On September 17, the Nebraska Cornhuskers dropped to 1-3 following a 14-49 blowout loss to the Oklahoma Sooners.
The Cornhuskers struggled on both sides of the ball. On offense, they recorded 164 total passing yards and averaged a mere 3.6 yards per rush attempt. Meanwhile, Nebraska’s defense looked outmatched against Oklahoma’s offense. At halftime, the Sooners had already jumped out to a 35-7 lead.
The Cornhuskers still have eight games remaining on their schedule, but they will face some tough opponents including Michigan, Wisconsin, Purdue, Iowa, and Minnesota.
Luckily, interim head coach Mickey Joseph will have some extra time to work with the team. Their next game is not until October 1, when they will face Indiana.
Here are two key stats from Saturday’s loss.
