The ACC
yesterday, Boston College upset by Vandy for Vandy’s first bowl win since 1955, then last night, GA Tech got destroyed 38-3 by LSU.
This doesn’t look good for the ACC.
Go Big Red Nebraska!

New Year's Resolution #1
- watch as little of Lou Holtz as possible. Seriously, right now, instead of watching that crapbasket at halftime we find other things… like right now – the Rose Bowl parade is much better viewing than the ESPN talking heads.
Go Big Red Nebraska!

holy cow
I forgot to do predictions with Mike.
Well…. I’m picking Nebraska 35, Clemson 21.
Anyone else?

Block C Preview
Clemson site Block C did a preview of the game.
Willy Mac: I’ve stated before that Nebraska is highly touted to the point where it’s almost completely annoying. I think Nebraska is good, but they’re not good enough. Sobriety and media outlets telling me what I need to think (RE: Alabama vs. Clemson), I really do think that Clemson has enough athletes to hold them to a certain amount of points and run right by them when they need to. Nebraska is not impressive on film and they run like they have brick feet. It’s going to be a scoring contest for sure, but we blow by them in the end.
Clemson 42, Nebraska 35

wow
they’re doing a good job of stacking up our offensive line.
but…. we knew we can’t drive block worth a damn. this is probably still part of a set of scripted plays.
So…. we’ll see what happens.

our defense doesn't sub?
that’s only because the Big 12 ran so much no-huddle. they’re looking at stats, not having a clue as to what they’re talking about.

they're
doing a damn good job of stuffing up our offense.
we’re going to have to get off some plays to offset the pressure.
this shows how slow our offensive line is at getting off the ball quickly.
Go Big Red Nebraska!
Our Cobs Are Bigger Than Yours!
Corn Nation!
okay
I assume we took at timeout.
that leaves none for the second quarter.
Go Big Red Nebraska!
Our Cobs Are Bigger Than Yours!
Corn Nation!
we're going
to have to go deep on the next possesion and complete something to lighten up them bringing up the pressure.
3 of 9 for Ganz so far.
Go Big Red Nebraska!
Our Cobs Are Bigger Than Yours!
Corn Nation!
look
we can’t tackle on that punt return…. to the 50, great return by Spiller. hope it wore him out.
he got hit a little late there too, but no call.
Go Big Red Nebraska!
Our Cobs Are Bigger Than Yours!
Corn Nation!
wow
We’re going to have to play a lot better if we expect to win this game.
it’s not like their offense is kicking our ass. but… we’re not staying on the field on offense.
Go Big Red Nebraska!
Our Cobs Are Bigger Than Yours!
Corn Nation!
crap
we’re going to get encroachment/offsides for first down for Clempson.
pooop

Are we that slow?
nu looks a step behind

again, our line looks like crap on offense.

wow
we have the “non-tackling” problem again. we must get out of this drive…… it started with the punt return.

late freaking call...

oh crap
you’re right.
plus, they tend to call heavy hitting… as in “hitting too hard”

after all that, Clemson gets nothing!
well, except good field position. :)

~Wanko the Sane
OK... Now let's regroup...
Watson needs to spread the field more; gotta get some more room to operate. Thenarse needs work on his tackling; quit trying to make the big hit.
Murillo is playing like it’s his final game. Excellent first quarter!
Love the auto update
very nice feature

Spread look good...
…but not throwing the ball on first down downfield is bad. We keep getting ourselves into 2nd and long by not showing something else on first down.
I love the idea of a "Winter Classic"...
…I hate the idea of playing it on New Year’s Day surrounded by bowl games.
Play it on Super Bowl Sunday…
Catch the ball

Bad punt on that one

That was Jacoby Ford on that punt return...
…C.J. Spiller was the return guy on that twisting return that made the Blackshirts look like the Cosgrove Kops….
So can we get someone to work on the coverage teams
in the off season?

once thing about this game…. there’s a lot of hitting going on by both teams.

We got lucky...
…in the game…lucky to get the play off without a penalty…lucky that wasn’t picked up.
Hopefully Ganz can fight that ankle injury off…

that was bad.
we need to get these plays off more quickly. great job by Clemson.
Go Big Red Nebraska!
Our Cobs Are Bigger Than Yours!

goes back
to that thing about Joe – mistakes when under pressure.
but I suppose thre’s a lot of QB’s that you could say that about – nothing unique – but in a game like this…..

Two offensive mistakes by Ganz...
…cost the Huskers 14 points. I think the defense is playing fine, but Watson needs to figure something different for the 2nd half…
like have the Oline block?
You can't possibly be a scientist if you mind people thinking that you're a fool.
~Wanko the Sane
well
let’s be honest, our offensive line hasn’t run-blocked very well all season.
I’m not sure – other than better execution. their defense is fast, and they’re playing well, so hell….. other than Castille, we really don’t have an answer right now.
Go Big Red Nebraska!
Our Cobs Are Bigger Than Yours!

Still I'm putting this on Watson
At least not all of it
How will Ganz respond becomes the question.

get out of the half and go on with the second.
Go Big Red Nebraska!

Well
the defense has played great.
Clemson will look to pound the ball in the second half, I think NU can force their QB into some mistakes.

likely
although who can tell… we have Witt, Lee, redshirt Spano – so it’ll be up in the air.

Pac 10 refs probably wanted to make sure they got this call right...
…they’ve been burned badly in the past on review muckups…
i was wearing
my Eric Crouch jersey for the first half until mrs CN said to change it to my Chad Kelsay jersey.
I asked Mrs CN if I should change back… she says no.

Spiller got pushed out of bounds..
…Lawrence gave him a little shove, then Spiller threw the ball at Lawrence… 15 yard unsportsmanlike conduct…
wow
that’s a little ticky tack, but i guess…..
you think? 3rd and 24.
Go Big Red Nebraska!
Our Cobs Are Bigger Than Yours!

will Ganz come back
I doubt it.
i’m guessing he’s concussed.
Go Big Red Nebraska!
Our Cobs Are Bigger Than Yours!

The Clempson defense is going to really play the running backs...
…figuring that NU is not going to risk Ganz…
Peterson and Swift
great downfield blocking.
Go Big Red Nebraska!
Our Cobs Are Bigger Than Yours!

Ganz
wisely did not throw the wide ball
Go Big Red Nebraska!
Our Cobs Are Bigger Than Yours!

good point
you don’t gamble, do you? :)
Go Big Red Nebraska!
Our Cobs Are Bigger Than Yours!
Corn Nation!
Not much...
…but when you’ve got control of the game and Clemson’s got it’s points off of your miscuse, no sense risking another….
yeah
they do.
after i did that article, i wondered if it was all smoke and ACC, but it’s clearly not.

one on one tackle by Murrillllooooooo
Go Big Red Nebraska!
Our Cobs Are Bigger Than Yours!

Clemson's receivers do an excellent job of leaning..
..to get an extra yard or two after the tackle.
Swift
wow we’re going to miss him.
Go Big Red Nebraska!
Our Cobs Are Bigger Than Yours!
Corn Nation!

i’ll go with that.
i made a new year’s resolution that we’d win this game.

what a great game
I didn’t think it would be quite this close, but this is a nice win for Bo Pelini
Go Big Red Nebraska!
Our Cobs Are Bigger Than Yours!
Corn Nation!
Where does this put us?
What are your thoughts on final ranking?
oh man
what, you missed the part where i’m going to the hospital?
rankings matter not.
9-4 – Bo Pelini is 2-0 in bowl games, although he’s also trying to kill me, but that’s what I’m thinking.
that shot at the end there…. with Pelini’s happiness, and Dabo with his head down. that’s all about now, man! WHHHHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOEEEEEEEEEEEE
