Chubba Purdy - Scores in relief dutyPurdy went 7-of-11 passing for 35 yards and one interception while adding 29 yards and a touchdown over five rushes during Saturday's 49-14 loss to Oklahoma.
ImpactPurdy stepped in for starting quarterback Casey Thompson after Nebraska's second-team offense took the field midway through the third quarter. The backup signal-caller notched Nebraska's only score outside of a 32-yard touchdown reception by Trey Palmer on the team's opening offensive series. Purdy's so-so performance in relief for Thompson does not figure to create any sort of position controversy heading into Nebraska's next game against Indiana on Oct. 1.

Anthony Grant - Swallowed up in lossGrant rushed 13 times for 36 yards during Saturday's 49-14 loss to Oklahoma.
ImpactGrant found very little success following his first two rushes, which went for 11 and 12 yards in the first quarter, respectively. The JUCO transfer led Nebraska's woeful offense in total carries before registering his final rushes on the team's second series of the second half. Grant should have more room to operate during the Cornhuskers' next game against Indiana on Oct. 1.

Casey Thompson - Smothered in blowoutThompson went 14-of-20 passing for 129 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 49-14 loss to Oklahoma. He also lost a total of 30 rushing yards over five carries.
ImpactThompson was unable to muster much production at all against the Sooners revamped defense under new head coach Brent Venables. After going a flawless 4-of-4 for 68 yards and his lone passing touchdown on the Huskers opening drive of the game, the junior signal-caller only completed 10 of his 16 passes while being sacked four times. Nevertheless, Thompson still finished with his highest completion percentage of the season (70 percent), and he should see easier competition when Nebraska next faces Indiana on Oct. 1.
