And this is not the the first Super Bowl decided by the referees. Pittsburgh vs Seattle. The Pittsburgh players couldn't believe the poor officiating. Especially the last "touchdown" that never crossed the line.

Hue John

The Officials decided the End of Game A Great Game, Not the Players. This will always be Shadow over Super Bowl 57 Kansas City Chiefs Victory. ( Bad Call)

Wayne

I'm not a fan of either but this is now the 2nd Superbowl in a row decided by the refs . . .not the teams

Patrick Simmons

That ruined the players deciding the game!

The call was the call and the Chiefs subsequently won the game.

Eagles' James Bradberry admits to committing late-debated penalty: 'It was a holding'

Julie Borkowski

We are a society of "it's someone else's fault!" always looking to blame our own inadequacies on everything but ourselves. The Eagles were out-played. Besides the Chiefs had their share of bad and missed calls, but no one is going to say anything about that.

Who's the better choice at QB for Nebraska against Louisiana Tech, Heinrich Haarberg or Jeff Sims?

He needs to start this week for sure. Make it a true competition going into Michigan and set ourselves up to win the most of our BIG10 schedule as possible.

Tim N

Pretty Obvious. Great defense. He's physically crushing people. He's accurate. Takes care of the ball. Motivates team. Everyone is locked into him. I could keep going....

Mike Hulinsky

Proven to take better care of football

Bill Lyons

i have eyes and am a sentient being

James Stiver

Seemed to have managed the last game with confidence and should get better as time goes on!

Curtis Graeve

Simple. He doesn't turn it over!

Curtis Graeve

Just a side note. Sims is a great athlete. Teach him the finer points of being a WR and let him run with them! Big Bodied receivers are always great for a QB.

Doug Einsel

He shows better decision making. Bigger in size. Driven to perform. Less turnovers and he has a longer future at NU.

DrHusker66

He needs more time playing this position in game situations. I do think both should play get the rust off of Sims and give him confidence going into Michigan.

John Samson

High ankle sprain versus LA Tech. If Sims is going to be Rhule's guy, he needs to be healthy for Big 10 play. Let Haarberg get the experience while Sims heals.

Robert Lloyd

I love both QBs but must vote for Heinrich as he played lights out and with the so needed clean play protecting the ball. I do believe we can win also with Jeff and our players would have to just follow him looking for the ball coming loose. We can do that too. It's a team.

Ron Staebell

Backup QB is always the most popular player on the team, but in this case it makes sense. He's performed, Sims hasn't

Seth Hyberger

Haarberg is not turnover prone.

David Noe

Great applebee doesn't turn the ball over

Lyle Urbanec

Turnovers

Terry Darnall

He has a quarterback, mentality, poised, and decisive!

Power Glide

Harberg reminds me so much of Brooke Berringer. A journeyman QB

regan zeller

not turning to ball over is VERY important. Although HH had a couple passes that were probably ill advised we were able to come out on top.

John Whiteley

Haarberg has the hot hand now, but won't last long if he continues to take unnecessary hits when running. They'll need both QBs throughout the season.

John Fitzgerald

We need steadiness more than talent. Inconsistent play & turnovers at QB have cost us countless games 8 years+,

Thomas Duncan

I would move Sims to receiver, use his skills there. Haarberg looks to be a good fit at QB and will get better with more reps.

Richard Hein

He didn't turnover the ball

Omar Barnes

He is a better game manager which is what we need right now.

Linda Ogren

NEEDS to play better taking care football, faster, reads receivers, just what QB should be. Ron

Chad Alexander

SIMS IS FREAKING HORRIBLE!!

I am told the money goes to the SEC Scholarship Fund….so, a good cause…

Kevin Reed

NCAA fines are BS, but I'mma rush 100% of the time when the #THICCERKICKER sends us home with the W!

James Hicks

Acceptable for exceptional overtime wins.

There should not have been a fine for celebrating a win. Next, there will be fines for smiling.

Josh Armstrong

Act like you've been there before (even if it's been a decade.)

Fat Guy Outdoors

It was just KState. Stop acting so thirsty.

Toasty

I say the fine wasn't big enough. $100K is barely a slap on the wrist for Mizzou (or any college) sports. If the SEC really cared about this sort of thing, fine the school $100K for every individual on the field. Then make the fine due the day after with $100K for every day the fine is late.

Bill Douglas

Remember this fine next time you call MoDOT to complain about a crumbling road or a pothole or a stoplight that doesn’t work and the UM engineering school grad who answers the phone tells you the state has no money in the budget to fix that crap. UM grads need to have their paychecks docked for this
