Indiana started with the ball. The unheralded and previously terrible Nebraska defense forces a punt on the Hoosiers’ first possession.
Nebraska 7 - 0
Our beloved Huskers kaboomed their way down the field in three players. Anthony Grant rushed for 4 yards. Casey Thompson hit Trey Palmer for 34 yards, then hit Oliver Martin for another 34 yards.
Nebraska’s offensive line provided exemplary protection for Thompson.
Everyone went insane. Then they remembered Nebraska did the same thing to Oklahoma before getting stomped into the ground.
First Quarter End
The two teams traded possessions, neither with advantage.
