Texas just fell to A&M. The Horns just punted their chance at the BCS (Fiesta Bowl).

Week 13 Observations

Postby culax on Mon Nov 27, 2006 12:29 pm

Nebraska spanked Colorado 37 to 14. And while the outcome made me very happy, I thought that the game was much closer than the final score. Nebraska resorts to using too many gadget plays. When you successfully run 2 fake punts in the same game, is it a sign of desperation or are you trying to embarrass the opponent? Nebraska also scored on a half-back pass. Will any of this crap work against Oklahoma in the Big 12 Championship game?

Speaking of Oklahoma, am I the only one that thought Oklahoma State scored on the goal line fumble in the 3rd quarter. The slow motion instant replay clearly (?) showed that the running back had the ball when it broke the goal line. Even the announcers on Fox Sports said the call would be overturned on review.

The offense is way too inconsistent, so they have to use trick plays or else they'd barely score any points.

I'll be there rooting on the Huskers, so I sure hope so.
