Who in the league---outside of Nebraska fans---could have envisioned at this point in the season that Coach Reid would have to reassure fans during his weekly presser that:
My wife and I ran into Emmett at Eppley a few weeks ago. Very nice and engaging young man. We really appreciated that he talked to everyone who recognized him and he signed autographs for everyone who asked.Man I wish he was still here. I honestly think we might be undefeated if he were here. Our offense would be 10 times better with him.
