Essentially a playoff team if winning didn’t matter.

 

[That SOB Van Owen]

Fucked again by sucking. @B1G_10_Tony

You and tone are a match made in heaven.

 

[Ext. 55]

This ref Crew was shit again tonight. Now for the second time they have effected the game in a negative way. Call it sour grapes, but they absolutely effected the game…poor calls

 

[That SOB Van Owen]

OK that forward progress


I looked it up they were correct on awarding it to the receiving team. Special rule for scrimmage kicks (punts).

Rule 6-6B

What was your overall impression of tonight’s officials and some of the more controversial calls?

What are your thoughts on the whistle not being blown for forward progress before Adrian’s fumble? Seemed like he had been stood up for a long time and the same thing happened the play before with Oliver Martin.

 

[BIG TONE SOPRANO]

Not only was it uncatchable, what absolute bullshit. Cucks like @B1G_10_Tony who don’t watch the games and just bitch, this is the shit that they don’t see.

We get fucked week after week. So sick of it. Unbelievable.

Who is screwing NU? Maybe you should hire a private investigator

 

[RedSavage]

how about the shitty play calling the first half? The decision not to kick a FG from inside the 10 yard line and instead try to have AMart outrun a talented Michigan D?

how about the fact that this is exactly the same way that Frost’s teams have consistently lost games for four years and at some point, you’re responsible for that if you’re the head guy? Especially if you put all your eggs in the Adrian Martinez basket that consistently loses games for four years now?

blaming the refs is such a pussy move - either Nebraska is consistently picked on by refs for the last four years (10 years really) OR it has a shitty coaching staff that consistently under performs its talent level (which is going to nosedive after our 4th straight losing season).

I hate blaming the refs but we literally are. If we could get out of our own fucking way, it wouldn’t matter though.

Michigan’s rb ran the ball right after the turnover, had basically the exact same situation and they blew it dead for forward progress.

that’s a weak mindset when the reality is Nebraska has been marginal for 10 years or so so can’t overcome a few calls that don’t go their way which happens to literally every team. Play better and the calls don’t matter - you want to say the Refs had it out for us during Texas A&M in 2010, I’m with you - yesterday was a normal game that AM pissed away.

Don’t forget the refs missed an illegal formation call on a touchdown for us. It goes both ways

 

[...TrueColors...]

What exactly was Frost’s fault tonight? The shitty PI call that led to 7 for them at the end of the half?

Adrian fumbling after picking up a first down the last drive? Never ever getting a holding call against the opposing team, when multiple are blatant every game?

There wasn’t really anything that was a coaches fault last night. The problem is we have retards in our fanbase that are so simple in nature, view literally everything through a binary lens, and have zero grey area in their mind that after a night like last night they have to find something to blame. If they can’t blame talent it’s gotta be a coaching failure because what else is a moron that can’t think deeper going to blame?

We lost. It sucks. We played a good game against a top ten team and being that close sucks a lot.

Any moron that thinks Frost will be gone at the end of the year is absolutely out of his fucking mind.

The same people would’ve been excited if before the season you told them that we had two one possession losses to top 10 teams where we had a chance to win it on the final drive.

I honestly believe that people are still upset about the Illinois game and are lashing out because of it. If we were 4-3 right now then nobody is butt hurt the way that they are.

Now, we lost to Illinois and that sucks. But anybody who’s being honest with themselves can see that this is a different team than we saw in week 0.

The Illinois loss is the worst one in the Frost era and there was no excuse to lose to that team that has proven to be shit. I don’t blame anyone for being upset about that loss even to this day. I still am myself.

Minnesota last year was pretty bad. I'm not sure Illinois was worse. They're both bad.

You had all off-season to prepare for an Illinois team with zero talent that was breaking in a brand new staff that also had its starting QB go down early.

Looking back, it was totally flukey. But also worse than Minnesota. At least Minnesota had a couple of guys on their team last year that other schools in the conference would want.

Yeah it was bad for sure. Minnesota had their best player opting out for the year, down to 2nd and 3rd strings in multiple positions. But you're right. They had an NFL RB and WR. A reasonably decent QB that could have played a few other places. They're both really bad but those are fair points to make Illinois worse.

Using the beauty of hindsight now as well with what this team has now shown, we should have beaten Illinois by 40.

What was your overall impression of tonight’s officials and some of the more controversial calls?

Overall, not very good. Reggie Smith is a good white hat, but the crew struggled. I personally know one of the officials he was a mentor/instructor at a camp a few years ago in Baltimore.

The good:
The AM forward pass/incomplete/fumble let that play out and let replay fix.

The OK:
The QB knee down on TD. That's impossible to see field level full speed. No one is watching that handoff and watching blocks. Replay should have caught this right away, shouldn't be up to Frost to catch this.

The bad:
Missing a Michigan spot by 3 yards, especially with an open view. I said it from south stadium that was a horrible spot. Harbaugh had a right to be livid about that needing to go to replay.

There was a spot in 4th quarter which one line of scrimmage official had him a half+ yard short (came in with hand up) and other sideline official was a half yard off (killing the clock indicating a first down). They ended up going with first down. Extremely bad optics and I believe he was short.

The dead ball officiating on muffed punt. Zero officials clearing pile and finding ball. It took way too long to sort out. That allowed for a joint possession to happen.

The forward progress on final drive. I want to see these plays again, but optics were bad on the fumble. White hat was coming in thinking progress was stopped. His job is protect QB at all times. Ball squirts out and he's right there near pile and scrambling to get out of the way. Not his call on progress but he felt it was stopped to get in there before fumble.

The unbelievable:
Pass interference call. That lead to a TD, maybe instead of FG. That 4 point swing is huge in a 3 point final.

The way the crew handled Harbaugh on sideline. It's well known he's horrible to work with, but these guys let him go. I counted he yelled at 5 officials during a commercial break before a kickoff after a Nebraska score. He started with white hat and center judge, moved to LJ on goalie, up to FJ on 45, and onto BJ and U at 35. Also he argued calls from on the field, which is an automatic unsportsmanlike.

We certainly know that you won’t overthink it
