Guys, you beat KU 14-8 last year in Lincoln. Not like you exactly ran them off the field. KU had no offense, that was their issue, but in the Colorado game our current QB came back and has done a serviceable job. Now we sorta have some offense...
But our defense is as good as any, maybe you missed how we have beaten Brad smith 3 years runnning and held him to 179 yard Passing AND running the week after you all gave up 480 to him. We do have a defense.
You could not run on us (22 yards...), could not pass, and because you got only 7 first downs, your defense wore down and the floodgates eventually opened. Our offense had a hard time with your defense as well, but they managed to get a few more first downs and that was the difference. FOr the first quarter and a half, you guys could not do anything on offense.
We deserve some love from the Huskers anyway. What about in 1993 when a mediocre KU team could have kicked an extra point and tied undefeated Nebraska? but our coach did not want to ruin your perfect record with a tie, so we went for 2, missed, and you all got to go to the national championship game. Auburn woulda played for the title had we hung a tie on you, and with the streak of losses we have had, it would have been easy to see why we would take a tie. I think you all should credit our defense a little and throw us a bone. We have suffered enough.
Best of luck to you finishing out...
