I had a chance to visit Sunday morning with former Husker assistant and current Director of Player Development, Ron Brown, about what he thought was the feeling of the team after Saturday's 42-38 nail-biter win over the Fighting Illini. "Whew!" was his response. That pretty much sums up the feelings of most Husker fans, too. What is important to remember…

It may be a bit much to call it the “Big D Family Reunion,” but the Davis brothers and the Daniels brothers stood shoulder to shoulder to accomplish a rarity for a Husker defense these days — keeping the opponent out of the end zone all game long.

Brutal loss in Boulder this weekend. Nebraska completely outplayed the Buffs in the first half, outgaining them 266 yards to 84. The 17-0 score at half didn't really reflect how much the Huskers dominated. And that came back to hurt them.
