Commentary |
• Bishop: “If you want to take that next step, it’s time to work on developing some poise.” • Husker Mike: “I don't think South Carolina out athleted Nebraska today. They out-executed Nebraska, especially down the stretch.” |
• Stryker: “Far too often, Bo disrupts his own team.” • Hamar: “The margin of error for Bo Pelini’s team is pretty slim.” • Chatelain: “A day that began with promise ended with an implosion.” |
• Sipple: “I expect much more from Nebraska than what I saw in this outing.” • Shatel: “The better team finds a way to win. The loser finds a way to lose.” |
