In the second half, the Sooners had five possessions in Husker territory, and came away with zero points.

Pellini had an offensive game plan that was straight out of the Pat Jones playbook. Run the ball and hope you don't fumble. The Husker scoring drives were 1 and 33 yards. And they won handily.

This was the worst offensive performance since the season opener against TCU in 2005. Or the 2005 Texas game.
