One good thing...

I don't know. I'd like to know because there really is no reason you would at that point when your offense struggled and got lucky on that TD anyway. Now if you score a late TD to cut the lead to 1 and attempt and 2pt conversion to try and win the game then ok I get it but at the point in the game when it happened was just dumb.

Day would be really expensive - I don't see Nebraska being able to afford that. We'll be bargain shopping for a head coach likely out of FCS or non Power 4 school
 
I'm gonna call it right now. Nebraska upsets Ohio State 24-12 before a crowd of 64,285, and the curse will be broken. THE SELLOUT STREAK IS THE CURSE. You heard it here first.
I told you the other day what the curse is. Its from when Bo said "let them see how good they are when I'm gone". And we haven't been very good. We need him to come to the stadium and lift the curse

You spend money to win. If he were to get fired by OSU he will be the hottest available coach to hire. I'd say if Urban Meyer expressed interest in coaching again you offer him $12 million per year for 6 years. You go big or go home.
 
Still makes no sense because teams don't convert on almost 60% or two points conversions. I'd say kick the PAT to be down by 7 then if you score another TD and want to go for 2 to win, that makes more sense. Which when I've seen works more often than not.

I do love how he mentions if you have to go for 2 twice that it's likely due to no confidence in your kicker. Nebraska did this one time against Miami in 2015. Down by 16 late and unbelievably scored 2 TDs and converted the Two point conversion both times to send the game into OT.
 
Did anyone listen to his PC and if so did he say why they did that?
I listened to it and it was the worst word salad I've heard in a long time. It was like he couldn't string together a coherent sentence. He'd start out 'well they called the play...and ya know, we know they do that, so we were uh, you know, uh, prepared.. but ah, they, uh, we need to keep coverage... and uh, uh, we always look for uh, the uh....

I lasted through 4 questions/answers. I wanted to ask where the skilled, barn burning speaking Matt Rhule from years ago went. I don't think he has the slightest bit of confidence in himself any longer.

By going for two and failing, he limited his options once again. Any one with a live brain would have gone for the PAT by kicking not running once again our leadership failed. Sort of like going for a 30 or 40 pass when all you need is 3 friggens yds
 
Pretty much what I thought. He doesn't even know why he did just that he did and it didn't work. It's kind of like when Scotch Frost decided to do an onside kick up 11 against Northwestern. Absolutely no reason to do it but did and lost the game.

That was to give Trev the finger, for sticking him with an OC he didn't want. Wanted to show that he still called the shots.
 
Nebraska sucks, but I think Nebraska will beat them. The fact it is OSU is the only reason I'll watch it. Other than that I'm done with Rhule.
Jeremiah Smith has opted out for the rest of the season.
Edit: I've still only seen this once on X so far. Take it with a grain of salt.
