    Five things

    FIVE THINGS WE LEARNED

    1

    I-back Roy Helu isn't done yet, firing off a 63-yard run on the way to his first 100-yard game since Sept. 19.

    2

    Junior cornerback Prince Amukamara is becoming more and more capable of making plays on a regular basis.

    3

    The Huskers' pass defense is a nice combination of pressure and defenders becoming more aggressive in coverage.

    4

    Don't count Nebraska out of the Big 12 North race, even with Kansas State ahead one game in the win column.

    5

    The Nebraska offensive line still can't completely weed out some of its penalty problems.

    FIVE THINGS WE STILL DON'T KNOW

    1

    Where's this quarterback deal going? Nebraska hinted it would play both Cody Green and Zac Lee — and did.

    2

    Where was Phillip Dillard in September? Because the senior linebacker sure seems to be doing pretty well right now.

    3

    How does Nebraska improve its passing game, where it has five interceptions and five touchdowns in Big 12 play?

    4

    Can the Huskers stand a little prosperity? The last time they gained some momentum, they gave it away.

    5

    How much more pressure can Nebraska afford to put on its defense in coming weeks?
