Another close game, another close loss for the Nebraska Cornhuskers. The latest setback was a 24-17 overtime loss at Wisconsin. Nebraska has now lost three in a row. It is 5-6 on the season and needs a win against Iowa on Black Friday to become college football bowl-eligible.

On this edition of the Doc Talk Podcast presented by Betfred Sports, Travis Justice and former Husker offensive lineman Dr. Rob Zatechka dive deep into the loss to the Badgers.

Why didn’t the Huskers go for the win on the last drive of regulation? How did Chubba Purdy stack up as the starting quarterback, and is he the quarterback of the future for the Big Red?

Up next for Nebraska is a Black Friday game against Iowa. The Hawkeyes are 9-2 on the season and have wrapped up the Big Ten West Division Championship. One thing is for sure: You can expect a close game with the Hawkeyes. All but one of Iowa’s division wins have been one-score games. Nebraska will be looking for its second straight win over the Hawkeyes.

Nebraska Athletic Director Trev Alberts got a contract extension and a pay raise. The moves came after what appears to be a political hit job against Alberts and how he managed the finances at UNO.
