[Husker] Blame and blitz

As soon as I post that Cosgrove is the one person who never shoulders any
responsibility on himself I see him quoted as saying the blackshirt woes
begin with him. Okay, Coach, that's a start.

I wasn't able to see the game, on TV or in person, but I surmised from the
internet radio broadcast combined with OWH and Lincoln Journal articles that
one of the few times the Huskers blitzed was the interception play.
Apparently, they scrapped the blitz packages, early on, when they saw all
the rollouts from Davis. Until late in the game, that is, when someone must
have figured out blitzing couldn't possibly make things worse. SO they
blitzed, and won the game. Hmmmm. Blitzes, anyone.
