    Season's Over

    The Cornhuskers got beaten by Auburn in their bowl game.... Ho HUM!

    It was a season that held hopes but failed to achieve them.

    Winning the North Division of the big 12 meant beating out the poor teams who play there.

    A medicore season at best.......

    Poor defensive backfield play coupled with a no offense in the second half all year long made for some very long afternoons.

    Did the coaches play calling hold the team back? I don't know....

    All that said, there were some exciting games and plays ... enough to keep us Old Husker Fans coming back for more..
