Coach Talk

Nebraska Corn Bores
Well Nebraska Corn Bores, the good news is that we won this matchup by more than 71 points. The better news is that we've proven we're even stronger than this... as a matter of fact, our team's scoring average through Week 5 stood at 375.94. So yes, we're happy to have gotten this victory, but let's also get back up to where we know we can be!

Look, we've been in this business long enough to know that sometimes free points just seem to miraculously appear out of nowhere. Then in some cases, like this week, they don't! Well, hmmm, okay; maybe asking for an extra 72 points is a bit overzealous. Keep pushing forward, Utah Surfer Dudes!
