Of all the games we have lost...

[huskerfan1414]

Of all the games we have lost over the years, in all the painful ways, this game tops them all as the most unbelievable, terrible loss I have ever witnessed.

Iowa had one good play the entire game, literally one. They had five first downs! We more than doubled their offensive output. We moved the ball up and down the field on them.

To beat Iowa, you don't have to do anything good. Just don't mess up. And that's what we do.

I would love it if in Iowa's coaches office on the white board, the game plan is literally "Wait for Nebraska to screw up."

We've had all year to fix special teams. Haven't done it. Matt Rhule clock management sucks again. Sorry, Matt, we don't pay you 8 million dollars a year to say "My bad" when you screw up the clock.

 

[Rocky Mtn Husker]

Think about that for a second. 8 million dollars. And you are a complete moron. Wow.

 

[bama_husker]

Two good offense plays. Johnson's longest run set up the muffed punt near the goal line.

Pathetic OC and ST coach, PERIOD

Big time hold of hartzog on that play

 

[HuskerMania257460]

It’s up there in our more disappointing games. Our defense absolutely owned them tonight and we let them down in every other phase.

Plenty of “ifs”… Don’t fumble at the goal line, we win. Neyor makes a simple grab, puts us in position to seal it. Raiola doesn’t fumble we have a good chance in OT.

Endless opportunities to put that game away. If you let a team like Iowa hang around, they’ll make you pay for it. Disappointing game, yet again

I can't really muster the give-a-fux anymore. It's just another loss on a list of dozens and dozens. Outside of beating the worst Wisconsin team in decades there really wasn't any reason to think we'd win this game. Shame on us for thinking this time would be different.

There's no doubt that Iowa (and other Big 10 rivals) has had that mantra for years-- Wait. Just wait. Nebraska is going to give the game away and we just need to be ready to take it.

This year was a lot like last year. We have the ball late. Last year it was an interception. This year a sack & fumble. They do a nice job of stepping up and making plays when it matters the most. And they killed us again on special teams.

Raiola should have never been in that situation to fumble.

The glaring special teams issues should have been fixed weeks ago. But not.

 

[BigRedTed]

We've had some bad losses over the years. But this one is going to sting for awhile for me. 5 first downs give up and we lose. To Iowa of all teams.

You are correct.

But this year is way worse than last year. Iowa at least looked sort of competent last year.

Was going to wait until tomorrow to post something similar due to letting the emotion pass, but I agree, of all the bonehead losses, including the onside kick in Ireland, this was one of the worst, if not the worst. And it is so simple to fix this - get a ****ing special teams coach.

 

[Chuck003]

Everyone knew that we would fumble it and give them the chance to win. Not surprised. It's kind of funny if you think about it. Almost as funny as hiring a .500 coach to turn around a program.

 

[Dean Pope]

On a side note: I think the cold weather hurt us tonight as well as the fact that this was a road game. We've got a couple players who seem to have folded under pressure and/or the cold.

I can't really argue with you, I just don't know who else we should've hired.

 

[RedBaloneyPony]

It all sucks but Raiola plays like a loof, hang on to the ball

 

[dinglefritz]

Big time hold of hartzog on that play

Refs were literally letting Iowa’s DBs tackle our receivers long before the ball got there. No flags.

It's not unbelievable I called it at half as the momentum turned ...walk of field goal....rhule was ok with that

But true

 

[Meanfarmer3160]

Me either ....maybe the very best D2 coach who likes coaching more than hookers and blow

 

[huskerfan1414]

Iowa had a lot of good plays but they were all on defense besides one Caleb Johnsons big play.

stop.

Nebraska had bad plays.

 

[B1G RED RULES]

It’s difficult to express in words how disappointing this year has been. Yeah, we made it to a bowl game - but as the Iowa troll accurately pointed out, Kansas, KState, Iowa State, Minnesota, and most other hapless programs make bowl games.

 

[Muskyhunter16]

To beat Iowa, especially in their building, you have to play a nearly flawless game or have superior athletes. We didn’t/don’t have either, that’s it

 

[Walleye79]

This season was another failed season. Failed by coaches and players. Going to a worthless bowl as a 6 win game is not progress. Glad it’s over.

 

[The_Man_Behind_The_Man]

It sucks because we are a sh1tty team that can’t EVER beat another sh1tty team!
