Big Ten Football: Week 10 Power Rankings
5. Nebraska
Week 10 result – 62-3 loss to Ohio State
Well, Nebraska was a bust. The Cornhuskers looked like they just suffered a tough loss to Wisconsin. To Ohio State, they looked like they never belonged in the top 10.
This team is a bigger disappointment than Michigan State. All season long they seemed like the underdog of 2016, the breakout team of the year. Apparently, that was all a fluke.
Maybe Tommy Armstrong Jr.’s injury played a role in the Ohio State blowout, but losing by 59 isn’t because of one player. This team showed their true colors, and it wasn’t pretty. For a team who had every chance in the world, Nebraska blew a great opportunity.
