First half thread for Northwestern-Nebraska

[Fitz51]

and u r the only cool headed one here..

No I'm here, too.

 

[phatcat]

You all are some nervous nellies round here

Yes, we are. What's your point?

 

[Hungry Jack]

Jewbander plays it straight

 

[Deeringfish]

20-17, I'll take it. Hank will make adjustment and JJ will get it going.

 

[willycat]

Oof. He had all the time in the world there but didn’t see #46 underneath... bad decision there by Thorson.
,
At least it’s deep in UNL territory and that so far they have no pass rush. Let’s go D!

He really has looked bad.

come on fitz, take a knee and get thorson the 2nd half.

 

[TheC]

You all are some nervous nellies round here

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!!!???? I'M COOL, CALM AND COLLECTED!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Figrating]

Running JJ on 1st AND 2nd is beneath conservative.

 

[Fitz51]

Jewbander plays it straight

Nice autocorrect.

 

[Deeringfish]

Need a sack

 

[DrillCat]

prevent D. Here we go..

 

[corbi296]

Since when does Phillips stand right by FItz and talk to him during the game? Talk about having your boss peering over your shoulder.

 

[Deeringfish]

Need a sack

or that

 

[DrillCat]

lets run Larkin!!!!!

 

[Windy City Cat Fan]

Lee is brutal - we need to bury them here.

 

[phatcat]

I hate that (KOR)shit. That never ever works except against us

 

[Hungry Jack]

Matt Millens head should be surgically removed and connected to a coffee maker so he can talk to you every morning

 

[TejasCat]

WTF FITZ

 

[Deeringfish]

Just get closer and take FG

 

[Windy City Cat Fan]

Clock management?

 

[corbi296]

That was awful time management by Pat.

 

[Fitz51]

What strategic purpose was just served by not using a timeout? I'm serious - I am trying to come up with one.

 

[Deeringfish]

Terrible clock management

 

[AtlantaCat]

WTF FITZ

I second that WTF. Why Fitz Why.

 

[TheC]

So... I take it we're a tad bit upset with Fitz about now.

 

[corbi296]

Brutal clock management and bad decision to go on 4th and a long 2on your side of the field. Have no idea what FItz was thinking. These decisions are keeping an inferior Nebraska team in this game.

 

[Fitz51]

I really want a defense to that no-timeout decision. I am willing to give the benefit of the doubt on a lot of coaching calls, but what the hell?

 

[Hungry Jack]

Dumb Fitz

 

[TejasCat]

Great job Fitz. You don't trust your FG kicker from outside 40, but you let the clock run out to try an even longer FG.

 

[DrillCat]

so, who is a better second half team? i think we are.

 

[AtlantaCat]

I really want a defense to that no-timeout decision. I am willing to give the benefit of the doubt on a lot of coaching calls, but what the hell?

BRUTAL coaching moment.

 

[Fitz51]

Boy, even 5 more yards would have been nice. Too bad we didn't have any time!

 

[ubercat]

Missed opportunity. Poor time out management.

 

[DarthCat]

How many points do we get for saving that timeout? That’s worth something, right? Must be.

 

[Alvious]

BTN sent the junior B telecast team for this one.

 

[CatsUnderStars]

WTF was he thinking?

 

[TheC]

That was all on Fitz. We are playing some braindead football today. We should be blowing this team out.

 

[TejasCat]

so, who is a better second half team? i think we are.

I think so, but would rather be up 6 or 10.

 

[Fitz51]

Also, yes, I know it was only one kick, but let's stop wondering why Fitz doesn't want Charlie kicking past 40 yards yet. Those decisions, I support him on. Whatever that clock crap was there is baffling, even for NU.

 

[Windy City Cat Fan]

No points off two picks in Nebraska territory. Letting them hang around, dangerous thing to do on the road,

 

[TheC]

Fitz will learn how to manage end of half/game situations eventually. He's still young.

 

[willycat]

That was awful time management by Pat.

did anyone expect anything different.10 years and counting,ugh.

 

[Catslash]

Does fitz not know how call a timeout or did he think he only had one left
