Liveblogging Texas versus Nebraska

Mack Brown going for his 100th win at Texas. That's 1 conference championship for every 100 victories. Or 1 conference championship equals 100 wins in dog years.

Still showing the end of Colorado at Tech. Tech trying to prevent their 2nd straight loss. Colorado trying to prevent their 3rd straight.

Bill Callahan is not to be outdone. He's trying to prevent his 4th straight loss.

ABC decides to watch the final 2 minutes instead of switching to Texas.

Cosby returns the opening kickoff and fumbles to himself.

DJ announcing the starting lineup. Ron Franklin was expecting Terrance Nunn.

Nebraska corner read the blitz route. Incomplete.

Nebraska safety read the blitz route. Short gain.

That's one run attempt against Nebraska's worst run defense in history.

Bobino whiffs in the backfield. Nine yard run.

Marlon Lucky is a good cutback runner.

Another first down run. Nebraska is playing without two starting offensive linemen.

Nice play by Orakpo.

We're running out of the I with Lokey. We had to feel out Nebraska. Didn't know coming in whether they could stop the run or not.

Nebraska is on all of our blitz routes.

Nebraska attempting their first pass. Gets 6 when they needed 15.

ABC considers switching back to Tech-Colorado.

The 'Oh Face' guy from Office Space is doing commercials for Allstate.

Jordan Shipley morphed into Quan Cosby on that play. Et tu, Ron Franklin?

Davis says 'fuck it.' Spreads them out to stop them from blitzing. And then runs the option with McCoy who gets hit hard.

Nebraska says 'fuck it' and blitzes anyway. They'll rightfully concede 4 yards per catch.

Backup linebackers are in. Two runs gets Nebraska 5 yards. The one has nothing to do with the other.

Great play by Roy Miller. I guess he'll be our fullback next year.

Another 2 runs gets 3 yards.

Good call by Nebraska on 4th and 1.

And the quarter mercifully comes to an end.

Michael Jenkins pushed off on that play. I thought so at the time, and I still think so.

Georgia leading Florida 14-7 in the World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party. And the only time jorts are considered cocktail attire.

Field goal makes it 3-3.

It's cool playing down to the level of your opponent. At home. When they've been destroyed 3 games in a row. And their staff is going to be fired at the end of the year.

Nebraska calls time out because they only have 10 men on the field. The 11th was helping Kevin Cosgrove pack up his stuff.

Rollout pass on 3rd and 2.

Nice punt. If Nebraska drives 93 yards, we should fire our entire athletic department.

Shitty camera work by ABC. How many times are they going to be late showing the play?

Nebraska runs out of time outs with 11 minutes left in the 2nd quarter. Nice job, Mackovic Brown.

Against a Nebraska team ranked #26352 against the run, we've thrown it 11 times and run it 9.

We should switch game plans with Nebraska.

Great play by Ishie O&%$%^$.

We blitz and Nebraska picks up the first down on a screen. Trade game plans.

Nebraska has controlled the time of possession.

I'd like to watch Callahan and Brown play a chess match.

Ron Franklin calls a reception by Cosby an interception.

We are unwatchable on offense.

McCoy is a scrambler, not a runner.

A monkey playing Tecmo Bowl could design a better offense.

Nice camera shot of a half asleep Texas crowd.

At some point maybe we should think about making Nebraska pay for blitzing every play. Wait. rpongett has video evidence that Nebraska only blitzed 72.237% of the time. We're doing what we should be doing.

We need to take Vince out and put in Chance Mock. Only way to slow down this Washington State blitz.

And we naturally miss the field goal.

Okam reads the screen.

It's hard playing linebacker being our defensive line.

Nebraska now actually has a chance to score. Thankfully they've pissed away their timeouts.

Wide open touchdown. We are a joke.

Playing to run out the clock before punting, Nebraska goes 80 yards and scores.

Now we fucking run a draw.

And we find Finley with 7 seconds left in the half.

Nebraska sacks McCoy to end the half.

ABC is showing the 'highlights' from the first half. There were 3 of them. Nebraska is winning the explosive highlight plays 2-1.

Starting linebackers are in. You have to dance with the one who mouthed off to three guys and got your ass kicked at the dance.

Keller is 13-17.

Nebraska is 5-10 on 3rd downs. Make that 6-11.

When do Bluebonnet Bowl tickets go on sale?

We respond with 4 runs from the I and two passes out of the offset I. Punt.

And ABC misses yet another play.

Announcers talking about how Texas hasn't made any adjustments and don't use any shifts or motion to confuse the Nebraska defense. Duh.

3rd and 1. Call a pass!

Is Roger Clemens at every game? Stop interviewing him.

Why did Charles go east and west on that run?! Oh yeah, there were 3 defenders in his face when he got the ball.

Field goal is good.

It's about time for Nebraska to run back a kickoff.

USC just lost to Oregon 24-17.

Sergio Kindle makes the tackle on 3rd and 1 to prevent the first.

Our biggest gain of the game on a broken play.

Nebraska is run blitzing the fuck out of our delay.

Field goal makes it 17-9. When was the last time we failed to score a touchdown at home?

Roy Miller is out of the game with an ankle injury. Do we have any fullbacks we can put at DT?

Nebraska runs it on 3rd and 7 and converts. You can guess our personnel.

Nice play by Bobino. 3rd and 9.

Only took Davis 3 quarters to figure out what everyone else in college football knew coming in.

Finley gets held on the 2 point try but no flag.

8 yard run by Lucky. Guess who our linebackers are.

If we put Chiles in, they wouldn't be able to stop us.

And we fucking call a pass. A fucking pass that gets intercepted.

Nebraska tries the sweep again for 3 yards. Guess who are linebackers are.

Charles is gone. 86 yards.

There is no reason for us to call another pass in this game.

Sergio Kindle kills the return man.

Kindle with yet another tackle.

Kindle hits Keller as he throws it. It falls incomplete. Why the fuck doesn't he start?

Okam strips Keller and picks it up. He doesn't get too far.

3rd and 13. Ok, one pass.

The play we haven't seen since TCU. Finley gets the first.

Charles ends it.

I think he has over 200 yards in the second half, almost all of it in the 3rd quarter.

Callahan wears ladies' glasses.

Charles went 9-190 in the 4th quarter with 3 tds. Unbelievable. Afterwards Mack will credit Greg Davis.

Nebraska goes for it on 4th and 10 and converts. Mack applauds. Does he still listen to 50 Cent?

Callahan is looking at his hotel bill. Doesn't remember taking a Tab from the mini bar.

Easy fade route to Purify makes it 28-23.

They get the 2 point conversion. Onside kick coming.

Brandon Foster recovers it.

We could have named the score. Instead we'll win by 3 at home.

Damn that Charles and his east west running style!

He went over 1,000 with that run and will finish with 290 on the day.

Newton had the apple fall on his head. Greg Davis had McCoy come out for a play.

Cleve has his hand on Mack's shoulder while calling him 'Boss.'
