Lined up for their first punt without a punter and took a penalty in remembrance of their punter who was killed in a car accident this summer.

While stadium on its feet. Players on sideline taking a knee. Very classy. Nice gesture.

Yeah, that was. Just read about it:

The kicker from Wisconsin wore the punter's number, too.

I shudder to think what kind of tribute we'll see from Penn State then ...

Fresno State then declined the penalty. Nice all around.

Denied for both teams.

1) Punters don't matter
2) You play to win the game

If Nebraska wanted to do a nice tribute, they would play the entire season without a punter.

Why can't the punter and the placekicker be the same guy? Kicking a ball is kicking a ball. At least half these guys were soccer players anyway; it's not like they've been punting since they left the womb and know no other life.

The coach punted on 4th and 4 at the 40. The game should have been stopped and the coach should have been crucified right there on the field.

Wouldn't that mean turning over on downs with better field position than had Nebraska punted?

No, because you replay the down.
