I’m sure you have opinions. We have a lot to talk about after Nebraska is STILL winless against USC following Saturday’s 28-20 final.

This week on Corn Nation’s Overreaction, Hoss and Greg are going to talk about running backs Emmett Johnson and Dante Dowdell and how the run game was milk-cartoned late in the game.

The guys also discuss the emergence of Nate Boerkircher, and how Heinrich Haarberg could be a star in this offense.

What was the Dana Holgorsen Effect? How did the offense look overall, and where are areas of improvement?

The other side of the ball did not look good. After the Ceyair Wright pick-six, the Huskers struggled with consistency and Tony White could not counter the Lincoln Riley offense.

I’ll be honest - after the game I was still pretty optimistic, and somehow we opened up as a 1.5-point favorite against Wisconsin. Where’s our sixth win? Is it this coming Saturday against the Badgers? It is against the Hawkeyes on Black Friday? What does the immediate future of Husker football look like?
