Gerry's getting tossed is why alchol should not be served in the booth.

Eric Williams

the sad part about Gerrys ejection is that the replay officials reviewed the play for 10 minutes and still managed to embarrass themselves once again

William Snesrud

Absolutely not.....that was the kind of tackle coaches should be teaching their players - hit them with the shoulder and wrap them up in your arms...... Can't believe he got tossed for such a textbook tackle and after everybody but that officiating crew and review judge saying so........

T David Andrew M

It was the best example of poor judgement call so far this season

Bonnie Guy

because it should be obvious.....

David LaFever

Consider the officiating crew...ACC. That says enough...ask Duke.

Bob Crockford

Absolutely not! What in the world did they see, the whole country did NOT see? Idiots! Either they are blind, dirty or they haven't a clue! Fire the idiots! If you asked me, they picked on him, because he had a target vs Iowa.

Shelly Baker

That was a picture perfect tackle! Exactly the way it should be made.

Stephen Johnson

The rule is to subjective. He followed the rules. The officials did not.

Jerry Williams

All the video shows it was good hit.

Larry Baumann

No, however that is the dirty play Banker has always coached his players.

Bob Crockford

Really? Hopefully, you don't get the job!

Visitor

The rules were completlely followed

John Lind

this was some of the poorest officiating i have seen all season, there is no way he should have been flagged for targeting, he had a form perfect tackle, i think it was called because it was such a hard hit and the official were pussies...

Dan Cubrich

I would like to make a suggestion to the boneheads who came up with that penalty to give the officials even more power to screw up a game.... when a defender is approaching a ball carrier, I guess he should just say "boo" instead of tackling him, and then the play will be...Continued on the reply...

Dan Cubrich

Called dead and the play will then be over. There will then be no chance for any injuries!

Keith Petrie

Absolutely not! Neither time!!!

Visitor

nope perfect form tackle this rule needs to be changed asap

Fred Powers

BS-PC call

Qb. Oline. Offense could be very good. Back 7 on d should be good Concerns at rb depth and unknowns on interiour d line.

Terrence Smith

With their schedule, they might be able to make it this year.

Chester Ogborn

They are as much a potential playoff team as Arizona State and Indiana were last year. There is no harm is fans dreaming big. A team with a recent history like Nebraska is going to put it together this year. Why not the Huskers?

Joe Nigro

Just wishful thinking but I believe the talent is there. We will need a few breaks but it is possible.

George mcdaniel

It had to do with mindset confidence and luck

Matt

They have a schedule that gets to the year 3 Matt Rhule 10 wins. If they can hang with Penn St. then they could be in the conversation as a 10-2, 11-1 team.

So tired of delusional preseason talk. How about a winning conference record and a bowl win.

Charlie Knapper

Haven't proven anything, yet.

Brad Mcbride

They are a 6-6 football team until proven otherwise.

Chin Sin Chong

No on field results to support that yet. History told us talks are simply empty statements

Roy Katskee

NU has not demonstrated that they belong.

Melvyn Halfon

NU has not been able to recruit top notch players. The media has led fans to believe that 3 star players can be molded into 4 and 5 stars. That dog don’t hunt?

Kevin Hubbell

Let's not put the cart before the horse! 7 or 8 wins maybe.

Joe Hegarty

That's crazy alright. Just hope they make a bowl game again.

Suicide Slush Puppie

We simply don't have the level of talent needed to reach the playoff. Achieving more wins that last year is a more realistic goal.

Bill Petty

Anything can happen, but up until now, Rhule hasn't shown that he can get the job done. I hope I'm wrong, but I just can't by the hype. Show me on the field.

Eric Picquet

They haven’t done anything on the field to warrant that expectation. But there is nothing wrong with the team setting it as a goal and striving to reach that goal.

Mike O

Immanuel Kant would say no, but he had a very strict definition of reason. I can only imagine him pooh-poohing the Huskers because Rhule is compulsed to pass the ball on clear running downs. Afraid to actually hand the ball to the fullback on 3rd and 1. And instead is in the shotgun. NO THEY KANT!

Bob Flanagan

Thry’ll be better this year, but I think 9-3 or 8-4 are likely which keeps them out of contention this year. My hope is that by year 4 under Rhule will finally get them ibto the playoff picture

Richard Johnson

They need to prove they belong. Still to ,many players on the squad that played on bad teams and don't know how to win yet.

Greg Engel

I just can’t let myself get my hopes up too high. I am hopeful for a good season, though

Dan Larsen

Let's consider a few "bigger" bowl game victories first.... way to early!

Steve Slezak

Too soon
