Commentary |
• Sipple: “Wisconsin exposed so many of Nebraska's deficiencies that it's hard to know where to start.” • Stryker: “The only one who had a worse night than Martinez at Camp Randall Stadium was Tim Beck.” |
• Chatelain: “Bo Pelini and Tim Beck want to build an offense around Martinez? Fine. But stick to what the kid does well.” • Bishop: “The biggest mistake of all was getting away from who you are.” |
• Shatel: “Relying on a heavy dose of Martinez in the pocket is a ticket to meltdowns.” • Zatechka: “I have some serious questions about Beck's ability to call a game.” |
