Tale o f the T u r n o v e r

Not much went right for the Irish in Saturday

night’s contest against Nebraska. They couldn’t

run the ball and they couldn’t pass the ball. The

Irish committed four key first-half turnovers

that turned the game in Nebraska’s favor. The

Buskers had a clear field position edge in the

first half — an edge they took advantage of.

Although the Irish outscored the Buskers 7-0 in

the second half, it was too little, too late.

DUFFY-MARIE ARNOULT/The Observer Nebraska linebackers swarm a Notre Dame running back during first quarter action on Saturday night’s game. Notre Dame only managed to rush for 43 yards against Nebraska’s defense.

PETER RICHARDSON/The Observer During the first quarter, the Irish forced Eric Crouch to fumble when he was running the option. Above left, Anthony Weaver (left) makes contact with Crouch as Rocky Boiman covers the pitch man. Above right, Crouch loses the ball.
