Another Disappointing One Score Nebraska Loss, Iowa Hate Week Is Upon Us!

Corn Nation: for Nebraska Cornhuskers fans

There was a lot of positive that happened in Husker sports over the weekend:

• The Volleyball team won the Big Ten
• The Soccer team qualified for the Elite Eight in the NCAA Tournament, beating UC Irvine 4-0
• Men’s basketball team is 5-0 for the first time since 2008
• The women’s basketball team is 3-1 with a loss to Creighton
• Wrestling is undefeated - won the Navy tournament over the weekend

Unfortunately, all that positive is drowned out by:

Nebraska losing another one-score game to Wisconsin in OT, 24-17. ARRGHHHH!

There is a lot to discuss regarding the loss to the Badgers. Once again, Nebraska takes on a team that looks like they’re on the ropes, and once again, Nebraska comes away with a heart-breaking (perhaps TV-smashing) loss.

Did Matt Rhule make the right call being conservative at the end of regulation?

Could the officials call holding, and when they did, why the hell did they? Could they have called tripping?

What about the play of Chubba Purdy!
