Steven M. Sipple: Fox analyst Smith says Husker defense looks like 'completely different unit'
Nebraska linebackers Garrett Nelson (left) and Will Honas (3) sack Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields during the third quarter Oct. 24 at Ohio Stadium in Columbus, Ohio.Robert Smith has witnessed Scott Frost's program at a low point. A severe low point.
Smith, a Fox Sports college football analyst, was part of the crew for the Nebraska-Minnesota game last October in Minneapolis. The Gophers pushed around the Huskers that night, averaging 6.6 yards on 49 rushes in a 34-7 thumping.
A few days before the game, Smith met with Frost, the Nebraska head coach, and Husker defensive coordinator Erik Chinander.
