OK...I DVR'd the NU-Texas fiasco and I replayed it frame by frame.  The rule 
states...that the ball must hit a railing or the ground before the clock 
will stop.  Well...if you look carefully, it was kicked off the heel of a 
man walking on the sidelines.  It then bounces on a rail, but by that time 
the clock was at zero.

I produced TV for 23 years and slowed down the video frame by frame.  THAT 
is the conference refs stepping to save the BCS $$$$ not a fair game, 
period.  Oh, by the way...what the heck were you looking at?   That's why we 
think we got jobbed...because we did.

Where has that famous Nebraska class gone to? Yeah, we've had a rough go of 
it for awhile. Been mistreated a little, been beat up a little, and gotten a 
little unlucky a few times recently. Why am I constantly reading or hearing 
fanatical complaining coming from the only solid group of people left in the 
entire nation.

That 1 Second Thing: I've watched the replay of the infamous Conference 
Championship game from last year, and I see the ball hit out of bounds, and 
the clock still says 1 second remaining. Why then do I still read about how 
Nebraska had the game stolen from them by putting 1 second back on the 
clock? How red are your glasses not to see the 1 on the clock when the ball 
hits the ground?

I wanted Nebraska to win that game as badly as any one of you. I've been 
going to games since 1967 and there is no doubt about my loyalty. But what 
is with all this complaining?

Kick the ball off in bounds, cover the return, and we probably win. 
Constantly saying we got robbed because of 1 second being put back on the 
clock is not only not classy, it makes us look small, and doesn't play very 
well anywhere other than maybe a couple of downtown Lincoln bars. C'mon 
people, your smarter than that.
