## Resource

We’re two weeks into the college football season, and the Big Ten is wobbling. Oregon lost in Week 2. Ohio State lost in Week 2. Michigan lost in Week 1. Check that, the Wolverines are 2-0. But numerous Big Ten teams — on and off Nebraska’s schedule — have struggled out of the gate. What does it mean for the league? And what does it mean for Matt Rhule’s team, which entered this year facing the narrative that its schedule rated as one of the toughest nationally. Does it still? The Huskers, while playing well on offense and defense, have experienced special teams issues here in September. Notably, they’ve committed too many penalties. Saturday night against Bowling Green, it was three flags for holding on punt returns. Rhule has an explanation. No matter if he’s just covering for his assistants, it needs to get cleaned up before Big Ten play opens. Finally, we’re looking ahead at North Dakota. Are the Fightin’ Hawks poised to give Nebraska trouble this week at Memorial Stadium?
