The Michigan Nebraska game that year was the most electric atmosphere I’ve ever experienced

The Kick Six does that to me. I’ll turn off a highlight video quick.

Hookem lil boi

@@TheCheffer76I feel the same about Desmond Howards punt return lol

I remember being a senior in high school for this game at a huge watch party at my buddy’s house. There was about 15 of us all losing our minds when Suh was absolutely dominating for 4 quarters. I cannot begin to describe how dead and helpless that room was when Texas made that FG. Just like you I feel like it really left a huge impact on me as a Husker fan. Out of all of our recent struggles this game still pops in my head as one of my worst Husker memories lol

That sack will never leave my memory. Just tossed him like a big ol sack of potatoes lmao

I'm not a Nebraska fan but he is the most dominant defensive player I've seen in my life. The way you had to even try to guard him was ridiculous. Teams were sending 3 guys at him at times it was unreal.

Charles Woodson was the 1st primarily defensive player to win the Heisman, Ndamukong Suh should've been the 2nd. Dude was unreal.

He’s also the dirtiest player ever

you were a chld when he played there xD like that could make any impact on you xD

​@@saintbrownthetrojansadly, not even that would have mattered. For whatever reason, back in 2009, the voters still mailed in their votes. So the Heisman was already decided before conf. Championship weekend.

Yup. This game and the Longhorn Network.

No, it was really only Nebraska’s whiny excuse for a move they would have absolutely made anyway. (1) The call was correct, and (2) Nebraska admins would have to have been braindead to turn down a spot in one of the two most demographically secure conferences.

Why did this ruin your childhood? Nebraska wasn’t playing for anything in this game? They were a 3 loss team ranked #22. At very best Nebraska played for an orange bowl if they win. Nebraska gets what it deserves for biting the hand that feeds them. Now they’re irrelevant bottom feeders in a cold weather football conference. Lmao wimps

How was that allowed before the NIL stuff? He just didn’t get paid for it?

Well you couldn't see that because CFB players werent allowed to do endorsements until they changed the NIL rules

Blatant lying

He set the stage for Nebraska football to come - we have Chris Simms meals here in Omaha, and Doug McDermott burgers in bars. One of the guys who really helped College players get the respect, and money, that they deserve.

@@daniels8112Oh, he got paid. NCAA doesn’t like talking about it though.

Thank goodness Texas won 😊

Cincinatti wasnt a mid major at that point...

I'd tend to agree. They were in the Big East at the time,which had BCS Bowl tie ins. However he listed the Big East as Mid Major in his graph.

He also accidentally said that NU won the Big XII South

It really should have been. The Big East was a joke compared to the MWC and WAC in the BCS post 2003.

i was sitting next to you. it was intense!

It is not. The worst decision the big 8 made was to allow Texas in the conference. If not for Texas greed the original conference sans Texas would more than likely still be intact and be better for it. Nebraska was screwed. There is nothing else to say. There were 0's on the clock. Period.

@@ZakJJ1 Sucks to Suh

@@ZakJJ1 there weren’t lol. We had one second

Did you watch the video? The clock had 1 second on it when the ball hit the ground.but nice try! ​@@ZakJJ1

I was at the game vs Colorado and for as long as I live, I’ll never forget the booing against Chris Simms, and then when he was finally benched, Major throwing a bomb to BJ Johnson. God I hated Chris Simms and his dad

I’m a diehard Bammer and totally agree. While I was thrilled that Mark Ingram brought home the first Heisman Trophy in Alabama football history, I absolutely concede that Suh was the BEST player that season. He single handedly kept Nebraska in this game. Nebraska’s completely lack of offense cost them the title.

I second that. I grew up during the post-apocalyptic era of Nebraska hearing about the glory days from my parents and everyone else who was around in the 90s. I'd love to see how we got to that from what we used to be. I mean it will be painful to watch but definitely informative.

I've wondered the same. Nebraska to me seems like a perfect team for that format because their decline has been so long. They lost the BCS against Miami, and they've spiraled into a hole that they've never really gotten out of.

The Offensive line was atrocious that whole season. It’s unbelievable the numbers colt put up with that caliber of O line

@@austinperkins6820Yep. They were awful. Pretty amazing that Texas somehow went undefeated before the NC game with an OL that bad.

There is no scenario Cincinatti should have gone to the title game over TCU. It was criminal that UT went to the title game over TCU, but UC would have even less of an argument. - TCU beat more ranked teams than UT & UC - TCU beat higher ranked teams than UT & UC - TCU beat ranked teams by a larger margin than UT & UC (vs UC - 21.6 vs 2 MOV) - TCU had the #1 ranked defense by ypg and #2 by ppg (UT was #6 and UC was #48) - TCU had the #4 ranked offense (UT was #5 and UC was #3) Cincinatti shouldnt have even been ranked above Boise State. That ranking never made any sense. Boise State outclassed UC in every statistical category and beat #7 Oregon by 18. UC only had one more ranked game then them beating #15 Pitt by 1 and #16 WVU by 3 in OT. Boise State and UC even had two common opponents and it wasnt even close: - vs Miami: UC won 37-24; Boise State won 48-0 - vs Fresno State: UC won 28-20; Boise State won 57-24

@@MattBuild4 let me guess- TCU fan?

@@wanini24 Actually no. Just annoyed with the narratives of bs sport. As a fan i wanted Boise State in the game. But they didnt really play anyone outside of Oregon. This was the common narrative as to why Mid-Majors were never good enough for a title bid. But 2008-2010 proved how bs that narrative truly was. 08 Utah beat 5 Top 25 teams and went undefeated, but was still ranked behind 6 teams with worse records and less ranked wins. 09 TCU beat more ranked teams than everyone besides Alabama, literally had a higher SOS, but somehow that didnt matter. 10 - The perfect illustration of how bad the system truly was. 2010 TCU first team in NCAA history to go undefeated and get jumped out of a championship game despite more than twice as many ranked wins as Oregon and statistically superior by 100X than auburn, but that didnt matter. TCU beats a Top 6 teams on the road by 40 points and drops in the rankings..... And the cherry on top and unranked 8-5 Big East Champ getting the nod for the BCS over #7 12-1 Boise State, because they were a mid major..... Bruh - 2010 Boise State averaged a larger margin of victory than Big East Champ Uconn scored points per game - and it wasnt close (36.7 vs 20.2). BSU beat 4 T25 teams vs Uconn's 0. It doesnt get more obvious than that, that the system is completely f&cked..... These teams didnt make a title game not because of anything they did or didnt do, but because they didnt have the clout of money. Thats it. You realize this "sport" is a complete sham when you come to terms with this truth.

@@MattBuild4 Well if the 2009 BCS version of this problem still bothers you, I can only imagine what you think of today's system. BTW, I'd love to have seen Cincinnati take on TCU and Boise in 2009. SOS stats aside, I still like my Bearcats' odds against both teams.

You didn't get screwed, there was 1 second left. Great call by the refs.

@@somebody9889 I said we felt screwed. Big difference. We can't forget what was going on with the conference and the longhorn network at that time. There's a reason why the big 12 died and is dead and a shell of its self now.

⁠@@LordJudgement1818The Big 12 was always going to die. It was a great conference for 15 years, but it was always a demographic weakling compared to the Big Ten and the SEC, and as the money involved in the sport grew explosively, it was only a matter of time before the conference got dismembered.

​@@jasonrogers6454if Nebraska wins, Longhorn Network don't happen and I highly doubt Big 12 dies.

​@@somebody9889yet replay rule actually was broken, couldn't replay just for the clock yet they did. Bad call, only by Bebee to send Texas to BCS for money. That's all it was

GBR

how things never change

As I said at the time, if Nebraska's offense had been merely run-of-the-mill bad, they would have been 12-1. Instead, it was absolutely wretched. Joe Ganz having one more year would have put that team in the BCS.

Niles Paul running by himself for a touchdown just drops the ball. That Iowa State game was another of many knives to the heart. #GBR

Same here I was 8 living in Austin as a husker 😪

As a Texas fan who was at that game in Arlington, it was impressive how Suh and the Nebraska D had N in position to win. It was also clear to me that the last replay got it unquestionably right, and Texas got the correct one second back. I still deal with Nebraska fans who feel somehow robbed.?.?. The disillusion runs deep. 🙄

​@@737smartinlol delusion runs deep? Hmm considering that rule states you can't use replay to just check the clock. Never was that way in the NFL or up to this point. Bottom line only reason Texas got their way was Dan Bebee kissing a$$ for more money which lead to Big 12 going the way it is today.

Yep

Me too. I was at the game and felt like I got beat up. I also went to the Longhorn Sooner game earlier and it was also a defensive battle. They had Gerald McCoy.

Facts, Joshua Jackson. Facts.

Ironically the previous game Colt had to carry the team at A&M when the defense sprung a leak

I'm a Longhorn fan, but I'm being dead honest here. That offense was putrid and it's why Mack Brown was on his way out after this season.

The Big East was a P6 conference (there used to be six).

@@nwj03a big time agree. I was only addressing the fact he stated no team from the Big East had ever made it to the NCG and referred to them as a mid-major conference.

Big east wasn't a mid major at the time Their champion had an automatic spot in a BCS bowl

Yeah the graphic isn’t really correct

The Big East made it a "power 6" at the time. They would hold on to that automatic bid until the Big East/AAC split in 2013

Big East arguably was more than just a mid major. 2001 and 2002 both had 4 ranked teams of the 8 in the Big East, easily a P6 at the time. Although they continued to hold their automatic bid, it took a dent in '04 when Miami and Virginia Tech left. The conference itself phased out of football in '13, with the ACC taking some of the best remaining teams and the leftovers going to the newly created American conference. West Virginia left in '12 to the Big 12 I believe. If anyone has more accurate detail, feel free to correct me

the big east wasn't a Mid Major back then

Me too.

The anger from Husker fans wasn't that there was a second put back on. It's the fact that time on the clock was not a reviewable play at the time. The announcers even said so as a similar situation had occurred during the season and it wasn't reviewed. It was allowed here just so Texas would be in the championship game.

​@@heroesofthescapebingo, that's the problem people don't understand. The clock is not reviewed. It can only be changed with ball respotted, turnover and so on. But not the clock itself, it was Dan Bebee hands on this the whole way
