'Huskers look to recover from loss to Longhorns
By Michael Rigg sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
Game-week preparations for tomorrow's Kansas-Nebraska matchup have exposed the defining differences between the teams' situations.
Nebraska's 24-20 defeat against Texas last Saturday was only its 16th defeat this decade, and its first this season. Nebraska coach Frank Solich said Saturday's defeat made his team focus on the Jayhawks.
"I think our players have accepted the challenge," Solich said. "They were down. They were stung pretty good by the loss, but they've focused on getting back on track."
Getting the Cornhuskers back on track means getting back to winning. It's been nine years since Nebraska lost back-to-back games and 30 since the Cornhuskers have lost to Kansas.
Despite having history on Nebraska's side, Solich said the approach for tomorrow's game was the same as always.
"We'll just go back to the way we approach every ball game," Solich said. "We know that Kansas is a big game. If we don't get it done, it will be a Titanic of a game."
Getting it done against the Jayhawks in the past hasn't been a problem for the Cornhuskers. The two teams have played 105 times with Nebraska winning 81 of those games. Even worse, Kansas has been outscored 180-10 in the past four years.
Coach Terry Allen has seen his team fall to Nebraska 35-0 and 41-1 in two seasons.
A main reason for this dominance has been Nebraska's defense, which ranks third in the nation in total defense. The Cornhuskers allow only 237 yards per game.
"Other teams are going to have to realize that every year Nebraska is going to come and play hard and physical football," said Nebraska defensive back Mike Brown. "Just expect us to give 100 percent and play physical football."
Playing physical defense is exactly what the Cornhuskers have been doing, Solich said.
"Our defense has been so dominant in previous games," Solich said. "You always have confidence in that. But every game is a new game, and you have to step on the field and prove yourselves."
While Nebraska's defense has been overpowering this season, its offense has been equally efficient. The Cornhuskers feature standout junior running backs Dan Alexander and Correll Buckhalter, who team with quarterback Eric Crouch to form one of the nation's top rushing attacks.
Allen is among Crouch's admirers.
"Eric Crouch is really good." Allen said. "He's only a sophomore, so in two years, he'll be absolutely unbelievable."
