ANN ARBOR, Mich. – Nebraska coach Scott Frost believes the Cornhuskers have bottomed out.
Frost told his players in Michigan's locker room that things can not be worse and their 56-10 loss to Michigan's 19th could be a "watershed" for the program.
The loss brought the Cornhuskers down to 0-3, the worst start in school football since 1945. The 39-0 hole at the end of the second quarter was the biggest half-time deficit at team had to face. History of the war
"I told them honestly that it was going to be the bottom here," said Frost. "I do not know how many times I've been in a match like that, but we've been beaten at every stage, we're really going to find out who loves football and who likes it."
Frost's return to his homeland and the football program where he has already won a share of a national title as a player have been among the most famous college football coaches. He said upon arrival that there was a long list of problems to be sorted out before Nebraska re-entered the championships.
He said his team had been badly executed against Michigan and that the physique had been "whipped". He was happy, however, that the players competed throughout the unbalanced match. He thinks it's inevitable that some members of the team will stop believing or working to get better, but that losing them will make the team stronger in the long run.
"The only ones to lose are the ones we've never really had," Frost said. "… The guys we win and win the championships will never do."
Frost said he did not think the problems were bigger or more insurmountable than when he arrived. He said that he still believes that success will come.
"We're not ready to beat a team like this, but the key word for me is" still, "said Frost." I know where you're going. This is certainly not as fast as I would like, but I'm a little excited because it's not going to be worse than that. It's only here. "
Nebraska upper class members who spoke to reporters after the match shared their coach's thoughts on the season and the future in Nebraska. They said it was the responsibility of leaders on the ground to make sure their year takes a positive turn.
"We have a staff of coaches and players who will not allow it, that's all," Foster said. "Look me in the eye, and hope you can see that I will not let it get worse than that."
