Look, I get it. 400th sellout, Nebraska is ranked again, and there is an air that Husker football could be on track to be its once dominant self. For Illinois to come into Memorial Stadium and look like the better team and win, it’s beyond frustrating on many levels. Illinois and the curse of fat boy Bielema got the better of us.
Blame the officials, blame the defense, blame the offense, blame the special teams, blame the fact Nebraska looked gassed in the 4th quarter and overtime. Point the finger (middle one especially) at everyone else. The biggest failure of them all, however, is failing to learn from it and getting better.
