Mike Riley liked this picture.

He liked most of it, anyway. He didn't like the dropped passes. The ball was on the turf a bit too often in general. But he certainly liked that his Nebraska football team handled Illinois with relative ease Friday night.

He thinks his team played its most complete game of the year in the 28-6 triumph before 43,058 at Memorial Stadium.

Yes, this was a good picture for Riley's program.
