Nebraska fans were hoping for a turn around in the 2007 season when they took on the Texas A&M Aggiest on Saturday in Lincoln but a terrible second half stopped all that hoping. The Aggies outscored the Huskers 20-0 in the second half as the Huskers could not get anything going on offense.
Marlon Lucky had a career high 13 receptions for 125 yars, but only had 23 yards on eight attempts rushing the ball. Quentin Castille led the team with 60 yards on nine carries. Roy Helu chipped in with 39 yards on five carries.
Sam Keller had another bad day at the quarterback position. He finished 26 of 44 for 275 yards and one TD (To Purify), but had several poorly thrown balls, and still isn’t getting rid of the ball when he needs too. Keller is holding onto the ball way to long, and taking too many sacks. He needs to get a feel for the pocket and make his reads down the field faster.
Onto the defense, there were times where they played really good, but then they would let up a big play on a third down or, on first down Texas A&M would roll off 8 yard gains which set them up perfectly for a first down on the next play.
The defense wasn’t sure who had the ball multiple times and you could tell that with all the rushing yards that Aggies had during the game. Stephen McGee set career highs with 35 carries for 167 yards and Jorvorskie Lane rushed for 130 yards and four touchdowns for the Aggies.
Another big play that took a ton of momentum away from the Huskers was in the first half when Nate Swift called for a fair catch and fumbled the ball. Shortly after the fumble, Lane ran off a big TD run and A&M had all the momentum once again.
It doesn’t get any easier for the Huskers next week either. They will travel to Austin to face off against the Texas Longhorns. Prepare for another butt whoopin Husker fans.

We were hoping for some good old Husker fresh meat to lick our chops on, but it looks like all we’re going to get is well done, cause the Huskers are DUN!!!
Oh Well…our second and third teams will get a chance to play…..

Oh Longhorn Steady:
Isn’t nice that your second and third team gets to play this year. We would like no other than to kick your butt. We have to let you all win once in a great moon so enjoy while it lasts, for we will be back.
Go Huskers.

Longhorn Steady:
Don’t beat um up too bad cause we want to give them a good spankin too!!!! Maybe the Huskers ought to give their 2nd and 3rd teams a chance to play?? Can’t be any worse than what they put on the field now…Is it right they have the 114th ranked defense out of 119?

Hey all you X Huskers or whoever the “” you are, go ahead and jump ship. Hope you can swim for we will not be throwing you any life preservers.
HuskerPride says it all: you all need to get a life for writing all your crap on this sites is simply ridiculous.
Grow up………
Go Big Red.

LOL, I hope all you so called Husker fans jump ship. Can’t stay with a team when they are down? Have to find a new team because your other one isn’t winning?
C’mon that is terrible. If your a Husker fan, you are a Husker fan through the thick and the thin.
Jump ship, because you aren’t wanted anyways.
October 28th, 2007 at 2:17 pm
Hit the road all you fair weather pussies. You are Husker Fans anyway. True fans hang in there win or loose. You guys are probably the same ones in the stands booing the team.
Like it or not the team played one of the best games they’ve played this season. Give no respect, get no respect.
College football is not pro-football,there is no paycheck in their pocket and they don’t pick the coaches, Steve Peterson screwed up the season with the decisions he made. Don’t bail on the team, put the blame where it lies.
