Alamo Bowl - Texas 26, Iowa 24 (Dec. 30, 2006)

He got hit hard on a goal-line sneak early in the Kansas State game, and sat out the rest of the game. They said that he did NOT suffer a concussion, but he wasn't the same in the aTm game. He got a pinched nerve at the end of that game, on a different play that the blatant cheap shot he was given by an aTm player following an interception.

He did look awfully good today on the play where he scrambled left, directed the receiver up the sideline, and then squared his shoulders and delivered the ball over the DB.
Yeah, I do recall that Kstate game as well.

Actually, the play that provoked my posting the question was his misfire near the EZ, lead his WR by about 15 yards. Maybe it was just a timing issue/miscommunication.

He just doesn't strike me as poised as he was earlier in the year. I suppose the KState hit and the aTM cheap shot have him a little gun shy.

I heard Ferentz's quote from the ref, saying that the 'motion man covered up the receiver' that caught the ball on the TD that was called back (wuold have made it 21-3); but I need to see that replay since I missed it.

EDIT - They explained it well just before the start of the second half. The motion man moved into a spot at the end of the line, but was covered up by an outside receiver.
