The Nebraska Cornhuskers host Ohio State this weekend, and oh, how the mighty have fallen. Once Tom Osborne hit a walkoff in 1998, this program cratered, right? Not as much as you might think… I certainly remember a return to Earth for the former gold standard of football in the Midwest (three National Championships from 1994-1997), but Nebraska didn’t just go away when their Hall of Fame coach hung up his whistle. Conversely, they had a few different coaches compile solid records, but those men were shown the door because nine or ten wins “just wasn’t up to standard”.
