Pelini's postgame comments were that the team is not focused and they are making too many mental mistakes. Could it be the kids are playing scared because they know Pelini will go postal on them.
Bo, in his post game comments, almost rountinely critizied the players for missing assignments.
This might be true to the certain situations. I am not sure if it applied to all. We have to realize that the players from the other team also had their assignments. If our players could not reacti to the changes in the play by the team, it could be that our players were not as good.
As a result of their better play calling or superior execution, our players might not be able to perform their assignments. Therefore , IMO, our guys were not as good or not being coached better. It was not just about our players missing assignments. They other guys were just better.
