The Huskers stormed out to a 17-0 halftime lead in “West Evanston” as Nebraska fans seemed to have purchased three out of four seats outside the Colorado student sections.

Adrian Martinez was a perfect nine-for-nine passing, while the Blackshirts had held the Buffaloes to ZERO yards rushing on 14 carries and just 84 total yards.
Then it was the worst of times.
