taylor martinez leaving nebraska

If it’s true, Mizzou’s Big 12 North chances just improved. Also, perhaps, Mizzou can be thanked for throwing a little more adversity into the Pelini/Martinez relationship by injuring Martinez’s ankle. Thank you, Kenji. Nebraska blew a chance to clinch the Big 12 North Saturday night at College Station when they fell to Texas A&M 9-6.

Huskers quarterback Taylor Martinez was injured early in the game when his ankle was stepped on by a lineman during a running play. Head Coach Bo Pelini lost his mind during the game, seeing his offense do very little.

In the second quarter he chewed out Taylor Martinez on the sidelines, and throughout the game he was yelling at the refs, even earning an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty in the 4th quarter. Here’s the video of him chewing out Taylor Martinez in the second quarter:

The good news for Nebraska: Taylor Martinez is back in the game.

Martinez helped the Huskers convert a fourth down with a slippery run, and Roy Helu Jr. broke free for a 31-yard gain moments after that play.

But as the drive neared field goal range, Martinez lofted a pass too deep for a receiver, and Trent Hunter snagged it.
