The good news for Nebraska: Taylor Martinez is back in the game.
Nebraska Vs. Texas A&M: Taylor Martinez Returns, Offensive Competency Still At Large
The freshman sensation, after leaving and returning to the field in the first half, has now returned to action in the second.
The bad news: it’s helping, but only sort of. Martinez helped the Huskers convert a fourth down with a slippery run, and Roy Helu Jr. broke free for a 31-yard gain moments after that play.
But as the drive neared field goal range, Martinez lofted a pass too deep for a receiver, and Trent Hunter snagged it.
The bad news for viewers, of course, is that this is a game that is rewarding bruising play rather than creativity and boldness. It’s the sort of game that leads Brent Musburger to dramatically recite the names of offensive linemen.
If that’s your sort of game, I hope you’re enjoying it. If not, well, you’re probably not reading this now, are you?
