I was just listening to the Husker Game Show on the radio while I was driving. We often make fun of anyone who says that refs have been over zealous on calls against us and underwhelming on calls against other teams that we play. They had one of their stat guys do some research. He found it has been 22 games since a Nebraska opponent was called for holding on a pass play that was accepted by us. The last one was Illinois in 2016. I'm curious if any other schools have even a 10 game stretch.

I'm not saying we haven't had problems with our OL holding. Replay shows that most are legitimate. The stat that I wanted to draw attention to was our opponents not getting called for holding on a pass play in 22 games. Todays offenses don't just pass on third down. Granted many offenses get the ball out quickly before there is much engagement.
