Our best option in that game was running wildcat with Burkhead because T-mart was hurt. It's hard to keep a solid offensive team like OU down the whole game especially when your offense wasn't productive. I can't blame him for that loss. I do wish we would have tried to kick the fg with Henry instead of going for it though.
Looks like the Fighting Pelini's are..

Because Cody Green sucked and most of the people on here thought he would be the next great thing. Let's not blame Bo on this one with the backup Qb. It was his second year.
I was wondering if Bo was going to freak out when they put the one second back up. Im not a fan of his personally, but if they would have lost in that last added second, I would have felt bad for him.
Bo isn't going to change. I caught that old familiar look, steam coming out of his ears and his face all scrunched up when his DBs gave up an easy TD to EWU's best player, WR Cooper Kupp.
Westerkamp out, Tommy's bad hammy, Ryker's damaged wrist and playing in the Vol's backyard does not bode well for the Huskers in their bowl game. So the outcome of that game won't bother me nearly as much as the Iowa game. That one still stings. Riley and staff didn't get the team ready. From my viewpoint the Huskers still think it is ok to get blown out like they did in Columbus and Iowa City. I don't think the Huskers played as well after Madison and Columbus. The run game seemed to work better before Columbus. What was our big win this year? There doesn't seem to be a Michigan State this year. Wyoming was the only team that finished with a winning record at 8-5 that Nebraska beat. Northwestern, Indiana and Maryland were all 6-6. Illinois and Purdue were 3-9. Oregon wasn't much better at 4-8. Fresno State's record, 1-11, got their coach fired.
One thing that has been a constant on this board since Mike got hired has been people writing to tell all to just wait until the new coach gets his players on campus. Then things will change. Well we are about to find out. After the bowl game a whole bunch of Bo's players are leaving. Hope we are ok.
Riley has a really amazing record in bowl games, like 8-1 I think. I think NU will be fine vs Tennessee
All hinges on our QB.....hope Ryker is ready.....and keeps his left hand out of the line of fire.
pelini is gaining interest from minny fans. some think they have a real good shot at fleck. of course, that all depends on the claey situation. some think claey's will be gone after the bowl game---some think minny may have no choice but to keep claey's.
