Husker fans are whining that the refs don't want them to be great again. lol
Here in Omaha, when I opened my internet today, there were three stories that said the refs were unfair to NU. But if you paid attention, all these stories were from Husker-friendly media.

To be fair, the linesman totally missed a first down that NU got right before halftime. He obviously lost track of who had the ball. It caused NU to waste a time out. The B1G has admitted the error after the fact. But it was a mistake, that was obvious. The ref saw two guys wrestling and assumed the ball carrier was one of them and marked the ball there.

I know we’ve handled mistakes like that in Texas favor well in the past.

Oregon has other good receivers but Tez Johnson was pretty electric for them. Rumor is a broken collarbone and done for the year.

Thamel isn't always correct but he says it is NOT a season-ender so good news for the Ducks.
