Daniels facemask on Corbin I felt like change the game. Was it illegal? Was it wrong? Yes, we got flagged for it. But It showed a little nasty on D. And also messed up there flow right on their drive right after that. What’d they get after that on that drive? 2 yards and it gave us the ball with a chance to lead vs trying to match a TD from them. Lovie had to know they could have ran it to the right all day on us. Hard to do that down in the 4th Q
I'd like to see an aerial shot of that play. It seemed like the facemask stopped a much bigger gain. I don't think you'd coach that, but it may have actually been a huge difference in the outcome.
If you want to see how to turn a 56-14 romp into a nail-biter, watch the 2019 Nebraska-Illinois game.
It was a great play by Daniels. No doubt it was going to be a huge run if he doesn't grab that guy's facemask. I think Cam Taylor even came up to him and let him know it was probably a good penalty.
WOW! Some damn sloppy football, along with a few horrendous calls, but the team never gave up and fought their way back. GBR, and thanks for not ripping my heart out at the end. Congrats Husker, you showed some grit!
possibly the biggest play of the game given the score and the situation. How'd @HuskerFBNation get in position to score?With this soft-handed play by the big fella Stoll. 💪#BTNStandout x @AutoOwnersIns pic.twitter.com/X6b4V0ogNE— Nebraska On BTN (@NebraskaOnBTN) September 22, 2019
Another positive outcome of that facemask penalty was, after that, Corbin seemed to quit crying for a flag every time someone tackled him. Kind of like "you've been crying for it for 3 quarters, here you go!"
Defense only gave up 298 total yards I’ll take that any game, the offense needs to clean up the fumbles
