Sure, the No. 16 Badgers dominated time of possession and wore down the visitors with its powerful rushing attack. And yes, Wisconsin looked oftentimes like the superior outfit all around, its program four years built under head coach Paul Chryst compared to five games under Husker head man Scott Frost.
But the 80,051 on hand under the lights might have sweated far more against a winless opponent had Nebraska not brought its pistol along and continued shooting itself in the foot over the course of a 41-24 loss that drops Frost’s program to 0-5 on a most dreadful autumn.
