There was a lot to love and a lot to be concerned about after the Huskers 33-28 loss to the Buffs on Saturday. To me, one stat seemed WAAYY out of place...like “the Westboro Baptist Church Youth Choir at a gay bar” out of place.
Nebraska rushed for 329 yards. I have play by play data on 159 Nebraska games since 2006 and Nebraska has rushed for more than 329 yards only 13 times. It won all of those games. In fact, prior to Saturday Nebraska’s previous highest rushing total in a loss was 282 yards versus Wisconsin in 2012.
