RainMaker · 12-05-2009, 09:58 PM

That bullshit pass interference from earlier really could come back to bite Nebraska and save the Big 12. Awfully convenient how that seems to happen every year.

Radii · 12-05-2009, 09:58 PM

Come on Tech, drag this drive out for another 5 minutes and score a TD.

bronconick · 12-05-2009, 10:00 PM

It's not so much running the ball, as it is running the ball in a jumbo goal line set. From the 10.

Danny · 12-05-2009, 10:00 PM

Nebraska should have started lateraling that return as if it was the last play of the game.

mauchow · 12-05-2009, 10:01 PM

An average receiver makes that catch. C'monnnn.. Good play though, one on one.

Radii · 12-05-2009, 10:01 PM

RainMaker · 12-05-2009, 10:03 PM

Watching that Suh guy has been a lot of fun but outside of that this has been one of the worst games I've seen all year.

JonInMiddleGA · 12-05-2009, 10:04 PM

Was there anyone on earth who didn't know that Spiller was going to do something like that?

edit: And I don't mean the play call, I mean going for 50+

mauchow · 12-05-2009, 10:04 PM

WOW, a NEBRASKA break even though it was a horrible call. lmao

Radii · 12-05-2009, 10:05 PM

Even accounting for the fact that Tech's defense isn't really that good, CJ Spiller is putting on an amazing show tonight.

mauchow · 12-05-2009, 10:05 PM

Now that you know the sneak is coming.. BEAT IT.

A safety wins it!

timmynausea · 12-05-2009, 10:05 PM

Perfect setup for a safety for the win.

JonInMiddleGA · 12-05-2009, 10:06 PM

6:11 left in Tampa, now 34-33 Clemson.

Danny · 12-05-2009, 10:06 PM

Seriously, Texas should drop behind TCU and Cinci for this performance even if they manage to win.

mauchow · 12-05-2009, 10:06 PM

lol so close

mauchow · 12-05-2009, 10:07 PM

Why anybody would run a slow developing play in the endzone beats me.

And they convert, dang it.

Radii · 12-05-2009, 10:07 PM

Well, I suppose I'd rather have this game in the hands of the offense with 6 minutes left instead of the defense. Silver linings!

JonInMiddleGA · 12-05-2009, 10:12 PM

In case anyone not watching is wondering why the score was stuck on 33-33 for a while, Clemson had an OL apparently break a bone & is being carted off now.

They just hit the PAT to go up 34-33.

Galaxy · 12-05-2009, 10:13 PM

WOW! Go Red!

mauchow · 12-05-2009, 10:14 PM

McCoy just got jacked up and somehow the Nebraska DB came up with the ball.

Danny · 12-05-2009, 10:15 PM

big play there! They need a field goal to put it in the hands of the defense

mauchow · 12-05-2009, 10:15 PM

Wow. Nebraska's second biggest play of the game right there..

All they need is their fourth field goal.

That was an impressive play.

RainMaker · 12-05-2009, 10:16 PM

Where was that spread option all game?

JonInMiddleGA · 12-05-2009, 10:16 PM

Gotta go for it here, even inside our own 30.

mauchow · 12-05-2009, 10:16 PM

YESSSS. First down and more! FIELD GOAL RANGE!

Burn the clock!

JonInMiddleGA · 12-05-2009, 10:17 PM

1st down GT on 4th & inches from their own 24. Inside 5 minutes now.

mauchow · 12-05-2009, 10:18 PM

The way this game has been going, Nebraska is going to miss the field goal anyways and Texas will back into the championship game.

Danny · 12-05-2009, 10:18 PM

Its going to end up all on the kicker here.

RainMaker · 12-05-2009, 10:19 PM

Yeah, part of me thinks they should take a shot at a first down since Texas is really playing the run. I'd go back to that spread option and let Lee keep it.

mauchow · 12-05-2009, 10:21 PM

Well, this kicker was listed at the beginning of the game as a key player to watch.......

Eaglesfan27 · 12-05-2009, 10:21 PM

I hate when teams go conservative on these relatively long FG's..

mauchow · 12-05-2009, 10:21 PM

DRILLED IT.

C'mon Husker D.

Eaglesfan27 · 12-05-2009, 10:22 PM

At least he made it. Now, the defense just needs to hold!

Galaxy · 12-05-2009, 10:22 PM

I keep getting sick of the BCS Chaos line.

mauchow · 12-05-2009, 10:22 PM

I love seeing Mack nearly shitting his pants and the look of McCoy like, "oh, shit.."

Dr. Sak · 12-05-2009, 10:23 PM

How can you kick the ball OOB??

Lathum · 12-05-2009, 10:23 PM

Jesus, and Nebraska kicks it out of bounds

mauchow · 12-05-2009, 10:23 PM

It is chaos. Chaos to the point where Florida could still end up in the NC game..

Galaxy · 12-05-2009, 10:23 PM

DUMB play.

sabotai · 12-05-2009, 10:23 PM

Playing it safe with 1:49 to go...can't help but think that will bite them in the ass. I know they have shut down McCoy all game, but still. He's a damn good QB and you just don't give damn good QBs time like this.

EDIT: Just as I type this, kickoff goes out of bounds....

Lathum · 12-05-2009, 10:24 PM

even if Texas wins, have they really shown they deserve to play for a national championship?

Dr. Sak · 12-05-2009, 10:24 PM

Horsecollar

sabotai · 12-05-2009, 10:24 PM

Horse collar tackle. More yards for Texas.

mauchow · 12-05-2009, 10:24 PM

one play is all it took for Texas to win.. lmfao

I hope so. I want chaos to cause more influential people to push for a playoff.

And another penalty helps out Texas..

JonInMiddleGA · 12-05-2009, 10:24 PM

GT 2nd & 5 at the Clemson 15, 1:25 left, down 34-33.

mauchow · 12-05-2009, 10:25 PM

2 yard loss. Me likey.

Right now we're sitting at about a 46 yarder.

bronconick · 12-05-2009, 10:25 PM

Wow, all that work, and blow it on two plays.
