1. Keep it going. Nebraska’s been better about getting a score on the board early in the game, doing so in just four plays against Northwestern. But those have been followed by long dry spells. Even a 10-0 lead would have been a great position to be in. Score early and then do it again.
2. Distribution center. Adrian Martinez completed balls to eight different players against the Wildcats. That kind of versatility will serve the Huskers well against Minnesota.
3. Penalties (like always). It’s become a staple in this area, but it remains true.
