That really was a great loss for the Huskers on Saturday. It was a great loss because a game like that gave hope to the entire Husker Nation. The offense is showing signs of coming around and the defense was great in the second half. Holding Tech to field goals in the third quarter kept the Huskers in the game.

Saturday's 27-20 win over Iowa State in overtime was huge for the entire Husker nation. The players certainly needed it. The coaches too. It was also big for the fans. Now there is some hope for Bill Callahan's West Coast offense, an offense that had struggled through the first three games. The defense had been pretty good through the first three games, but the offense was horrid. Now comes the real test. Nebraska will have to find a way to score 30 of the Huskers are going to beat the Red Raiders next week.
