Wisconsin waited until the second half to embarrass Nebraska. Ohio State decided to start from the beginning.
Here’s what some in the media had to say:
Steven Sipple: Nebraska’s lack of fight gives anti-Riley faction plenty of ammunition. Lincoln Journal Star
I asked Riley about his team's lack of fire to begin the contest. He didn't see it the way I did. You know they say about witnesses to a crime — two people can see the same crime in a much different way.
Riley said Ohio State's big early lead was more about Nebraska simply being unable to make a play against a high-grade outfit.
