Amid a myriad of officiating blunders in Nebraska’s week nine football game against Ohio State, one in particular has struck the ire of the Husker program and has drawn a statement from the Big Ten.

It was deja vu in the Devaney. The menu might not have read No. 1 vs. No. 2, but in every way possible, the Friday night marquee matchup between No. 2 Nebraska and No. 10 Purdue lived up to every expectation that could have been had, and then some. Somehow, it seems that whenever the Huskers and Boilermakers meet up, half of the fans in attendance leave with less hair and fingernails than when they entered the arena.
