Commentary

Sherman

The Huskers can brace for a dose of panic from the fan base as the potential for discord within the locker room grows.

Vogel

They say you make your own luck and, fact is, in three of those four losses ... Nebraska’s defense was asked to seal the win. It didn’t.

Hail Varsity
Callahan

This defense is not deep enough to hold up without any support from the offense.

HuskerOnline
Barfknecht

Confidence. Belief. Discipline. Veteran leadership. One team had all those Saturday, and the other did not.

Omaha World-Herald
Sipple

In this cruelest of seasons, you wonder how much worse it can get for Nebraska.

Lincoln Journal Star
Stryker

It’s hard to make Stave look like a good passer, but the Husker defense managed to do it.

Shatel

Are the football gods angry with Nebraska? Is one of them a Bo Pelini fan?

Omaha World-Herald
Chatelain

Making plays at critical moments requires confidence, trust and belief. Nebraska has none of those qualities right now.

Omaha World-Herald
York

The maddening finish keeps Nebraska in a waiting-to-exhale mode.
