For reasons I’m still not sure I totally understand, Nebraska gave our defense fits all game long. We gave up 28 points to them!
After a string of pulverizing games for our defense, we got cut wide open more than once.

He’s 17-years-old, and looks like he belongs in the NFL. It’s truly insane how impressive he is on the field. He more or less carried the team to a win Saturday, and he’s not even old enough to vote.
Braelon Allen keeps it 💯
