The Nebraska Cornhuskers have been dealt quite the hand this season with the number of injuries they have had on the team, most notably to starting quarterback Dylan Raiola. This was meant to be the season where everything clicked under head coach Matt Rhule for the Cornhuskers, and it just feels like another season of just getting by.
There has been one bright spot, though, and that is what Nebraska saw from backup quarterback TJ Lateef in his first game as a starter. Lateef luckily had a bye week to get ready for his first game as a starter against UCLA, and it seemed to work out in his favor.
