The Huskers did it again.
Yep, yet another one score loss. Would have won? Get a first down or two in the fourth quarter, and yes. Could have won? Absolutely, if they could have defended that Graham Mertz throw to Isaac Guerendo better. Should have won?
Nope. Wisconsin outgained Nebraska 318 yards to 171, and held the ball nearly 37 minutes to Nebraska’s 23. It’s pretty much the same story we’ve been lamenting the last two seasons: Nebraska plays hard, doesn’t give up, but is flawed enough to come up short.
Frustrating for fans? Absolutely. Maddening?
