Gator Bowl.. AAAAARGH

Post by Danimal »

Our D is playing respectably, especially considering we have a couple walk-ons playing a bunch.

Our O is GIVING AWAY THE FREAKING GAME. Ya Clemson has a quality D and they're the more talented team but GEEZ. Ganz is pulling a Taylor(at this point), going-out with crappy play. How do you throw that pick before halftime? At worst we should've gotten a fieldgoal. Our O is actually negative in points for the half, NEGATIVE. We better come-up with something in the second half. Our D can only hold for so-long and the dam will break, then things could get real ugly.

More like the Clemson D is taking it. Too much pressure on a hobbled QB and no running game to speak of.

The Corn is getting shucked.

Helluva' football game, one of the best of the season thus far.

Rack the Corn for manning up and playing with heart and desire. They looked over-matched in that 1st half.

Really needed to punch that last one in to seal the deal.

Holy crap.

That was great comeback. I think it really helped that we had two legit coordinators adjusting at the half and Clemson had two position-coaches that got promoted.

I'm really proud of our D. All three Clemson scores came off of turnovers. We aren't the blackshirts of old but we are way better than the trainwreck we saw last year.

Not being able to come-through on those scoring opportunities had me worried.

Congrats to Nebraska, I look forward to you guys making a comeback as a national power. You ain't there yet but it sure looks like your moving in the right direction.

Nice win for your Huskers. Pelini was the right hire.

Big XII North 3-0 in Bowl games. Maybe the South will start pulling their weight here. :D

Next year should be interesting.

Kansas has Reesing, Briscoe, and Meier coming back. I think they'll be the favorite.

Next year will be fun and I agree with the KU prediction, however I really question how they'll be defensively. I think they'll lose a couple due to that alone.

NU will be much better on "D". Especially if Suh comes back.
Pelini redshirted the whole flippin class (52 guys including walk-ons) from last years freshmen with the exception of 2 contributors. Neither one a clear cut difference maker this season however I believe Dennard will be in the future.
NU played with little to no LB play this year, they'll be young next fall at that position, but very talented.
The best rush end (Barry Turner) was lost for the season in game 1. He returns.
To get 9 wins with 4-6 walk-ons playing defense much of the time was a gamble for the future. It paid off if you can withstand 2 ass kickings I guess. The Natives seem pretty happy tonight.

We gotta visit Lawrence, Columbia, and Boulder next season. Should be interesting. Will probably roadie down to Lawrence.

I think Neb should be pretty salty if we can get solid qb-play. But with a newbie at qb that is a considerable if. We had a back-up in one play today and it could've cost us the game. Thank the Lord for instant replay.

What Dan, no trip to Boulder to enjoy the urine bombs, un-imaginable verbal abuse, and keyed auto? Plus you can enjoy seeing Fartsom Field be covered with trash mid 4th quarter.
