The next time Kreutzmakes a low tackle will be the first.

Nebraska fans have got to be absolutely losing their minds right now with the penalties and just utterly baffling playcall to cost them points

Laughery man… great strength and balance

aaeismacgychel · 2026-11-06T19:38:07-0600

Looks like Houser might be having a tough time gripping the ball. Passes look to be floating on him

Mr. Roberts · 2026-11-06T19:38:51-0600

These announcers are beginning to annoy me.

LFOD · 2026-11-06T19:39:40-0600

Huge first down there

Illinifan533 · 2026-11-06T19:39:55-0600

Houser, you could have at least tried to throw that ball away....

Jimbo · 2026-11-06T19:40:09-0600

That’s a drive killer.

aaeismacgychel · 2026-11-06T19:40:35-0600

First bad snap of the season for Renfro. He’s been so solid for us this year

FloridaMan · 2026-11-06T19:40:46-0600

Would anyone like to win a game tonight? Could have fooled me.

Jimbo · 2026-11-06T19:41:28-0600

I guess that’s not a drive killer.

TentakilRex · 2026-11-06T19:41:36-0600

3rd down Clement

aaeismacgychel · 2026-11-06T19:41:42-0600

Great play by Houser there. Nice burst to avoid the sack and pick that up

Not so fast, my friend

Second place is 1st loser · 2026-11-06T19:42:53-0600

It stinks, but if there's ANY question....fall on it and live to fight for the next play. The last thing you want is to make the situation worse by trying to pick it up and have it take a bad hop.

FloridaMan · 2026-11-06T19:43:02-0600

Well, the good news is we are not usually great in the first quarter. So, at least we are not down!

Iamgroot · 2026-11-06T19:43:39-0600

I swear that last play had to be the slowest handoff in the the history of football and if course with Lunney you know exact where it was going to go smh

DeonThomas · 2026-11-06T19:44:28-0600

Loving it so far!

Already in FG territory. Moving the ball on offense. And we get the ball to start the 2nd half. (And we have just one 5-yard penalty to their ten.)

Lordfvdge64 · 2026-11-06T19:44:40-0600

That Jordan Anderson carry was trash, give the freshman carries. He will charge forward and fight for yards.

Anderson runs about as hard and fast as a morbidly obese person on one of those motorized Walmart carts

Yep absolutely the right move to just fall on it

The play is going to be a little slower because Hauser has the option to pull it and roll out. It's his job to read what's going on in front of him. Made the wrong read.

Mr. Roberts · 2026-11-06T19:47:24-0600

Now that is a drive killer.

aaeismacgychel · 2026-11-06T19:47:27-0600

Tripping?

ChiTown · 2026-11-06T19:47:41-0600

We’re just shooting ourselves in the foot.

TentakilRex · 2026-11-06T19:47:54-0600

That kinda sucked
