What a difference a week makes. On an unforgettable day that shocked the Nos. 2, 3, 4, 8 and 9-ranked college football teams, Nebraska’s Blackshirts renewed their confidence and showed shades of swagger in a 24-17 win over Minnesota Saturday night.
That’s no small achievement when you consider the grit of coming off a 62-3 loss at Ohio State and the grind of a season that had depleted the team’s offensive line and sidelined its record-setting quarterback.
And let’s not forget the gravel road that back-to-back losses can create in any team’s psyche and soul, even though the Huskers won the first seven games of the season.
