Last weekend was a huge eyeopener for Husker Nation. We were all able to see exactly how far this team is from competing for championships. Granted Nebraska is still undefeated in conference play, but I’m guessing Nebraska is going to be down a game in conference play after this weekend. Nebraska will be starting its conference play against the Michigan Wolverines this Saturday in another morning game, which I absolutely despise.
This week I’m going to lump penalties, special teams and turnover margin into one reason. Penalties have killed the Huskers in the first two games this season.
