Bill Moos felt deflated Saturday.
Deflated and defeated.
Let's be clear on something, though. The Nebraska athletic director wasn't whining. That wasn't his tone. OK, maybe a tad. But he sounded more like a prize fighter who trained hard for a fight and did his best, but came up short.
Moos was 0-for-3 as it pertained to what he sought from the Big Ten Conference for Nebraska's 2020 football schedule. To wit:
1. He recommended that, for this (pandemic) season only, the Big Ten's divisional champions would be decided by using division games only. Strike one.
