Want to know the worst part about that game? If Tommy Armstrong looks to the left on the final play, Nebraska might have scored a touchdown. Nebraska had mirrored smash routes to both sides of the field, MSU had a total coverage break down to the field but Armstrong never looked. Instead, he looked to the boundary (probably because no timeouts), the 3rd string WR to that side ran the wrong route, caused confusion and panic and an INT.
Nebraska had 2 completely uncovered WRs to the field on that play. Armstrong keys on one receiver every play and when it isn't there, he panics. Hard to blame him for panicking the way the offensive line got manhandled all game but man, if he works his progressions that game might look differently. Have to credit MSU for attacking constantly and keeping him off balance.
Sidenote, what the hell is wrong with Mark Pelini at center? He snapped the ball early before anyone else was ready 4 times in that game, on both 2 PT conversions, 1 3rd down and 1 4th down.
