I had told my wife this is the play I would call just that the QB pulls the ball at the last moment having Dowdell sell the leap. DR would've walked in.
Uenth's Official Humbled Huskers v. THE Buckeyes Thread
- Thread starter Chris
- Start date
Or Riola keeping it on a bootleg...
Or any kind of play action pass to a TE...
Or any kind of fade route...
Or any kind of "pick" play...
I don’t have a problem with that call , DD left the ground way too far back . My problem was the spot on the play before. The refs moved it back 1 yard
Rhule mentioned in his postgame presser that the play was called without realizing the refs had spotted the ball back another yard.
So the Big 10 overturned the targeting for the Ohio State player so he can play the 1st half. Honestly if we had won that game Day would've appealed the win and the Big 10 probably would've changed that to an Ohio State win.
Adam Carriker just posted on Twitter that 8 of 21 passes that Dylan Riola threw on Saturday were screens or sideline passes that either gained no, or lost, yards.
So for those of you wondering why I am so adamant that Satterfield should be fired...
Ohio State averaged 13+ yards per pass and Nebraska averaged 2.7 yards per pass in the 1st half and 4.6 in the 2nd half.
That is, for the entire game against Ohio State, Nebraska's yards per pass = 3.65 yards.
This level of offensive incompetence should be considered criminal.
Hey, @ATX_Husker ... How do you post Twitter posts here? I try and all I get is the link.

you copy the URL but you have to edit it and take out the "x.com" and make it "twitter.com".
This ^^ is what I was trying to post. Just unbelievably bad stats.
I remember some obviously BAD targeting calls that were called and confirmed against Nebraska that were more wrong than the one called Saturday against the Ohio State player.
Funny thing, I don't recall the B1G Office overturning any of them. But then, we weren't playing Penn State in a big-time game the next weekend.
I am of the very strong belief that the league will do damn near anything to protect Michigan and Ohio ( and the so called legacy teams to a much lesser degree )
If the roles were reversed and it was a Nebraska defender who was called for targeting given the exact, same circumstances, who here thinks the B1G Office could have come out and announced this week that our player could play the first half of the UCLA game?
Me neither. I'm not much of a betting man, but I'd make a good-sized bet on that one not happening.
