An old friend has returned.
A comfortable win against a team in which a comfortable win is expected.
It feels like it has been far too long since this friend has visited. There are numerous reasons why, but Nebraska football fans are glad the friend is back. At least for now.
The score indicates that it was a dominant game by Nebraska over Northern Illinois. However, I believe the biggest moment in the game, perhaps the season, was the drive to end the first half. It appeared to my untrained eye that Scott Frost finally took the training wheels off of the offense for the first time this season.
