Open GameDay Thread: Nebraska at Texas
Game 9: Nebraska at Texas
Nebraska Cornhuskers (4-4, 1-3) at Texas Longhorns (6-2, 2-2)
Saturday, October 27, 2007 · 2:30 p.m. CT
Darrell K. Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium (85,123) · Austin, TX

Television: ABC
Radio: 98.1 FM / 1300 AM (Austin)

The Longhorns take the field Saturday winners of back to back contests over the conference's two weakest teams; today, they face a reeling Nebraska squad, losers of three straight with a lame duck coach. Three things to look for today:
1. Dictate on offense. This is a Nebraska team which hasn't stopped anyone since USC visited Lincoln and ran for a thousand yards. Yards are there for the taking, but Texas needs to go after them aggressively. Nebraska has shown no ability to stop hard hitting, decisive runs. Let's see if Texas can get that done today.
2. Keep transitioning the defense towards 2008. We've been starting two seniors at safety; given Erick Jackson's mediocrity, the transition to Ishie must start now. When possible, use Curtis Brown and Chykie Brown to complement Beasley and Palmer for '08. With Thomas Marshall out this week, keep rotating in Ben Alexander to join the DT rotation with Roy Miller next year. I needn't say anything about the linebackers.
3. Win and win big. The 'Horns have a chance to finish this season heading in the right direction, but the schedule gets nastier from here out. After Nebraska, Texas closes at Oklahoma State, vs Texas Tech, and at A&M. Ideally, the 'Horns could win out and pick up a Holiday Bowl berth to play what will be a formidable opponent - either USC, Oregon, Cal, UCLA, or Arizona State. All would be a great game to close out '07.

oh lookie, tough smack talk
"Nebraska has shown no ability to stop hard hitting, decisive runs. Let's see if Texas can get that done today."
A hard-hitting, decisive run will be any one that happens after you hand the ball off to someone who's wearing a helmet with a horned cow on it, so don't go making yourselves out to be big, tough hombres just because we couldn't stop a beatle from rolling dung balls down hill.
We suck. We don't care. We hope you run the ball a lot so the game and therefore the season is over faster.
Do me a favor, will ya? Every time you score, just yell "Dead Man Walking" instead of whatever the hell it is you usually yell.
Taking lots of sleeping pills until next season, your friend in football,
Corn Blight.

I want you all
to understand something.
The comment that Bill Callahan is handling his treatment by Husker fans as well as he possibly can is just pure bullshit.
He's handling it like a child. the whole "he's doing excellent", refusing to wear Husker red at his press conferences.
The man is a disease.

the switching running backs every few plays. Doesn't allow either to get into a rhythm. Reminds me of last year with S. Young and JC.
Pick a running back and stick with him. This switching backs isn't helpful at all.

WTH?
Would someone other than brain dead Greg Davis please call the offense?

And what's sad is that this still won't be enough
We'll still listen to people defend Greg Davis after this game, and after the next poor performance, and the next poor performance...
We will never get rid of this guy, he'll be in my nightmares when I'm 50.

Lets just hope
that this is just another one of those games where we play like crap in the 1st half and explode in the 2nd half.
If we lose to NU... man I don't even know what to say.

Nebraska
Our games with them always seem to be excellent.

you gotta remember
This is a Nebraska team that beat Wake and Ball St this year!

Are you kidding me?
This is one of the worst games I've seen all year.

It's official
I'm embarrased. Gut check time at halftime.

tremendously
awful. Our worst half of football. Completely anemic. What the hell has happened to this football team.

I don't understand
who could possibly be surprised by this, having watched the games leading up to this, and knowing exactly who our coaches are.

I could be
And to be honest, I don't know how you could not be surprised.

When PB wrote
that this will probably be a dogfight, even though it shouldn't, I thought "Yep."
Half this fanbase is in SERIOUS denial about the ineptitude of this coaching staff.

I am
we have been absolutely awful.
More than awful. We're historically awful. I mean since 1894 awful on defense. we had a lot of bad teams after World War II. We're worse than them.
I'm shocked. Absolutely shocked.
Corn Nation - Graduating more of our players than you are!

Finley gets a catch!
Seeing that NU can't stop the run, maybe we should've gone with Chiles.
And now McCoy gets sacked to end the quarter.

no one shouldve clapped
for those losers running off the field. i hate our pathetic crop of soft scholarship wasting patsies.

Wow
This site has turned really negative all of a sudden. We have sucked in the first half much of the year, I look for us to bounce back and win. Any win over nebraska is good enough in my book. I know they're down, but a win is a win in my book.

Is it really them?
Or the coaches and their philosophies?
by goingforthecorner on Oct 27, 2007 4:20 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
i never understand defending them
they understand what they've been given right? for free...right? they worked hard to get it...they got what they wanted...and then they stop working hard? i don't understand it. i'm more mad at the coaches for putting them in these situations...but really? play like you give a crap. neither team is playing like that right now.

Um, no
You can't disparage the players like that here.
Consider this a warning.

whatever makes you feel better dude.
there's plenty of kids who play hard every down with half the talent.
by mattw on Oct 27, 2007 4:28 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Yeah
not the players...its all about the coaches.
There are 4 great coaches slugging it out on the other networks (Oregon/USC and UGA/FLA). It is such a contrast to watch them coach compared to the two staffs on display in Austin.

by hookemkp on Oct 27, 2007 4:25 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
here's what's going to happen
Nebraska will go three and out.
Horns will get the ball with decent feild position. GD will have all his weapons available, and we'll see three straight runs up the middle for 3 yards total...

I believe we start this half with the ball

3 P's: Pitiful, Pathetic, Piss-Poor
If the Nebraska players have quit on their coach, what does this performance say about the Horns? It doesn't matter who the QB is or how predictable GD's plays are, we should be up by 4 TD's! We are playing at home against a team supposedly in disarray who has lost 3 straight. Does anybody, except me, think it might be next year before Brown wins #100?
