Exactly. I saw the kick go out of bounds and thought, "geez, they shot themselves in the foot!" And then the HCT: "they just shot the other foot!"

FWIW, I am a huge Nebraska fan as I have a great uncle who was the backfield coach under Devaney and Osborne and Nebraska has no one to blame but itself. The offense was horrendous the kick out of bounds was atrocious and the HCT sealed the deal.

I do however question (understand I do not attribute the loss to this at all) the two PI calls against Nebraska toward the end of the game. Ball seemed uncatchable to me both times. Thoughts, or was I just looking at these calls through my fan glasses?

Congrats to Texas on escaping your way into the BCS National Championship!
