I noticed the same thing. As soon as I heard that Moore was injured, I knew that Raiola would be coming in during a high pressure game. He performed admirably. :clap:
Initially I thought Nebraska would now face Raiola in several weeks but all the reports on Moore have come back good. Sounds like he just has a concussion and is in concussion protocol, so it very well could be Moore back to face Nebraska.

It appears that Raiola transferring from NU worked out well for both parties.

So, we moved up from 42 to 38 i think. May not be ranked even after Maryland. Though, youd think they give us a token #25 ranking for the Indiana Game.

On Moore, I was surprised Kyler Murray had a similar injury, and he was back after one week. Whether thats good or bad for us? Dunno.

Maryland I'm not worried about. Indiana on the other hand, that's one to be worried about. They're the defending national champions after all. And they're very good under Curt Cignetti.

This week in the AP poll, here is where the Huskers stand. Last week, one voter had them at #24 with two points. That had them at the equivalent of 42

This week, the Huskers are at #33 in the AP

Votes from 14 voters
#20 (1)
#21 (1)
#22 (1)
#23 (3)
#24 (4)
#25 (4)


Interesting fact: the only voter this year on the AP Polls who is local or has Husker ties is Andy Kendeigh. He does not show a vote for the Huskers yet.

Until Nebraska beats a Top 25 team, I can't see any reason to vote for them.

That's my thought as well.
