Just after the 4th down pass to Stanley Morgan in the corner of the endzone frittered to the turf, I found myself leaning against the kitchen counter talking in dejected tones to a few of my friends who were in attendance at my house both to watch the game and for my family’s annual Halloween party. The topic of officiating dominated our immediate post-game conversation before giving way to how Nebraska could go forward and attain all of the goals that are still out there for the Huskers. As the post-game anger began to dissipate (although it still remains) I realized that this fan base can gnash its collective teeth and slam its collective fists against the posts all it wants about officiating, but at the end of the day, Nebraska just did not make enough consistent plays offensively to win the game, despite the heroic efforts of the Blackshirts.
