purse. Just can't be done. That's why the major schools 
compete fiercely for promising youngsters, even the best of whom 
represent a gamble and not always a good gamble. That's why a 
recruiting class of, say, 24 may dwindle to eight or 10 by the time 
it reaches senior status.

Not all walk-ons are created equal. Most major colleges don't 
encourage walk-ons and treat them from the get-go as inferiors, and 
as a result the quality of the walk-ons they reflects it. Nebraska, 
on the other hand, treats all its players equally, which encourages 
the better in-state athletes to walk on. These kids have deeply 
embedded loyalty to the Husker tradition and frequently they (and 
their parents) are willing to make the financial sacrifice. They 
train and play fanatically, seldom if ever quit, and push the 
scholarship athletes something fierce. As some scholarship guys quit, 
get hurt, get fed up, get homesick, can't play the game at the Big 
XII level, and leave the squad, the walk-ons remain, and many of them 
earn scholarships the hard way: waiting, working, putting in grunt 
time with lower-echelon tasks, and developing over a period of years 
into players. Matt O'Hanlon is a good example of this. Alex Henery, 
on the other hand, is a specialist so gifted that NU had no choice 
but to give him a scholarship - - after two years.

Grit and determination also constitute a form of talent.

I actually believe that someone read the HuskerList posts last week 
and showed them to him. Stranger things have happened.

As a Head Coach, Bo's still a work in progress. Like his players, 
he's improving.

I don't know if it's still the case, but during the Solich era there used 
to be a graduate assistant in the football office who followed the Husker 
List closely, along with other Husker-related sites.  Every now and then
I'd hear from him to correct some factual mis-statements on the List.

The real question is how many of those young players are on scholarship
(or hoping to get awarded one?)  Osborne always held back a scholarship
or two to award to a walk-on.  More than a few of those players went on
to become stars.

Subject: [Husker] FYI: Gabberts numbers look good, but......
Message-ID: <027801ca4205$b3e63a40$1bb2aec0$@net>

Gabbert has faced some pretty bad pass defenses
Illinois:
102nd D in Pass Eff.
90th in Total D
88th in Scoring D

Bowling Green:
72nd D in Pass Eff.
88th in Total D
82nd in Scoring D

Furman:
92nd D in Pass Eff.
90th in Total D
96th in Scoring D

Nevada:
120th D in Pass Eff.
112th in Total D
109th in Scoring D

Averages:
97th in Pass Eff.
94th in Total D
94th in Scoring D

Just something to keep in mind.  Plus, MU is like 17 points per game less
than they were last year at this point :)

Comparatively Lee:

Florida Atlantic:
112 in Pass Eff
111 in Total D
114 in Scoring D

Arkansas St:
104 in Pass Eff
68 in Total D
56 in Scoring D

Va Tech:

Comparatively Lee:

Averages:

Conclusion:
It actually looks like Gabbert and Lee are very similar vs inferior
opponents, and hopefully we'll do to Gabbert what V Tech was able to do to
Lee.  

On another note, neither team has faced a team that is as proficient as the
other, though I think our pass defense (or just defense in general) is MUCH
better than MUs.  I'd put our offenses on about the same level, IYAM.

I think if you look around the nation, you'll find a lot of special teams
players are walk-ons at their positions. It allows college programs to bring
talented specialists like long snappers, kickers, and punters in without
hurting the scholarship limit. If they're good enough, they earn one.

I did a lot of looking into the walk-on program for last year's "A Sea of
Red' yearbook. That key about pushing the scholarship players is a huge
factor in making the program a success. Every organization has tiers - if
you could take any one of those organizations and push the bottom tier
performance level up, the organization as a whole performs better. Call tech
support for your Mac or PC next time...... If that guy in tech support
doesn't believe he can move up in the organization, he's not going to do as
good a job if he doesn't.

I think the walk-on program has been hurt more by the financial problems
presented by paying for college than it has anything else. Look around the
state - of the top of my head, you'll probably see the Division II schools
are doing a lot better than they have in the past because of this.
