It’s getting harder to obey my own rule about not cobbing the Huskers, but 0-6 is the worst start for a Nebraska team since the Conquest of England by William the Bastard in 1066. That’s right folks, you can go back 952 years and not find a Nebraska team that started 0-6. This high quality statistical insight is why they pay me the big bucks folks. Don’t try this at home.
Rutgers: The nomination comes after what might be the longest onside kick in the history of college football. Or maybe not? Long Onside Kicks is not an official stat category.
Here's a play you almost NEVER see.

Rutgers doesn't field the @TerpsFootball kickoff on the fly, and it bounces right into the arms of @ccam42 for the recovery.

The BTN Crew for the Nebraska-Northwest game: Apparently the Huskers game got the interns this week.

Big Ten Refs: chew on this folks. I know we are playing sloppy, but when you’re #1 out of 1613 teams, something is going on.
@bigredcobcast re: penalties. Since 2006 there have been 1613 seasons played in FBS. 2018 Nebraska is currently #1 of 1613 at 96 ypg and #2 in penalties per game at 10.2 per game. 2018 Kent is #1 at 10.7 per game.

Bowling Green State University: BGSU has one more win that Nebraska this year, but they fired their coach and hired....

Carl freakin’ Pelini.
Funny. I never thought of BGSU as a party school.
Bowling Green fired Mike Jinks after a 1-6 start

Meet BGSU interim head coach CARL PELINI https://t.co/3RlKr6Z7oX
FWIW, Carl seems less than excited about the promotion. More than a day after the announcement his Twitter stills lists him as the DC at BGSU.
