## Resource

Nebraska pulled off a gritty 49-21 win over Ohio, but it wasn’t pretty—nine penalties, blown coverage, dropped passes, and a defense that needs to step up. Still, no turnovers was huge, and freshman Jamal Rule shined alongside Mekhi Nelson. The offensive line looked strong, especially in short-yardage, while the defense is still learning its new system. We also revisited that wild Michigan game with the controversial Hail Mary clock stoppage—and looked ahead to Bowling Green, coached by Eddie George, as we dive into how NIL and player compensation are reshaping college football’s future.
