Season Ends With Loss To Nebraska
BOULDER - The Colorado Buffaloes ended a disappointing 2009
football season on Friday in much the same manner as they muddled through it - mostly competitive, but too often error-prone and self-destructive.
Final result: a 28-20 loss against archrival Nebraska that left the winning coach in a bittersweet mood - emphasis on the
bitter.
"I'm disappointed in our effort and how we played," Bo Pelini said. "I'm happy we won the football game (but) I don't like
the way our football team played in any phase of the game . . . I thought we took a step back today."
Nonetheless, Nebraska, improving to 9-3 overall and 6-2 in the Big 12 Conference, has earned another step forward in
Pelini's second season. As outright Big 12 North Division champion, the Cornhuskers play No. 3 Texas, the South Division champ, on Dec. 5 in Dallas for the
conference title..MORE
