What did we learn? (The NW edition, sponsored by the MASH 4077)

Not turning the ball over and being +1 in TOs is how you win in the close games in the big leagues. Don't have to be great just don't beat yourself. Until Frost gets the horses this is a great recipe for success.

What's your point? UNLV, MSU, and Stanford all gained more yards and scored more points than we did against NW.

Wisconsin's defense scores more points than we did. Their offense only scored 10.

Wisconsin rushed for more yards vs Michigan than they had total yards vs NW 359-243. We outgained UW vs NW. Perspective. Huskers don't turn the ball over and they will be fine vs every team in the league not named Ohio State.

 
Really hope this is a sign of things to come. Huskers didn't do anything special today but didn't turn it over. Easy to win games when you don't give them away.

 
Ferentz wins these 13-10 type of games all the time. I admit I'll be a bit discouraged if Frost starts wearing a mock turtleneck and punting from the 35 but it works for Kirk.
