Nebraska ST's pros: were able to pin ASU deep on punts,
99 yard TD on kickoff return

Nebraska ST's cons: gave up long punt return for TD
almost lost onside kick
lost onside kick at crucial point

Each team scored a TD on ST's. Pinning them deep on punts helped the defense. The almost lost onside kick was nerve racking and the lost onside kick caused a variety of unpleasant involuntary bodily functions and mental duress that will need medication (prescribed or street) to help process.

I'd give ASU the advantage as the disturbing psychological effect of their ST success was very effective in instilling fear, possibly for the next few games.

I'd be interested in knowing how the staff would rate ST's and who's in charge of handling each aspect.
