I was wrong

I'm concerned not one of our running backs has the vision to run to space. I understand blocking is supposed to open a hole, but to have zero cut backs against a gap-filling Rutgers D is a little odd.
This has been a concern from day 1. 4 average backs no Ameer Abdullahs, Rex Burkheads, and certainly no Lawrence Phillips, Mike Roziers, or Ahman Greens amongst others.

Is Raiola sick?

He's an 18 year old kid. Who knows what happened this week but if he's not sick, something got in his head. Or maybe he just didn't have it today. Part of his learning process is figuring out how to get locked in when he is off. And I'm sure he will.
Body language was horrible. I noticed after a missed throw or 2 the receivers would look back and have that WTF expression. Off day, it happens. He’ll grow from it, get his mojo back during the off week.

I was wrong

I expected a win, they are soft against the run. I thought we should run the ball on them. Turns out we aren't a very good running team. Huskers have to get better in the run game in the 2nd half of the season.
