(Non) Touchdown before the half

[HuskerO]

I'm sure it was discussed in the first half game thread, but I don't want to look for it.

When reviewing Ervin's run that ended up being short to the goaline, how was that call not changed to a TD?

Neither knee, hip, elbow, etc hit the turf before the ball broke the plane. Am I missing something?

they didn't even stop to look at it.

Just a bad missed call. There were a few of those.

Still, huskers continue to step on their own dicks.

True, but getting that easy call corrected changes everything.

No doubt. I remain surprised that didn't get overturned.

 

[oldjar07]

The only plausible explanation for why they didn't overturn it is because the camera angle wasn't directly lined up with the plane of the goal line. Which begs the question why the camera wasn't lined up with the goalline in the first place? Still thought it was clear enough they should have overturned it.

Every call was met with a confused and babbling head judge. They didn't seem sure of anything. Hopefully we won't see them again.
They were great tacklers...speaking of their offensive line. I saw one of our DL get mugged and wrestled to the ground and pinned...all with a ref standing within a few feet watching the whole thing. Didn't even blink an eye.
On the flipside, we crawled up the backs and pinned the arms of their recievers several times. No calls.

I thought it was a TD when the play happened. On TV I figured he broke the plain. The replay shows no part of his body had touched the ground yet. He had control of the ball. No whistle yet. Elbow down at the same time he broke the white line with end of ball....TD. Nope.....why ? I need it explained to me refs. It met all the criteria of a successful TD as far as I understand it. I can't wait for the day a laser system is installed to counter crooked officials.

Go back and watch there LT jump before the ball is snapped on their TD drive.

This was a bad miss, especially considering they saw our false starts that were barely more than a flinch.

Of course, that missed call didn't cost us the game.

Older fans/refs hate the Huskers and love to see them lose ... it is true! Younger fans etc. don't care because they don't remember TF and LP and all the beatdowns.

That was strange. I didn't think much of it because I assumed we would punch it in.

He did this the whole game. They didn’t call it just like they don’t in the nfl.

And yet we will just keep telling ourselves how darn lucky we are to be in this conference.

Dude false started all night gettting an advantage in pass blocking.

I hate this league.

 

[SomedayHusker]

So we basically won this game, refs gave it to Minnesota. This happens way too often.

I'm not blaming them but they played a part . We don't need any help beating ourselves.

Obviously the turnovers were terrible but you can’t tell me we lose that game if that is called correctly and we score before the half. Absolutely an outcome altering call.

It’s called big 10 cooking

I can't argue it was game changing....welcome to Nebraska football .

They did not confirm it. They said it stands. I don’t know how they thought they didn’t have enough evidence. IF all scoring plays are still reviewed the dumbasses on the field should have signaled a TD Then the replay guy could overturn it if need be with the clock stopped.

I hate when people do this. Same frickin difference, you know what I meant.

well there IS in fact a difference. It meant they didn’t think they had a view to overturn it. Sorry if that offends you. They blew it on the field AND in the booth. It would be interesting to know who the replay ref was. Confirmed means the call was no doubt correct

The puzzling thing was they decided to review the play after the false start? and I just answered my question f they call for a review before the false start it saves Nebraska a time out

Supposedly they’re trying to speed up reviews. The replay guy should have buzzed down but we went hurry up to run the sneak.

I know it's different, but you knew exactly what I meant (they didnt think they had enough to overturn the original call). "Stands". "Confirmed". End result is the same which isn't different.

I'm not offended, just annoyed at people who do that.

They said it stands. So no, they didn't confirm it was short, just that they didn't have enough evidence to overturn it. Small verbage difference, same outcome, but very different.

Right, same outcome = very different. Haha!

I've been on this board for 17 years. I've been alright here.

Does it matter? Whether they say "stands" or "confirmed" the outcome is the same.

Pretty sure you too, understood what I was saying even though I was technically incorrect with the verbage.
