Thanks for posting. One for the archives indeed. Pretty sure there were a few people on here calling for Demens to benched after Air Force. Dont they feel silly now.

Nice job. Demens made 2 really good plays on that series.
I want a celebration gif of Denard and Devin's handshake after the first TD.
"A flute with no holes is not a flute. A donut with no hole is a danish"
If you can link me the video I'll gif it.
Did it look like, after they knocked their arms together, that Denard winced heavily and then couldn't move his arm much?
Let's not do that again boys....please.
At first, I thought the same thing - but seeing the replay, Denard reached down to catch the microphone/headset thingy that was knocked loose in the celebration. Not injury-related.
Anyway, if that kind of contact is going to make Denard wince in pain, we might as well right him off for the season. But again, I don't think that's what happened. I did see Wellman come over to him right after that though, maybe telling him to lay off the shoulder bumps for a while.
I didn't even realize how badly Jake Ryan had his guy and would've come in for the clean-up if Demens hadn't tackled so flawlessly. Dayumn.

This is why I sit on a couch and not stand on a sideline.
If you're going to hand off to the back plunging up the middle -- don't, uh, -- don't you need to account for the MIKE? I mean, like, assign a blocker to him? As in, I don't know, you know, make sure he's not COMING UNBLOCKED TO BLOW THE PLAY UP.
These football geniuses who get paid billions of dollars to design these high-efficiency offensive plays, they obviously know what they're doing, because I have no clue.
(No, really, I have no clue -- was that a schematic problem for the Cats, or, was Demens just outrageously blowing that up.)
We RPS-ed the shit out of that play. Can't put it on coulter or NW. We did our job on a coaching and execution level.
Man, all I think of when I see that is a song by Metallica's called whiplash! "Slashing all around, whiplash!"

That was blown up either way. They were probably reading a DT or a LB. however when you look at it had colter pulled the ball he had no shot there either. That play was blown up by the Michigan defense.
There is god, there is family, and then there is MICHIGAN FOOTBALL
Can someone make one of Pat Fitzgerald running around and jumping like an idiot?
It's the same old story. Boy finds girl, boy loses girl, girl finds boy, boy forgets girl, boy remembers girl, girls dies in a tragic blimp accident over the Orange Bowl on New Year's Day.
That pisses me off so much more seeing it again.

Honestly, seeing that made me feel like Northwestern deserved to lose. Completely inappropriate behavior by Fitzgerald, thinking they were going to win. Obviously God agrees with me, thus Roundtree magic catch and Demens smash.
Denard has spent the offseason working really hard and smiling at people.
I love how he comes out with the little no-kneed waddle, then he stops, sets his feet and PEWWWWWW!!! Straight up, and his feet and arms shoot out like he's in a 1996 Toyota Corolla commercial.
I always kinda, if not liked the guy, at least I respected him. This is just asinine.What a douche nozzle.
wouldn't celebrate that enthusiastically/prepubescently had their team just won the ncg
I do it for my love of the Streets
To be fair to Fitzgerald, he was doing it sarcastically because he felt he was getting jobbed on the calls all game, in particular the Hawthorne holding on the kick return TD.
Also to be fair to everyone other than Fitzgerald, every penalty NW got was legit and he acted like much more of a whingey little bitch than I ever would've imagined a middle linebacker would.
I bet Griese took a little joy in the booth on that ending after the clips they showed during the game..
Ive never seen a coach so happy over his qb getting hit out of bounds. Youd think hed want to go make sure the kid was ok first before celebrating
Every time an MGoBoard poster complains about a thread topic, God kills a baby panda.
I had the same exact thought. I'd like to request a gif of Fitzgerald putting two fists to the sky like a jackass as if he won the game after the Beyer penalty.
1) The penalty was Beyer's fault and he shouldn't have put himself in the situation to be called for a late hit.
2) As a HC, how do you celebrate your QB getting hit THAT quickly?
3) I love Greg Mattison but I felt that today's defense was the least dicplined I'd seen all year.
That was one of the most inappropriate and obnoxious things I've ever seen a CFB coach do on the sidelines. He jumped like Phil Mickleson did when he rolled in the winning putt at the Masters, not because NW won, or even scored, but because Michigan got called for a weak ass penalty.
Act your age Pat.
Sing to the colors that float in the light;
Hurrah for the Yellow and Blue!
The guy next to me asked who was the jackass jumping up and down. I said it was their coach and he just shook his head in disbelief.
Not defending Fitzgerald here, but that was hardly a "weak ass penalty." Beyer deserved that flag.
Your friendly neighborhood contrarian.
late hit out of bounds penalties only get called based on how violently people fall over. When they don't trip, no flag. If you are pushed into them and they trip over some stray chair, 15 yard penalty for you
I know, it was a good call, I just don't like Fitz. He was a very good player, and is a great coach -- but he's a d bag, and I wanted to emphasize his douche baggery.
Beyer was stupid, and I hope the coaches got all over him as he nearly cost his team the game due to a lack of discipline.
Sing to the colors that float in the light;
Hurrah for the Yellow and Blue!
Or how about when he threw his hands in the air like his team just won the National Title after the late hit by Beyer. That did not sit well with me, I thought that was a bit immature.
You know, Dude, I myself dabbled in pacifism once. Not in 'Nam of course.
Thank you! ask and ye shall receive!

I thought the Ross (was it Ross?) hit on Colter was similar but even better, though they got a first down on the play. Someone should GIF that.
Does it say Deke on the paper? Are there any other Dekes in your class?
thanks.

The more I watch this the more I appreciate the confusion caused by the way Mattison lined up our guys. I'm sure the UFR will be better than my take, but it looks like the guy who went after JMFR really should have gone after Demens. There is another blocker inside who releases to take on a linebacker, but has this whoa moment when he doesn't see anyone to block.
Funny. This play happened right in front of me but I couldn't see it. All I saw was the D-line players. They completely blocked Demens from my view and only after hearing the crowd erupt did I know we came up with the stop.
Go Blue! Always!
"we landed on the moon" is all I think when saw the Fitzgerald gif

...confidence is the stain they can't wipe off...
Penn State fans are livid about this and rightfully so but we're the ones who're really getting screwed. If the referees in the last two Nebraska games were halfway good at their jobs, there would be a real chance that we'd be playing Iowa next week for a chance to clinch a trip to the championship game.
