I would have run the ball off tackle on that play but...
    Pass interference? Receiver slowed down and got tangled up, it was the correct no flag call.

    Trust his team? They didn’t do anything on offense w/o our help. U punt the ball and keep us backed up, u hold us and get the ball back.

    Dumb ass decision, it backfired. There is no what ifs when u lose!

    It looked to me like Durr tripped and fell down. If he touched their receiver it was pretty minimal. Agree good call on the official. Also agree bad call by Bielema. Especially at home. Punt the ball and make MSU drive the field or take your chances in OT. The only small defense I have is the wind may have factored into his decision although if that was the case, I'm not sure why you would have your QB throw it deep?

    I also agree why the deep pass? I’m just glad Fat Boy gambled, he played right into our strength which was defense.

    Because they watch game film and figured we’d bring the house and the secondary would bite on the play fake... like we’ve done many times this year.
