A strange team plays strange games and Nebraska has proven that to be the case in every game against Power Four opponents and Saturday's 34-31 win over Maryland was another example for the Nebraska Cornhuskers in a rare come from behind victory. The Sunday Side Session breaks down all the action as Omaha World Herald reporter Wilson Moore joins Mike Schaefer to discuss what happened in College Park and how things sit for a now 5-1 Nebraska football team. The two discuss Emmett Johnson, Nebraska's maddening inconsistencies, Dylan Raiola and more during the 50-minute podcast.  Are the Huskers equipped to make a run against a schedule that looks like it's both tougher and perhaps not as difficult as expected all at the same time?
