What a sloppy game.  I think Nebraska dropped more interceptions than their receivers actually caught.  Imagine how fun this game could have been to watch if it were on grass/mud.  But, it wasn’t, and we were forced to watch this horrible show of offense.  I’m suprised the Huskers didn’t try to run the ball more early.  Their receivers couldn’t catch, and their punt returners were just horrible so why not just feed the run.  What could it hurt?

I’m not giving much of a breakdown because, frankly, I got bored with this game early.  And with a new episode of Always Sunny on, there were other options.  In fact, I’m  typing this as the 3rd quarter winds down.  And wouldn’t you know, Nebraska just scored.  Now this has become somewhat of a live real-time writing blog.  Since we’re at commercial I’ll talk about Always Sunny.  Not the new one, but the episode they showed after, “Sweet Dee has a Heart Attack“  Might be one of the best episodes ever.  Here’s a little taste:

12-7 missouri… and Finally Nebraska gets a pick.  Probably the toughest of them all to catch.

Touchdown Nebraska.  What a catch there.  Big momentum shift has just happened.  Going for 2 here…aaand a penalty.  You don’t say.  13-12 Nebraska.

What is that nasty looking ice cream shit?

Bo!  BO!  Pay attention, we’re about to call a penalty on missouri and want to know if you want to accept.  Nevermind, Bo.  It’s against Suh.  It’s ok though because Gabby is gonna toss another pick.

And the tide has turned.  Wide open TE.  20-12 Nebraska.  3 TD’s in about 4 minutes.

How ’bout that regional coverage Saturday on ABC?  I’m sure we’ll get Baylor-OU but I’d like to see Wisky-tOSU.

Gabby lost his fanny pack.

What’s the deal tonight with dropping Suh back in coverage so much?  I think missouri is seeing that and making a decision to run the ball.  Weak horse-collar call there.  He didn’t drag him down by the pads.

Nice catch by Jackson.  Initially I thought he went OoB but the refs say no.  Now a review.  ESPN needs to show less of Refs with a headset and more of the reviewed play.  Great catch if it stands.  And it does.

How many pieces of gum does Bo go through in a game?  Discuss.  I’d hate to be on the other end of that headset hearing those horse jaws smack all game.

4th and 6 coming up.  big play… Interference.  Good call.

Holding call on missouri while Gabby throws it away lefty style.  He could be the next Jake Plummer.

I’ve said it once and i’ll say it again, Gabby thows the best “out of the back of the end zone ball” I’ve ever seen.

Turnover on downs.  Stupid Nebraska player gets in Gabby’s face on the sidelines, lucky not to draw a flag.

Sooooo the rain stops and NOW Nebraska figures out how to run?

Helu just broke one and this game is over.

TD Helu.  And the mass missouri exodus begins.  27-12 Nebraska.

After that long pass for the first NU touchdown, missouri folded like an Asian-American laundromat.

Watching this game as a KU fan, neither of these teams scare me.  Neither does Iowa State*
