PrintMichigan leads 17-10.
They've held the ball 21 minutes of the first half. They're converting most of their third downs.
After all that, Nebraska is only down seven. That's not so bad so keep the faith!

Good tackling today.
At least that bug-a-boo isn’t there. Just need to stop shooting ourselves in the foot with penalties and drops.

Wow, Wisconsin
After they played us, you would have thought they were going to be in the NC game. What a let-down for them.
"Not the victory but the action; Not the goal but the game;
In the deed the glory"
GO BIG RED!
The good news
As far as I can remember, Wisconsin is the only game out of 10 so far that our offense didn’t get its shit together in the second half.

I take issue with their lack of them. They should have about 5 for 40.

We're lucky to be in this game...
…but some of that is due to the horrific refing. Nebraska 4 penalties for 37 yards, Michigan only one called for 5 yards.
Offensive line is getting destroyed for the most part. Defense is ok, but they need help and calls to stop going against them.
not sure if anyone else has mentioned this but...

And unfair
The cupboard doesn’t get more empty than it was at Kansas when Gill got there. Imo in a situation like that, the coach should get at least 4 years pretty much no matter what, performance on the field-wise.

So I just tried poking fun...

“oh yeah well.. we are just all so worn out from playing real games all the time”
call it what you want babe
Rex Burkhead with 4 yards rushing in the 1st half
4 yards. Somehow we have 10 points. I wonder when the last time we had more points at half or in a game than Rex Burkhead had yards rushing.
Look me up on youtube sometime...if you're really bored.
Hopefully he picks it up in the first half
Our offensive line looks lame out there today. Hopefully this halftime the coaches remind the team what they’re probably playing for today. Because of our little derp against jNW, this is more or less our play in game for the BCS. We MUST win those battles in the trenches in the second half.

After that fake
I’m officially on the Fuck Michigan bandwagon.

They are just trying to win the game.
A TD is better than a FG.
Yeah, uh huh
If there’s less than a 4 pt spread at the end of the game, I’ll consider recinding. But the way this game is going, there’s no need for that fake.
Disagree
it was only a 14 point lead at the time. Nebraska is more than capable of putting up 2 tds quickly. Hoke decided he would rather have a 21 point lead than a 17. Also, Mich kicking game hasn’t been very good this year. It wasn’t really poor sportsmanship.
Nebraska should adopt Wisconsins Policy

We had basically pathetic Offenses,and really good Defense. Now we have what i would rate Medeocre Offense,and the D has no rush,can’t stop rushing qb’s. Really,i feel this year Nebraska has regressed. It would be understandable if it weren’t 80 % fixable that just isn’t getting done.

It should've been running
I don’t care if he was in a vulnerable position, it wasn’t enough to knock him off his feet. It wasn’t even a good flop by the Michigan punter.

So, our guy damn near gets his leg snapped between two Wolverines, nothing
Their guy barely gets touched, and it’s a 15 yarder “Roughing” call.
well he dropped it so it was fair game to kill him

Just pointing out the definition of "roughing".
Hitting a guy hard, vs. barely touching an actor
difference
was they got a piece of the ball

Is that true? I thought it was ok because he got the ball.

I don't know (or really care) what the rule is
If he has the ball, hit him. If he kicks it and his leg is in the air, it should be running or roughing (their hit should have been roughing).
defense
is just tired.
can’t make tackles.

What are YOU smoking?
Or are you an Oregon fan?
I realize that we've done plenty to help UM along the way
But counting the way the refs have screwed us so far:
First NU drive: uncalled DPI on 3rd down.
Second UM drive: extended because of uncalled OPI on third down.
Second NU drive: ended because of uncalled DPI on third down
Some other Michigan TD drive: minimal contact DPI on NU to extend drive on third down.
Latest Michigan drive: weak roughing the kicker penalty to extend another Michigan drive.
I’m sure I’m missing some but this has kind of been like a fog all day.

Of course Denard is having the game of his season
Its seems we are the team for that to happen for any mobile QBs.
There is still Iowa!
Beating up on them will be a nice consolation prize and really the only thing I am looking forward to the rest of this season.
I don't even really care about that
They’re not Oklahoma, they’re Iowa. We’re supposed to play for championships, and that’s not going to happen.

This Visa commercial makes me laugh
except I’m not sure I would have 10 friends to take to the superbowl with me.
For all those saying that it's the refs or "flukes"
it’s not. Nebraska is just a slightly better-than-average team this year. A good win against Iowa and a bowl win against a strong team will help to set the Huskers for a more productive season next year.
I also really do think that it does probably take a year for the coaching staff to understand the league and opponents and game plan more effectively.
How can you not
acknowledge flucky plays and officiating interference in this game?
by HuskerINtheArmy on Nov 19, 2011 2:17 PM CST up reply actions
Oh we're playing like crap today
But I could list 10 major things that shouldn’t happen or at least normally wouldn’t happen in a normal game. Our team finally gave out.
"My hardest job is to convince the people of Nebraska that 10-1 is not a losing season." - Tom Osborne
But I feel like I hear that for every NU loss
those things have a way of evening themselves out over time, but people tend to ignore them more with victories than in defeat.
Uh no
Nothing really fluky about Northwestern, we played poorly, they outplayed us and deserved to win. In Wisconsin there was some bad officiating, but it in no way caused that loss.
Today has just been a comedy of pro-Michigan errors by the refs, errors that are ridiculous even by Nebraska standards committed by our offense, defense, and especially special teams. Like I said earlier, it’s a Murphy’s Law day for NU.
"My hardest job is to convince the people of Nebraska that 10-1 is not a losing season." - Tom Osborne
So who here thought we would end the season
as the 4th or 5th best team in the B1G? I bet we play a Big XII team now in the Insight bowl. Missouri here we come!
I'd love to see NU-Texas
(but that would probably require Texas to win out).
Even though it would be a second-tier game, it would feel like it meant something and get a lot of national interest.

He wasn’t good, but no one was, and he only had one turnover. And got no help from his offensive line or receivers. Again.

Wow, at times, we are a very stupid team
Is it really that hard to coach holding the ball high and tight? Bell was horrible today, drops, fumbles. I dunno, losing to Michigan is one thing, getting blown out to a team that will probably lose by 3 TD to whatever SEC team they face in their bowl is unacceptable.

Two dropped touchdowns in 3 plays
