If they would have had replay, the pass to McCloskey would have been ruled no catch. No first down, no ball on the 5.

They were both robbery on the refs part but the receiver for Penn state was no where near catching that pass inbound. It was clearly out of bounds and really showed the referees favoritism toward Penn

This was a 4th & 1 play. If they make the right call Tom got his first NT. Nope..... this one burns worse.

Huskers still could have won 94 Orange Bowl. Bad call was early in the game. 82 PSU was right at the end.

Just piggybacking on this reply... there should be a 3rd choice: the Texas game in the Suh era when the refs put 1” back on the clock so Texas could kick the winning field goal.

6 of one, half dozen of the other... BOTH calls were HORRIBLE. Easy to make the correct call....IF you're paying attention to your responsibilities.

Nat Championship on the line. In addition there was a phantom PI call in the last minutes that gave them the field position to make their last field goal.

I remember watching this game,and being devastated watching Florida state celebrate at the end of the game, the better team certainly did not win that game.

I'm still burning about that one! But that game is what started my burning passion for Big Red!

The 94 Orange Bowl because there was more than one that literally lost the game for us and it was for the National Championship.

It wasn't just 1 call. The FSU TD that was a fumble; the Nebraska fumble that was a TD; the phantom penalty on Dixon's punt return TD; almost every penalty after the Huskers' last FG. It felt fixed.

Nebraska is known over the years to have struggled against running Quarterbacks, they have to make sure that doesn’t happen today!!!

I think our OL is the most problematic thing, not Emmett Johnson. If MSU gets on a roll and stops Dylan then we are in trouble.

Any time you stop the run, you make a team one dimensional

the OL has to play better. the running backs can't run if there aren't any holes to run into. they have to protect the QB, 1 or 2 sacks are acceptable, but they can't give up 7 again.

I believe Coach Rhule and his staff have the ability to get the team to understand their shortcomings in the last game and will show them how to overcome the obstacles that Michigan presented. GO BIG RED!!! 🎈🎈🎈

I doubt it, but I'd be happy with 3/4 at this point. Hope I'm wrong though.

Can't get stops when it counts the most. Can't move ball when it counts the most. O line and D line have been and continue to be a problem. I am not hopeful going forward.

We have a DC that can't adjust on the fly.

Our line play is mediocre. We have skill players but our line play on both sides will be our limiting factor. We need to find toughness for 4 quarters. In this age of celebrating every yard, we lose rock hard toughness.

Football games are won with offensive and defensive lines. We have neither.

Our O-Line & D-Line are simply not good enough to get the job done.
