Go Texas!
bad play call throwing into double coverage.
Go Texas!
whew!
New kicker different result.
22-20 Texas with 23 seconds to go....still not over yet.
regardless what happens..two things I know:
Nebraska is WAYYYY better than a #17 ranking
Colt McCoy just grew up.
Hook and ladder....5 seconds to go.
Hahahahahaha.
Roughing the passer on Texas! One more play.
98 for UT is a ing idiot.
Excellent job by Colt to hold up well under pressure, and get it done. A win is a win but much props to the Cornhuskers for the scare.
uh oh?
Too close for my taste.
finally!
Texas escapes.
of a game by both teams. Props to you Husker nation, you have a of a team.
Texas didn't win this game, Nebraska lost it.
since a game has a winner and a loser...isn't it the same thing?Texas didn't win this game, Nebraska lost it.
Considering UT left 7 points on the field, I don't think I would say that. Texas should have had it won without all the drama.
I get what you are saying J-6, I just have never been a fan of that statement or the ever famous "(insert losing teams' name here) deserved to win"
You win a football game one way. You score more points than the other team period. There is no other way to claim victory. Texas kicking game was horrid but the Huskers gave the ball away three times. IMO, by saying one of those above statements, you take credit away from the players on the field and the effort they gave. I give major props to Nebraska. They played well enough to win this gameas did the Longhorns.
Nebraska threw the ball on 3rd down with UT out of TO's, in their own territory, with less than 2:30 left, with the Horns having to drive into the wind and ice / snow. If the back on a handoff up the gut doesn't get three yards for the first, the Huskers run the clock down to under 2:00 and punt from their 35 with the wind at their backs.
Let the freshman drive 60+ yards, with no TO's, into field goal range with the way UT had kicked so far. Into all that nasty blowing around.
Then Callahan wasted a TO trying to freeze the kicker out of a 22 yarder. With all the kicking problems UT had today, why give them time to set up? The clock wasn't running because of McCoy's incompletion the play before.
I don't know. I'm glad the Horns won, of course, but I'd be sick if I was a Husker fan.
I agree with you....Callahan showed dubious coaching but they still could have won this game with even one less turnover. I credit the Horns D for stepping up.
all in all, incredible game to watch! our break room was crowded and people filing out when someone yelled there was a flag on the last play - everyone squeezed right back in.
Texas is pretty good with 4 minutes left in the game.
If Callahan doesn't burn that last time out on the freeze / challenge, Taylor could have been throwing to get into FG range rather than for the end zone.
will you tell him that in person
maybe if he can teleport in from michigan.
Texas, whaaaaaaaa
I only got to watch half of the 3rd because I had to work today
Texas = Lucky.
They did what they had to do though.
Arkansas had nothing but pure luck beating Bama cause of their sucky ass kicker.
...well, it pretty much played out like i thought it would. close game down to the end. i was hoping nebraska's 3 turnovers would not catch up to them....but they did and the last one was most costly. i suppose i would say t.u. is a better football team cause this one was in lincoln, but the game was sooo close and in pretty much every aspect. t.u. had some missed field goals and nebraska turnovers. all in all, a great game and a battle of two good teams.
...only gotta say, how's that 50-19 and other ridiculous predictions working out, lol. good game, though.
*(spent the weekend @ Big Bend, so i only heard it on radio...sounds like it would have been a great one to watch)
