We actually beat ourselves. Too many turnovers, mistakes, penalities and gave up too many third and long situations. Good teams don't do this.

I thought before the game there was a good chance Nebraska would lose. However it's the way the game slipped away at the end that made me disappointed.

I live in Colorado, CU fans are acting like they just won the national championship. I have to deal with this for an entire year. We dominated the game and somehow still lost.

This was the toughest loss since NU lost to Texas in the Big 12 Championship. Also because it was to CU. Their classless fans will rant about it until next September. That was a gift to CU.

It just seems to sting more when you know you beat yourself! We found numerous ways to lose this game. Hard to stomach. Being CU makes it that much worse.

We're playing with Riley's players (except for AM and Bell). I was excited about 7 sacks, a QB that can run AND pass! Imagine what happens when Frosty has his recruits and a 2 years under his belt!

They played a tough opponent and outplayed them in most categories. This Husker team looked ferocious and strong through all 4 quarters, which is a welcome change. Plus, some of those calls...

Huskers win the game if only one turnover was not lost and I hate to say it but the officials were horrible as usual.

As a coach myself all you can do is look for constant improvement and the wins will take care of themselves. We already have half the sacks we had last year....

If last years team fell behind 14-0 in the 1st Q, they would have buckled and folded and lost by a wide margin. This team played like they expected to win by 50. Had this been game 2, they'd have won.

We're light-years ahead of where we were last year. 10-1 says if that ass-hat #44 didn't put that extra twist on Martinez' ankle, we win this game! Even with the 1st game jitter silliness...

So many encouraging things to take away. Some mistakes against a decent team in the very first game of the season, but the way we ran the ball, the way we got pressure on the qb, most of qb play, etc

Huskers are mostly a young team with no previous game played. NU was the better team Saturday, our mistakes caused the loss, many of the mistakes may have been solved had Akron been played.

It's disappointing but the team made first game mistakes that can be corrected. NU was probably a better team but CU was a more experienced team.

If he is committed yes, but these 'elites' are a problem for decent society. They sell us down the river every time it seems. Trev owed us more explanation than we got. May A&M lose every game.

Maybe he can pull the knife out of our backs that Trev stuck in? He has forever ruined his Nebraska legacy by bailing on us! He was looking to move up probably before he took the AD job. So yes I'm excited.

The people of Nebraska had great confidence in Trev Alberts. It is a huge step backwards when both Ted carter and Trev decided it wasn't worth it to stay and work within the system. Obviously the Board of Regents lack of leadership was the problem.
