Joseph took over as interim HC after the Huskers suffered a brutal defeat to Georgia Southern in Week 3. Since taking over, Joseph and the Huskers have a 2-3 record.
The Huskers suffered a blowout loss at the hands of Oklahoma but quickly rebounded after the bye week to defeat Indiana and Rutgers consecutively. Nebraska then lost a close game to a tough Purdue team and hung tight with 14th-ranked Illinois for a while before ultimately falling.
The Huskers have Minnesota, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Iowa remaining on their schedule. At 3-5, the Huskers will need to win 3 of those 4 to become bowl-eligible.
