[Husker] OT win

[Jay Saunders]

I haven't heard, but I don't think it was a mistake on Nebraska's part to play 
against the wind; meaning I think it was planned. It took away Iowa State's dual 
threat (or it should have) and Alex is a much better kicker - on either side of 
the field.

I was thinking the same thing before OT started.  I hoped we would lose the 
toss.  But then they put up a graphic that said the winner of the toss could 
choose either "offense, defense, or end of field."  I didn't know that.  They 
chose the standard answer "defense".  But since IS clearly was a better team 
with the wind, wouldn't it have been better to have chosen "end of field" this 
time?
