[Husker] Here's one more disturbing thought

[BRADALAN at aol.com]

Nebraska will be playing K-state next Saturday for LAST PLACE in the  North.  
K State is the only team currently in contention for the cellar who  doesn't 
already have the head-to-head win over the Huskers.  If K-St wins  they would 
have that and both teams would be 5-5 and 2-5 in conference.
 
It's quite possible that Pederson DID in fact keep the Huskers from  
gravitating towards mediocrity....
 
...by sending them right on through it.
 
 
I don't even know what to make of the program at this point.  I see  some of 
the experience issues with execution on the offense, but the  D?   The 
Blackshirts have shown flashes of greatness at times  this year, and I just don't see 
real weaknesses anywhere in the lineup.   Even the secondary is pretty 
decent, from an athlete/talent standpoint.  It  baffles me how OU, Mizzou, and KU 
can struggle against other, supposedly less  talented defenses, and then all 
seem to have the answer to the Huskers.   It's almost like everybody got copies 
of Cosgrove's defensive plans before  conference play started.
 
Are the defensive players just having lots of mental lapses or is the DC  
getting badly outcoached?  Can someone more knowlegeable shed some  light?
