C'mon man.
Not to be a polyanna, but this is a championship game. Did we honestly think we would be able to run it up on these guys? Haven’t you read all the evals by every damn blog poster, sports pundit/journalist. We will get it turned around and it will be a different 2nd half. Watch.

Don't worry
We really played like a #2 team in the nation on the first half. We will be back on the second half.
We need t-shirts with this.

misdirection?
seems like some misdirection would work. NU is all over us on any Colt roll out. misdirection to Tre should bring some yards and slow down the NU defense
Hook'em!!
McElroy is your front runner for the 2010 Heisman.
Never lost a game as starting QB. Unreal.
"We don't freestyle Texas Fight, big boy." - Coach Brown
Need some great adjustments at the half
Good news is the Nebraska gets the ball first, which means we get good field position after they punt!
I dont care about the heisman that much.
But seriously? They are gonna take it away from colt cause he had a bad half of football? As I recall, last week Ingram didnt do shit, while Colt led his team to a victory. Voters are all :what have you done for me lately".
Texas Swagger
The same reason I hate playoffs
Why should the last game of the season be the only one that counts?
The Heisman has an unofficial, latent playoff structure about it, in that a half-dozen players seem to qualify for the last month of the season, then it gets down to 2 or 3 for the final week, and whoever has the best last performance wins.
anyone but colt for heisman...
I’ll take a win in this game, and no heisman for colt. escape with a close victory and no heisman and we have all the incentive.
Hook'em!!
70-6 Texas
Gonna be an ugly second half for Nebraska!
70-6 Texas
aye that! but what if nu doubles their 1st half offensive output??? Maybe Lee will drop back a few more times and really help us out.
misdirection a good idea. 45-13 sounds bout right to me. gonna uncork a few shiner’s in the 2nd half!
This game reminds me of last year Fiesta Bowl.
Sans Beanie Wells and Quan Cosby.

WE are acting just like florida
SABAN GAMEPLANNED LIKE CRAZY TO WIN THAT GAME….FLORIDA JUST SAID WERE FLORIDA…TRY AND BEAT US.
WE THOUGHT WE DIDN’T NEED TO PLAN ANYTHING DIFFERENT AGAINST THIS DEFENSE…..WHOSE FAULT IS THAT ?
Can't get enough of that cowbell !!!

Wtf
Our wrs are covered down field what’s changed about their route running…even if we get by ne, al is going to blitz us to oblivion

She should
be signed by NU as QB for the rest of this game.
The "Big Bang" was actually a Will Muschamp chestbump......with the Earth!
Time
Colt seems to have a decent amount of time in the pocket; deep routes. burn ’em once or twice and we get it all back.
double moves
if we can possibly get the time. they’re jumping all the short routes.
Yikes.
Not pretty. We will wear them down in the second half though.

that UT girl was a dork
the Nebraska chick wasn’t much better. Dr. Pepper should be embarrassed they had 2 losers representin’. What’s the criteria to get in that contest? A pulse?
Pass interferance
Were it not for the pass interferance penalty we might very well be behind. I’ll just take the W please.

I was at a show watching my son perform
I’m back now. Last time I missed a first half was Wyoming. Once I got home things turned around. Sorry to put you all through this but things should get better now.
So its your fault we are all suffering here...
You better free up your schedule for the National Championship. I can’t take this anymore..
first I'm gonna go to the bathroom
then I’m gonna get another beer. Then if we haven’t scored yet, I’m gonna go to the bathroom again. And take a dizzump
I can't wait
to be done with the DMB for the year. UGH.

4 sacks for NEB,
But it would have been two had Colt thrown the ball away a couple of times.

Lets play the field position game.
Nice start for the defense.
i predict a three and out
just what my gut is telling me.
Disciplina Praesidium Civitatis.
Dude. Let's stay positive. You will see a different O this half.
"We don't freestyle Texas Fight, big boy." - Coach Brown
i'm hopeful, i just don't think this is the break-through possession
Disciplina Praesidium Civitatis.
So help me here.
Were INTs bad passes or tipped balls. were the receivers dropping things or bad passes?
best damn blog anywhere...thanks to all of you who run this bad boy

that is a pretty bogus call
"Stats are for losers. I like winning games." - Will Muschamp
"Somebody will always break your records. It is how you live that counts." - Earl Campbell
Anyone else think we'd have a better chance
if we just kneel on it three times every offensive possession, ala Waterboy?
we need a penalty to get out of this
Disciplina Praesidium Civitatis.
I don't know what's worse...
the fact that there was a penalty or that the guy missed his block
Holy fuck
Our oline is fucking horrible

penalty killed that one

Terrible first drive of the second half
Can Muschamp call the O plays?
not a defender, but Hall killed that drive

O-line's
been the weak link all year.

Agreed...You won't get any argument there...
I still can’t believe the 2nd team would be any worse..
Good punt coverage. Special teams really stepping up tonight.

is it anything below the knees
or does the DL have to be engaged high as well?
sonofabitch
hey guys. fusker here. been a while. unfortunately for us you have nothing to worry about. our offense is a mystery to me this year. Terrible. We’re flipped upside down and we can’t keep this up, believe me. I am proud of the effort, but i’m an honest man…
Nuttier than a four-balled Tomcat.
The D can win this one all by themselves
Looks like they will have to.

they are over pursing...

by TexasGarcia37 on Dec 5, 2009 9:23 PM CST up reply actions
the blitz was telegraphed
and no check off and no pick up
were they bringing seven?
we have got to find a way to neautralize all out blitzes
It Ain't Easy, But It's Worth It.
Shit
can we just have Colt punt on first downs?
The "Big Bang" was actually a Will Muschamp chestbump......with the Earth!
colt totally whiffing on where to step up to in the pocket
Ran right in to the lane of the blitzer. Eek. Big series here. Come on turnover!

knowing that every defense would play us like this after the OU game...
it’s scary that we still don’t have an answer. I have little faith that with a month to prepare for a MNC game, it will get better than this
This is turning into a Royal-era game
Disciplina Praesidium Civitatis.
NU getting constant pressure
up the middle making Colt not wanna step up into the pocket, then they bring an outside blitz and he’s done.
