Game Thread: Northwestern vs. Nebraska

[Alan Smithee]

Hull making something happen regularly after a short catch

 

[Rodenthater]

😡😡😡

 

[phatcat]

That scramble really sucked. Finally pressure the QB...

 

[Titanium999]

Stop those big plays please!

 

[phatcat]

Wow he made an actual mistake

 

[Titanium999]

That scramble really sucked. Finally pressure the QB...

Total bs! Regroup!

 

[FeralFelidae]

That was, indeed, a dirty jersey-tug and it might have affected the play.

Really crappy way to blow a 3rd and 16.

 

[Rodenthater]

Nebraska could have a 3rd and 90 and they’d convert!

 

[rogerkim]

Hope Cam isn’t hurt too seriously. Secondary will be really thin if both he and AJ are out…

 

[Titanium999]

Total bs! Regroup!

They can’t run 🏃‍♀️ on us! Can’t fall for those gimmicks! BS penalty call! Announcer stinks too!

 

[FeralFelidae]

Damn. Defense really needs to step up here.

 

[phatcat]

Sigh. Cam. Why?

 

[Alan Smithee]

Sigh. Cam. Why?

Great run, poor finish.

Mitchell was back in the game. Maybe he can blame injury for that game-changing missed tackle.

 

[FeralFelidae]

Great run, poor finish.

He should have secured the ball with both hands before the hit. He just kept it cradled in one arm.

 

[Alan Smithee]

Well they got the big jugular play after TO, one play late.

 

[phatcat]

Yay Frosty for the onside kick

 

[FeralFelidae]

Thanks for the short field, Frost!

 

[rogerkim]

Thank you, Scott Frost. You can always be counted on for at least one stupid decision per game.

 

[rogerkim]

3 and out. Go defense!

 

[phatcat]

My fingernails are bloody stumps

 

[CatManTrue]

Why didn’t they go for it there on 4th and 1 instead of taking the penalty? A good QB sneak would have gotten it done.

 

[Figrating]

You get stuffed trying to run 2/3 so of course you run it again.

 

[rogerkim]

Love the OL and Porter exerting their will on this drive.

 

[wildcatcoaster]

Maybe call 1 penalty against Nebraska, zebras?

 

[Figrating]

Very big play coming up. GO CATS!

 

[bjm989]

We got cheated on the false start call!

 

[FeralFelidae]

Needed points there.

 

[phatcat]

Looked like BJo on the INT

 

[CatManTrue]

Bad coaching there by Bajakian and Fitz led to 0 points.

Plus the BS false start tho

 

[EvanstonCat]

2nd time we had a boneheaded run play on 3rd and long and this time we don’t even get 3.

 

[FeralFelidae]

Wow, Nebraska's D looks worn out.

 

[Figrating]

YAAAAAAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[samuirocks]

Team is 10x times better than expected. Defense has played well as Nebraska is a good offense. Offense line has been dominant.

 

[bjm989]

Wow, Nebraska's D looks worn out.

And our O-line and run game looking dominant. Now let’s see our D shut em down!

 

[samuirocks]

Time to focus and finish. Stay aggressive.

Exactly this. Hoped we would be able to run but Hilinski wow and decent defense especially v run

 

[Figrating]

Wow, Nebraska's D looks worn out.

Can't recall the last time the NU O wore somebody out... could be fun running the ball against these guys the rest of the way.

 

[EvanstonCat]

Boy I like Porter but Hull is the star of this offense. He’s also been a great receiving threat. Would love to see them both on the field at the same time more often. Gotta get our best playmakers onto the field more.
