Takeaways from Michigan’s dominant win over Nebraska

Michigan put on a clinic Saturday, bombing Nebraska 56-10 in Scott Frost’s first Big Ten game as a head coach. The win moves the Wolverines to 3-1 on the season and drops Nebraska to 0-3.

Here are the biggest takeaways from the game.

Nebraska Is Very Bad

There no way to sugarcoat it, Nebraska is a terrible football team.

Michigan bullied the Cornhuskers in every phase of the game for the entire 60 minutes. U-M nearly scored as many points (56) as Nebraska had total yards (82), held Nebraska to just 21 yards rushing, forced Nebraska’s starting quarterback, Adrian Martinez, to the bench at halftime because of how often he was getting hit by Michigan’s defensive front (only for the backup, Andrew Bunch, to get injured on his first play, he would later return), forced two Nebraska turnovers, scored a touchdown on special teams and dominated Nebraska in the trenches.
