LOL...the defense just got lit up for almost 500-yards...any other club would have scored at least 5 TD's ... so the new plan is just not say anything but keep blaming Montgomery ...are you guys noit ashamed of yourselves yet?. Look we had 2 TD, 3 missed FGs and a dropped pass in the end-zone ...just in the first-half. Wells was good over all, quite clean at times; clearly progressing each game, as we were hoping. Play calling on both sides good. We finally had solid balance on D ...people are seeing what we will look like next year. SIU's OC knew exactly how to beat us ...watch the WVU game. They had, twins and trips out wide ...ran all plays at Moss and Rivers ...completely taking them out of the game.
We went up-tempo and scored in a couple of minutes ...but it worked. At the end SIU could have beaten anyone. Pelini was right in the post-game, we let SIU in this game. Some really shaky calls by the officials. Did you guys see that one-double foul and a no-call on a face-mask that the official had clearly seen and thrown the flag on. He was acting like he saw the other infractions, when he clearly was looking at the face-mask against Webb. That is really bad, someone needs to send a letter and footage to the conference. Special teams bad. Clearly Kennedy's ability to knock it out of the end-zone has been saving us all year. I kind of suspected, but it was validated today. Just a bad all-around effort on D, special teams ...and an O that cannot make-up for it by producing points. Best game Webb has had all year ... game ball. Nice punting today as well.
