Ten.
Six times on Saturday, Northwestern faced a third and ten situation. Four times, the chains moved, with two fourth down conversions.
A ten yard touchdown return of an Adrian Martinez fumble after being sacked.
And ten straight losses for Nebraska, a streak that began last November against these same Wildcats.
Yes, the rest of the college football world is laughing at Nebraska’s situation. And rightfully so. If it were Alabama, Ohio State or Southern Cal in this situation, I’d guarantee you that Nebraska fans would be chuckling and guffawing like everyone else. So there’s no point in getting indignant about it.
