Commentary:
Stryker: Am I being too picky about a defense that has yet to allow an opponent to score in double figures? I don’t think so.
McKewon: Lee dazzled Husker fans with every tool in his box.
McKeever: Essentially, Watson is playing more pieces in his chess game, because his unit can see two and three moves down the road.
Sipple: Just how good is this Nebraska team? Beamerball should provide some definitive answers.
Shatel: There isn’t going to be any quarterback controversy.
Neeley: Nebraska fans will be biting their nails wondering just what this team can do when the heat is turned up.
Douglass: The tuneups are in the books. Now, it’s time for Nos. 18- and 22-ranked Nebraska to see what it really has.
