With network spotlight returning to Lincoln, Mickey Joseph starts his nine-game audition.

The 100 Husker fans I talked with the morning of the Ohio State game in Lincoln felt good about Nebraska’s chances to flourish under Frost’s leadership. Even though Frost and the Huskers frittered away an almost-certain victory in Boulder, Colorado, in Week 2 of the 2019 season that would have given them a tremendous amount of momentum, the arrival of ESPN’s College GameDay three weeks later gave NU a chance to redeem itself. The beginning of the 2019 season was perhaps the high point of Scott Frost optimism in Husker Nation.

Oklahoma vs. Nebraska score, takeaways: No. 6 Sooners dominate ... (CBSSports.com)

The Huskers failed to impress in the first game of the post-Scott Frost era on Saturday.

Kanak led the Sooners with 10 tackles in less than half a game, and he caused major issues for Nebraska's protections. The Sooners posted 355 yards on 8.1 yards per play and held the Cornhuskers to 3.4 yards per play. Oklahoma played well in its first two games against UTEP and Kent State, but the first half against Nebraska was perfect football. The opening scripted drive spread the ball around, but after a few quarterback hits, the body language quickly fell. The 49 points mark the most scored by the Sooners against the Cornhuskers in the 88 meetings between these two programs. However, a porous offensive line allowed the Sooners to get four sacks off Thompson and produced just 2.8 yards per carry for starting running back Anthony Grant.

Let’s just go enjoy the chaos elsewhere in college football and the Big Ten in particular. On a third down play, the Sooners got flagged for pass interference and give the Husker offense a bit of life. The Sooners are near midfield. First and goal for the Sooners. The Sooners started carving up the Blackshirts to get across midfield. The big tight end caught a pass for a short gain. Ajay Allen enters the game and busts off a 10 yard run. Sooner ball at the 12. A false start slowed the momentum, but only temporarily. Alante Brown and Trey Palmer moved the Huskers past midfield in short order. The defense played well (except for one big run by the Sooners), and notched a sack from Luke Reimer to get off the field quickly. Greg Sharpe mentioned in the pregame show that the Husker offense is gaining an average of 492 yards/game.
