Morgan continues to make his mark as NU receiving great
Nebraska wide receiver Stanley Morgan Jr runs into the end zone for a touchdown against Illinois on Saturday at Memorial Stadium.When you look at some of the stats from Stanley Morgan’s performance against Illinois on Saturday, it is more than a little impressive.
Three receptions for 70 yards and two touchdowns — 37 and 32 yards on the scoring plays. Pretty good game right there.
Funny thing, though. Those were just the first-quarter numbers for Morgan, who finished with eight catches for 131 yards in NU’s 54-35 victory.
He also hogged a bunch of the post-game highlight notes from the Husker communications folks, and rightfully so. Not his fault. OK, maybe it is.
