So, this is the version of Nebraska football that your dad always told you about, huh?
I enjoy watching it. Seems fun.
Led by freshman QB Dylan Raiola and an absolutely lethal two-way performance in the offensive run game and all-around defensive game, the Huskers beat the brakes off Colorado on Saturday night, 28-10.
The Huskers built a 21-0 lead midway through the second quarter, then 28-0 with less than a minute to play in the first half and rolled to an 18-point win.
Let's get to some Snap Judgments! Here's my instant analysis as the Huskers move themselves to a happy 2-0 start and embarrassed one of their biggest rivals on national TV.

The national coming-out party
I said it last week in our postgame analysis right after the Huskers' win over UTEP and again in our Bold Predictions piece on Thursday:
Saturday night's latest edition of the Nebraska-Colorado rivalry was all set up to become the national coming-out party for Raiola ... and a national revival of the Nebraska football program.
Always feels good to be right.
How did that one feel, Husker fans?
