What Scott Frost said following Nebraska’s humiliating loss to Troy
By Paul Harvey

Things went from bad to worse for the Cornhuskers Saturday.
Nebraska opened the season with a loss to Colorado in the closing minutes of the game last weekend. Making matters worse, QB sensation Adrian Martinez was lost to injury in the fourth quarter.
Martinez was unable to play against Troy, and his absence was noticeable time and time again. Andrew Bunch and the Nebraska offense struggled mightily against the Trojans while losing 24-19.
It is an especially dark day for the Huskers, but head coach Scott Frost will try to get the team to move forward from the loss. Here is what Frost had to say following the embarrassing defeat:
“I think we are better than the results say we are, but that doesn’t matter.” -Scott Frost #huskers #gbr #nebraska

"I told team, you fight back and work even harder, or you give up. I also told them if anybody doesn't want to stay on board and ride with us, get off, because I know where this is going," Frost said.

Frost says he didn’t consider putting Adrian in today. #huskers

Frost: "Adrian wasn't really good to go today." Said long-term health was in mind.

"It doesn't hurt anybody worse than the coaches and those guys in the locker room. We all have a lot of work to do," Frost said. #Huskers

"We've got a tough game next week. It might get worse before it gets better. It's always darkest before the dawn, and I know where this is going, and I want every guy in the locker room on board," Frost said. #Huskers

Frost said NU wanted to “ugly it up” on offense and lean on run game and defense. Fell in a hole early. #huskers
