The Cornhuskers fumbled four times in their 22-point loss to Colorado. None of the fumbles were forced.
BOULDER — When Colorado was finally done having its way with the Cornhuskers for three and a half hours, Matt Rhule reasoned: What’s a few more minutes?
“They’re obviously a super-high-tempo operation, and we knew that coming into it,” quarterback Heinrich Haarberg said. “But they did a good job executing.” Colorado Buffaloes quarterback Shedeur Sanders , left, avoided bing sacked during the first half at Folsom Field on September 9, 2023 in Boulder, Colorado. Head Coach Deion Sanders led the Colorado Buffaloes in a matchup against their long-time rivals, the Nebraska Cornhuskers, during Coach Prime’s highly anticipated home debut.
Two of the four fumbles were dropped snaps by quarterback Jeff Sims. One was a botched handoff. The other was a snap that never reached Sims, because the ball intersected with a fullback in motion before it could reach the QB’s hands. The Huskers were completely out of sync in timing and communication.
