Skylar, 
 
Great analysis. And your last sentence is what makes playing Texas so darn 
scary! We always seem to make mistakes, bad decisions, get the calls that go the 
other team's way against Texas (and formerly against Oklahoma). 

 
Is that because the coaches and team are "tight" - as in anxious, uptight, let 
it get under our skin? Or is there something else I'm missing?

Subject: [Husker] More analysis....

Going through it even more, here's some details about what happened yesterday.



1)  Costly turnover (7 points at least)
Roy's fumble gave them 1 of their 2 cheap TDs.

2)  Bad mistakes on offense (28 points)
Burkhead's drop and Kinnie's drops were the worse, but what Niles lacked in 
quality he more than made up for in quantity.  


3) Poor officiating (14 points+ IMO)
Bad facemask call kept the long TD drive alive.  Horrible missed DPI call with 
Niles could have resulted in points.  Not out of bounds Kyler Reed, who knows.  
Bad DPI on Prince with a ball thrown way over the receiver's head.  There were 
more, but those were the biggest imo.

Any one of those 3 go away and it's anybody's game.  All 3 go away and it's a 
rout.  What makes it feel sooooooooo horrible is that this 'miracle' happened 
against a team that always seems to get this from us.
