[Husker] A couple penalty calls

[RJ Wessel]

They were different calls and yes he did clip on that one play, he went low from behind the other player and hit his legs. that play was run wide to the left.

The other play was just a straight up block that the official probably saw late and said they are both in contact , call the chop block.
