Good luck guys

I’m really excited for this one. The matchup I’m looking at tonight is the Husker’s dline vs. Arizona’s offensive line. Both are among the best in the country at what they do. I think who wins that matchup will go a long way toward deciding the game.

GBR!!

Yes I’m pretty sure there was buzz about new helmets for this game.

You guys look like you're wearing the old Patriots unis.

Yep. First time this year

by joenewby4040 on Dec 30, 2009 5:20 PM PST reply actions

Two 10 yard rushes.

No defense against a shotty Nebraska offense. Not a good start.

by joenewby4040 on Dec 30, 2009 5:22 PM PST reply actions

FG by Nebraska. 10-0 Nebraska.

by joenewby4040 on Dec 30, 2009 5:26 PM PST reply actions

Arizona is getting dominated on all fronts. Time to try the running game

by joenewby4040 on Dec 30, 2009 5:35 PM PST reply actions

Finally

a first down. Nice.

by joenewby4040 on Dec 30, 2009 5:43 PM PST reply actions

Foles overthrows receivers. Not a good start for Foles. Where is the middle of the field?

by joenewby4040 on Dec 30, 2009 5:45 PM PST reply actions

BRUTAL 1st quarter for the Cats. Let's hope the 2nd will be better.

by joenewby4040 on Dec 30, 2009 5:47 PM PST reply actions

Just got free to watch the game...

…on ESPN 360. Longhorn in the house, but lived in Tucson from ‘02-’07, so the ‘Cats are my adopted stepchild. Y’all get this under control and beat the Huskers. I admire the hell out of Nebraska’s program, but I never cheer for Big XII rivals. Bear down!!! (and Hook ’em)

Right On!

Hey Tejas Fan!

S’all good, I will thoroughly enjoy Bama putting the same type of beatdown on DA ‘Horns that Big Red put on the L’il Kitty Cats. Will root for OU any day of the week(except the Skers), but Tejas? NEVER!

Well, hope you enjoyed your “1 second of fame”, C ya next year in Lincoln, ;).

We are just getting hosed! Is Mark Stoops sandbagging us?

by joenewby4040 on Dec 30, 2009 5:52 PM PST reply actions

No pressure. Wide open receivers. Stoops has got to dial something up. This is ridiculous

by joenewby4040 on Dec 30, 2009 5:54 PM PST reply actions

A truck could have made it through there! 17-0 Nebraska.

by joenewby4040 on Dec 30, 2009 5:55 PM PST reply actions

Underwhelmed

I watched a few of y’all’s games this year, and I expected more. This will be difficult to dig out of a 17 point hole. BEAR DOWN UofA!!!!!

Right On!

by bfaut86 on Dec 30, 2009 5:58 PM PST reply actions

ANOTHER 3 and out. Arizona looks terrible.

24 yards in 18 plays. Defense has to step up.

No one is open!

by joenewby4040 on Dec 30, 2009 6:02 PM PST reply actions

20-0 Nebraska

by joenewby4040 on Dec 30, 2009 6:17 PM PST reply actions

Antolin runs for 8, then 0

by joenewby4040 on Dec 30, 2009 6:17 PM PST reply actions

What in the world was Foles doing?

by joenewby4040 on Dec 30, 2009 6:17 PM PST reply actions

4th and 1 for Nebraska.

by joenewby4040 on Dec 30, 2009 6:28 PM PST reply actions

False start. Idiot

by joenewby4040 on Dec 30, 2009 6:29 PM PST reply actions

Do y'all have the capability to come back?

I was really looking forward to this game and now feel as though I’m wasting my time.

Right On!

by bfaut86 on Dec 30, 2009 6:29 PM PST reply actions

Looks like we all are

by joenewby4040 on Dec 30, 2009 6:34 PM PST up reply actions

Personal foul on Elmore on a punt? This game is atrocious

by joenewby4040 on Dec 30, 2009 6:33 PM PST reply actions

23-0 Nebraska.

HOly shit!

by joenewby4040 on Dec 30, 2009 6:35 PM PST reply actions

Down by 23

why not freaking go for something instead of running the clock out? Come on. What have you got to lose, except for this bowl game in front of a lot of people who don’t give a dang about Arizona? Show some fight, Stoops. Good night, joenewby, I hope I miss a great comeback, but I doubt it. Good luck next year.

Right On!
