My first game thread this year. Was at parties for ArkSt and Rutgers and attended OU and NoIl. Feels good to sit here in my recliner and pass judgement.

 

[DerHusker]

D-FENCE!!!!

 

[ThereIsNoPlace]

Wow, I can't get a word in edgewise in this thread. Don't everyone post at once.

 

[Husker.Wed.]

Creeps me out they keep talking about Crouch.

 

[headcard]

They almost took the handoff on our first play, yikes.

 

[newAD]

Run the damn ball. Oh wait.

 

[redfanusa]

Didn't look like targeting to me. Jeez, what is a defender supposed to do when the ball carrier goes low?

 

[DerHusker]

LET'S GO HUSKERS!!!!!

I usually don't like targeting, but you have you get your head up.

 

[newAD]

That throw scared me.

 

[Iguana775]

Catch the damn ball

 

[DerHusker]

WILBON!!!

 

[redfanusa]

Receivers wearing butter gloves is a mistake.

Nice 10 yard run by Wilbon.

 

[headcard]

Decker struggles with gun snaps.

 

[DerHusker]

DPE!!!!

TOUCH DOWN!!!!!!!

 

[newAD]

Run the damn ball I said. Oh wait.

 

[bigbadjim990]

Good Job Huskers!!!!

 

[redfanusa]

Complain about Pierson-El, he goes for 50 yards. Very nice throw by Lee.

 

[Cisco Red]

A couple of drops but Lee was on target that drive.

 

[headcard]

Hell yeah!!!! TD!!!!!!!

 

[Husker.Wed.]

If they keep loading the box the middle will be open like that all night.

 

[TwinsRRUs]

Didn't someone say something about Nebraska finding their identity last week in the run game?

I guess Langs didn't get the memo... plenty of passes... he will never change.

I just hope TLee keeps throwing to our team only.

 

[StrongArm517]

Would love to see Lee get it together tonight

Seriously? That was the definition of targeting. He lead with his helmet, that's going to be called everytime. I don't think there was any malicious intent, but still pretty much the definition of targeting. I said targeting as soon as I saw the hit, and replay confirmed what I thought I saw live.

Illini coaches apparently need to coach up their kids on not lowering their heads. Can't have a guy get ejected who is in for a guy missing a half for getting ejected.

D-FENCE!!!!!

 

[Iguana775]

Lee still throws off his back leg. He'll get picked off if he's not more careful.

They do seem to be loading the box just a tad. Make them pay for it.

Did you see how loaded the box was?

You do realize on that 3rd and 4 they had 10 men on the line and a high safety.

 

[Husker.Wed.]

Damn, if Lee turns around he could have picked that

Details, details.

 

[jeans15]

Can't blame the coaches for that.

 

[TwinsRRUs]

Sorry, my comment wasn't for a specific play, but for the play calls in general.

No, I am not a run the damn ball guy...

 

[DerHusker]

STOP THEM!!!

 

[c2o]

Keys to the game:
Illinios- Make Lee throw the ball.
Maybe he'll throw it to you.

 

[redfanusa]

Why don't we have a defender within 30 feet of a receiver on a screen?

 

[headcard]

Come on Jackson, tackle.

 

[hddude55]

Wow, the next two weeks will be fun. Melvin Gordon may try to sneak in.

 

[cubsker]

not sure how you end up with your nearest defender 15 yds from a wr at the los
