What Scott Frost said following another heartbreaking Nebraska loss
Published:
It was another heartbreaker for Nebraska against Ohio State.
The Cornhuskers were in it until the end against the Buckeyes, but gave up a field goal with just a couple of minutes left and ultimately lost, 26-17.
Nebraska is now not eligible to play in a bowl game this year after it dropped to 3-7 on the season. Quarterback Adrian Martinez finished with 248 yards passing with 1 touchdown pass and 1 interception.
Here’s what head coach Scott Frost said to the media after another close loss.
Frost: “There’s too many things happening for us to not get over the hump.”

Adrian Martinez has a broken jaw and high ankle sprain, Scott Frost discloses. He says he’ll let Martinez talk about why he played with the jaw.

Frost says Domann was playing through an injury today.
You wouldn't have known it with the game he had.

Frost says Martinez had three decisions to make with the broken jaw: One would have ended his season, one would have put him out a while and one kept him playing. He chose to keep playing.

Scott Frost says he “bleeds” for Nebraska. Lists all the places he’s lived in the state. He says NU has to play with that much spirit in every game. “That’s the passion Nebraska fans want to see.” #huskers

Frost said “that’s the right football decision,” about kicking the field goal down six with 10 minutes left. Obviously, he said, you second-guess when it doesn’t go your way.

“You’re crazy if you don’t think I’m playing the guy that gives us the best chance to win.”
