Osborne lauds yardage in loss but blames turnovers
Nebraska coach Tom Osborne, addressing the Extra Point Club, cited 470 yards gained in the 10-19 defeat to Washington State as evidence the team moved the ball well but failed to score. He blamed four critical turnovers that he said could have produced 28 points and noted Washington State’s strong kicking game. Osborne looked ahead to Alabama, describing Bear Bryant’s Tide as a strong, versatile opponent with a balanced offense and a prominent ground game. The Nebraska Alabama game was set for a regional TV telecast with a 12:50 p.m. kickoff at Memorial Stadium.
