This is not an excuse making article. Nebraska has clearly underperformed and I think we can see that Matt Rhule would agree. In fact he brought in a guy who hasn’t been in the building for more than two weeks to call plays in Dana Holgorsen with three games left in the season.
With that said....
Here are Nebraska’s four losses in Ohio State, Indiana, Illinois and UCLA
- Team ranked #2 in the College Football Playoff
- Team ranked #5 in the College Football Playoff
- Team with three losses against #4 Penn State, #1 Oregon and Minnesota
- Team with fives losses against #5 Indiana, #22 LSU, #1 Oregon, #4 Penn State and Minnesota
Maybe you are never as bad as you think you are.
