T1B

Nebraska has been penalized 70 times.

opponents: 46.

could be a conspiracy for those free-thinking, fair-minded, and awesome football loving Huskers....or:

could just be that Bo's team commits more penalties than other teams. especially the teams they play. Nothing in Bo's controlled, stoic personality would suggest that NU ever plays out of control. I think you have to acknowledge that there's no question Dan Beebe must be to blame for all of NU's false starts and illegal formations in one of the more hostile BTPCF environs (when they are winning and a ranked team is in town)....it's pure conspiracy.

I read elsewhere some Husker fans already staging their excuses for the 2011 season...something to the effect of the schedule is intentionally difficult so they don't "show up" the rest of the conference in their first year.

Why whine reactively when you can be proactive?

That's a load of crap. Obviously Nebraska is getting jobbed by the refs.

How could a team coached by this guy lack discipline and self control.....??

or incessantly.

the creepy thing is they expect some empathy or something. they have an assistant coach who nails booster's wives and could plausibly be sued for assault...a head coach who made a complete ass of himself on national TV for not the first time (and remembering Bill Callahan's repeated PR gaffs and bad sportsmanship against Oklahoma--the throatslash, which i thought was blown out of proportion.....but BC does "hillbilly" on OU and an OU ref/nek does go to the hospital courtesy of a Nebraska football player bumrushing him in warmups....never mind the repeated felon Christian Brothers or L. Peters).....but they are innocent as babies. everyone is out to get Nebraska. they are about pride, the winning. sportsmanship.

program is an ideological lie that only the True Believers and Tom Shatel and Lee Barknecht (the "we are getting punished") opinion makers for the husker homer board "stay on message" sheep.

it's got to the point where it's hilariously impossible for NU fan to not be a parody of itself. it's not just here, they stay on message like Shawn Hannity on every homer board you read....ATM, CU, KSU....looking for love.

You guys are so right. We should just take our medicine and shut up. Gotcha. Like I said earlier, enjoy your corrupt conference next year.

since this is what you keep posting....over and over and over:

let's get this straight: you believe that the Big XII conference has been punishing Nebraska unfairly in an intentional way through the mediation of officials for on the field of play since last year's Big XII Championship game until last weekend's game in College Station because you, and only Nebraska, had the balls to stand up to Texas in TV negotiations. and probably further into the next Big XII Championship Game.

this is what are saying. that referees who call NU games (against ISU, ATM) are unfairly and selectively calling penalties on Nebraska as part of a conference-wide conspiracy to keep NU out of a BCS bowl. you have posted as much.

yes or no.

simple question.

It's not a simple question. Your question had multiple parts.

yes or no.

simple question.

Do I think they got a decree from the Big 12 to keep us out of the championship game? No. Do I think emotion is involved in this? Yes. Do I think NU doesn't get the benefit of a fair call because they are leaving? Yes.

so it's one emotional crew that's out to get Nebraska.....not Beebe.

to at least be fair to the Husker honks who post on this board, seems to me that only H4 has gone completely off the deep end with the corrupt conspiracy theories. well, cornhusker would probly be going off as well, but he's likely already locked up in a padded room somewhere off I-80.

Danimal and At Large have always seemed fairly level headed. Good dudes, I'm sure.

But I ain't mad at any of them. Mostly we just come here to trade good natured barbs, prop our team when they do well, and just generally shoot the shit. Whatever happens on gameday, this too shall pass.

I hope Pelini can chill out and set a good example for those young bucks on his team, and to stop disrespecting the university he represents.


But I also hope he doesn't and continues flipping out. If they make it to the title game (90% chance), I hope the refs do give the Huskers the shaft. Not out of spite to the team or university or players, just so I can see Pelini's biggest melt to date. Although the team will take the wrath as a grown man opts to bully his charges around.

I hope Pelini can chill out and set a good example for those young bucks on his team, and to stop disrespecting the university he represents.

But this is who Bo Pelini is. This is who he ALWAYS has been. That's why Nebraska didn't hire him the first time around. When you hire Bo Pelini, you know what you're getting. He's a good coach for sure, but the guy is a few screws loose. He will never change. That's what he is, that's what he'll always be.

He's said it won't happen again. Tom Osborne released the following statement.

Bo and his staff have done some very fine things in the three years he has been at Nebraska. The players have done very well academically, the off-the-field behavior has improved considerably and team chemistry, and unity of purpose have been exceptional. Our team has been well-prepared and played with intensity every week. Bo and his staff have turned the football program in a very positive direction.

“It is important that people maintain a sense of perspective and balance concerning the football program in view of the events of last Saturday. Bo has indicated that events such as those will not happen again. I take him at his word, and agree that it is very important that going forward we do not see a recurrence.

Translation: I have talked to Bo about this and if it happens again, it'll be the last thing he does here.

Bo might have been given a copy of one of Tom's books, or he should. Tom mentions poise a lot in the books. I'm sure it might be something they talked about Sunday and Monday. Now it's still up in the air as to whether the "not again" is the yelling at the refs or the Taylor Martinez incident.


As for the earlier question about that particular crew of officials, I would say "Yes" it's a problem with this crew. I don't know why, but maybe it's because they don't appreciate Bo's antics on the sidelines. I was wondering if they were mad because work for the Big 12 crews will be going down by 16 games next year, which either means layoffs of two crews or a spreading of the crews so they work less. I don't know, but it's always this crew that drives Bo insane and it's always this crew where the ratio of penalties is so skewed.

First off, let's get your numbers straight:

In 2010, NU has had 86 penalties for 797 yards; opponents had 48 penalties for 420 yards.

Nebraska plays aggressively and will logically have more penalties than their opponents. This years numbers aren't too much out of trend from the past two years. What makes things more controversial this year seems to be:

1. Opponents have been flagged a LOT LESS often.
2. Average yard per penalty is higher than in the past. More penalties seem to be of the judgment call variety (pass interference, personal fouls), as opposed to illegal procedure, offsides, etc.

Again, what an embarassment to college football.


The biggest indictment? The Ref WATCHES the play, doesn't throw, or even REACH, looks downfield, THEN throws the flag. Look at the 1:00 mark. Every time roughing is called, the dude is seen reaching when the hit happens...every single time. Generally the flag is on the ground , near the hit, while the guys are still laying there.

Wow.

When you watch the progression of what the referee was looking at and when he threw the flag, it looks very, very bad. It's looks dirty. Particularly based on the horrible nature of the call, it appears that ref only threw the flag after he saw A&M's critical 3rd down pass had fallen incomplete.

A&M was going to get a first down out of that play...it was just a question of how


C'mon fellas....you all know the game and you know what you've witnessed. Is this right? Is this good for the game? The game we all love? Yea...I continue to melt though I'm trying to move on. I have paranoia over what might transpire this week against CU and in the CCG should we make it.

That makes absolutely no sense. Are you backpedaling from the doctored numbers you threw up?

you are insane. i posted numbers from yahoo box scores from every NU game not including ATM. the latter, you claimed, was a revenge job by officials for Holy Nebraska leaving the Big XII. i pointed out that NU has been significantly penalized more than it's opponents in it's other games....in addition to the ATM game. it's called a "comparison" or "using actual data" to make or refute a claim. It was predictable you would try and use those actual statistics to simultaneously claim that 1. NU is persecuted by all the officials in the Big XII for being so Holy and leaving the rest of us Texas BSHers....AND that 2. NU plays aggressively because Bo Pelini and his scumbag brother have 14 inch cocks, so they get penalized more. you probably don't even get the fact that the two are contradictory....you like Bill Favor....truth is what you agree with.

who's troll are you? No one is this dumb.

subtract 16 from NU's 86 penalties and 2 from opponents...i think you'll see that those are the exact "doctored" stats i posted.

70; 46. moron.

surely someone is winding me up here.....if so, bravo.

It's not you. H4E is that big of an idiot. He has my vote for 2010 BOtY.

~shudder~ bitch, I've been coming to these boards since '97. It's where I go to talk BTPCF. If you think I've melted, consider yourself lucky Shaz ain't around these parts anymore.

Now did you conveniently ignore the above video? Did you watch it? Will you concede your Aggies got that game handed to them? on a silver platter? Was that video just too REAL for you? It's just another shit call in a season long jobbing by the SWC part II. Enjoy your shit, corrupt conference and status as a Tejas underling. I think deep down inside "in places you don't talk about at parties" you enjoy it.

You are dumber than a bag of rusty hammers. You are living proof of the dumbness you deny exists. The other games NU has been "significantly penalized more than it's opponents" all happen to be Big 12 contests which lends more credibility to my allegations. Thanks for playing and keep your homo-erotic visions of 14 inch Pelini cocks to yourself, Freddie Mercury.
