Alfonzo Dennard spent the fourth quarter of Monday's Capital One Bowl in the Nebraska locker room, alone. "I didn't know what was going on."
There was no TV inside. No Internet. Fonzie's only news sources were the roars from the bleachers above him and the occasional trainer who popped in with a score update.
The roars, Dennard learned, were actually Gamecocks crowing about another SEC/Big Ten beatdown.
This is how it ended for Dennard, the all-Big Ten cornerback and Nebraska's best cover man since the 1990s (a.k.a. the glory years). This is how it ended for the Huskers, who finished with four losses for the fourth straight year.
Sadly and shamefully.
