[Husker] More analysis....

I truly think the players got themselves too 'up' for the game.  I know that
sounds weird, but when you lay too much importance on one game it can come
back to bite you.

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?

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.
