Report card from Nebraska's ugly 31-13 win over Michigan State
Nebraska took another step in the right direction this past weekend. However, despite the 31-13 win for the Huskers, it wasn’t pretty.
Nebraska's loss to Michigan State was a mixed bag, with the team improving to 4-0 for the first time since 2016. Quarterback Anthony Colandrea had a solid game, flashing both his ability to throw for big gains and his knack for making key runs. However, he still had his struggles, including a fumble and a few off-target throws. The running backs put up a fight against Michigan State's defense, with Mekhi Nelson leading the charge and Isaiah Mozee and Vincent Genatone also stepping up.
The wide receivers had their moments, with Kwazi Gilmer and Luke Lindenmeyer making crucial catches, but they also had their mistakes. The offensive line faced a tough challenge, winning half of their battles but stalling on critical plays. The defensive line made their presence known, with Nebraska earning six sacks and 10 tackles for loss.
Overall, it was a complicated game for Nebraska, with plenty of positives to build upon and areas to improve before facing tougher competition.
