On Saturday, the Nebraska Cornhuskers lost their fifth consecutive game, as they were defeated by the Wisconsin Badgers 14-15. The Cornhuskers entered the fourth quarter with a 14-3 lead, but the Badgers were able to rally from behind.
However, there were some bright spots. Quarterback Casey Thompson returned to the lineup after a two-game absence. Defensively, the Cornhuskers were able to hold the Badgers to only 83 passing yards, which was their second-lowest mark of the season.
Individually, there were a few standout performances. Without further ado, here are Nebraska’s Offensive and Defensive Players of the Week from their loss to Wisconsin.
