     I think Bill Callahan and his staff deserve kudos for this one.  To 
play Texas to two points in a game NU arguably should have won is 
tremendous.  I could have easily seen a Texas win before the game by 17-24 
points or possibly more.  NU has come a long ways in three years.  Just so 
now they don't shoot themselves in the foot along the rest of the way.  No 
coach does everything everyone will agree with.  Not even TO did that.  But, 
it sure seems Callahan is going in the right direction.
