In the Scott Frost era of Husker football, drawing first blood is a key part of the victory formula. Score first, score fast, score often. But with the offense's vibe off, the formula isn't working properly.
No. 5 Nebraska made quick work of Maryland as it earned a 25-19, 25-16, 25-13 sweep Saturday night.
“We got one there,” Scott Frost said of Robinson after the Illinois game. “We got a real guy there. Not just from a talent perspective, but from a heart perspective. (Wan'Dale Robinson) wanted that ball, he wanted to take over that game. In a lot of ways, he did. I’m glad he’s wearing scarlet and cream.”
“(Darrion Daniels) did a great job of coming in and not just doing things right himself but holding others to a standard he expected,” Scott Frost said. Daniels is the midseason defensive MVP.
“When they do things we train and you see it, that’s the best thing as a coach,” Cook said. “Win or lose, if they are doing the thing we train them to do it’s very rewarding as a coach.”
