Nebraska coach Bo Pelini said he would try to contact Missouri coach Gary Pinkel to discuss Chase Daniel's comments about the Cornhuskers being a dirty team. The Tigers star quarterback said a Nebraska player spit on him before Saturday night's game, which Missouri won 52-17. Daniel also told reporters after the game that Nebraska players threw footballs at the Tigers as they were warming up. Pelini said he didn't hear about Daniel's comments until after he woke up Sunday morning.

Spitters are quitters

October 6, 2008  07:04 AM ET

Well that sucks, Move on!

October 6, 2008  08:05 AM ET

Why go to the media with that?

October 6, 2008  08:24 AM ET

This sounds like whining. It's football! Not figure-skating. I'm surprised to hear Daniels complaining to the media about it, but he needs to suck it up and move on.

Nebraska players don't know any better, that's how they were raised.

October 6, 2008  08:49 AM ET

Just flick a booger at 'em!

October 6, 2008  08:53 AM ET

I've also heard that they called him mean names. but thats' just a rumor at this point.

October 6, 2008  09:20 AM ET

It's done. Move on to the next opponent.

October 6, 2008  09:21 AM ET

well he was beating the crap out of Neb... I might have spit on him 2 after maybe the 3rd td

Remember, their original name was "The BUG EATERS" .......... what would you expect.

October 6, 2008  10:03 AM ET

52-17? Leave well enough alone, Chase.

Surely your stupid comment is the result of being intoxicated?

HAHAHAH, I agree with THE TRUTH, what is that guy even talking about?!

Chase Daniel is the REAL DEAL though and he killed my team in the Cotton Bowl last year...saw the destruction live and in person. He's getting spit on because they're trying to see if he falters. Daniel should not have said anything to prove that it doesn't bother him. Let's see if this affects his game for the rest of the season. I hope not.

Spitting on somebody is the ultimate sign of disrespect. I guess Daniels showed them not to disrespect a heisman hopeful again.

October 6, 2008  12:35 PM ET

Hmmm.... the hucksters never had any problem being "classy" (wink, wink, nudge, nudge) when THEY were running up the score. Payback's a *****, ain't it, Big Dead?

Why dont he take his ball and go home!!! What a baby. Play the game and go on. He is a great player. Now he has a reputation of a baby. From now till the end of the season all people will talk about is him being a baby not his great stats or wins. You have a chance to win the big12, maybe even the bcs champ. game. And the Heisman. But now all you will hear is they spit on me wha wha wha!!!

Idiots!! Why spit on a guy and make him mad before the game!! Maybe if you hadn't spit on him, you wouldn't have gotten your a@@es kicked so bad!!! However, Daniel should have done something about it then rather than leaked it to the media after the game, seems kind of immature and would not prove anything.
