Week 12 Husker Report Card: Colorado

After yesterday, do I still need to do this?  Well...just to be consistent...

Offensive Line:  B  Only one sack when the Huskers called 60+ passes?
Running Back:  A-  Marlon Lucky, over 180 yards of all-purpose yards.  Nice output.  Would have liked to have seen some more of Quentin Castille, not to mention ANY sign of Roy Helu.
Quarterback:  B-  After the first half, this would have been an A, but the second half drops this grade.  I have to wonder how banged up Joe Ganz was; he was very erratic in the second half.
Wide Receiver:  A  Some nice catches by everybody on a cold day.
Defensive Line:  F  The milk carton boys turned up MIA again.
Linebackers:  F  Well, I saw them chasing some guys at least.
Secondary:  F  Consistently toasted all day.
Coaching:  No Grade  Not really necessary to grade them anymore, don't you think?
Overall:  D-  Could have won this one, but literally threw it away in the second half.

Elsewhere in college football:

Missouri:  A+ Number one in the country?  In other news, AJ the Huskerh8er warns that if you are going to Hell this week, take your parka along.
Kansas:  B Made a game of it late, and still in position for a BCS game.
LSU:  D Was Bo Pelini already thinking about dinner at Lo Sole Mio in Omaha?
Buffalo:  B-  Five wins for the Bulls?  Turner Gill has some believers.
West Virginia:  A+ No, we haven't forgotten about you...
