per Joe:

“I won’t get into comparing scores,” Gophers defensive tackle Cameron Botticelli said. “But what Wisconsin showed everyone is, you can bottle that [Nebraska] offense up. And we’re going to bust our tail ends this week to make sure we do that on Saturday.”

When the Gophers upset Nebraska 34-23 last year at TCF Bank Stadium, the Cornhuskers converted only four of 12 third-down attempts. Ohio State, for comparison, was 9-for-13 on third down.

“That loss hurts, and that pain is going to fuel our preparation this week against Nebraska,” Botticelli said. “There’s going to be a special fervor in practice to get ready because of falling short on Saturday. And because of where this program can go still this season.”
