Have you ever found yourself holding out hope for the Nebraska Cornhuskers and their running game? Have you wondered why bad turnovers are better than a two yard gain? Throughout the year, the Huskers had a simple formula for winning right in their lap. However, the offense decided it was more important to throw passes than to win games.
The most evident example came in the loss to Illinois. Whether the coaches choked in the late-game situation, or there was a miscommunication on the call, the fact remains the Huskers decided not to call a run play.
