A knock-your-socks-off Adrian Martinez stat

Remember when Mario Verduzco referred to Adrian Martinez’s first-drive interception against Michigan as an "act of God,” play?

Martinez had JD Spielman for a touchdown over the middle, but the ball got tipped and picked just before it hit the ground. It became nothing more than a footnote on an afternoon of utter domination from the Wolverines.

Consider this: Nebraska has started eight of its 10 games with the ball first. The Huskers won the toss against Troy but deferred with Andrew Bunch starting and watched Wisconsin win the toss and take the ball first in Madison.
