[Husker] Please Make It Stop

Well you have to try to run the ball to have a running game. We tried 0 running attempts the whole second qt. Every play we ran was a pass. That is just dumb.

It seems clear to me that if Nebraska had had the faintest semblance 
of a running attack after the first quarter, Ganz would not have been 
intercepted so often.

Some Listers may have noticed that usually when NU falls behind by a 
couple of scores, its running attack evaporates, making the Huskers 
one-dimensional  (the patented Charlie McBride recipe for smashing 
the other team). The KU defense merely had to lay back in the nickle 
or dime - - and feast.

And that's not even mentioning the occasionally good but usually 
shoddy protection afforded Ganz. With really good protection, it 
would have been another story, too.

The one positive to emerge from yesterday is that Ganz will emerge 
next Spring - - as should have been the case before now.
