A breakdown of what to take away from Nebraska's 49-10 win over Western Kentucky on Saturday night.

FIVE THINGS WE LEARNED
1
This quarterback debate is far from over. In fact, it's just starting.
2
Taylor Martinez is the fastest Nebraska QB since Eric Crouch. Maybe faster.
3
Cody Green is much more poised and prepared to lead than a year ago.
4
Lavonte David is the real deal. He'll help the Huskers handle the losses of Sean Fisher and Will Compton.
5
The Blackshirts need some work. Western Kentucky is not Idaho, which is not Washington, which is not Texas.

FIVE THINGS WE STILL DON'T KNOW
1
How much did Zac Lee's absence from spring practice impact his standing in the QB picture?
2
Can Martinez consistently make the right decision against a competent defense?
3
Will Roy Helu and Rex Burkhead get enough carries in an offense heavy on the QB run game?
4
Where was the pressure from Nebraska's Suh-less defensive line?
5
Will the NU defense, though speedy and athletic, prove vulnerable against a straight-ahead running attack?
