SEATTLE — Bo Pelini takesit one cliché at a time. TaylorMartinez lets his feet (and nowarm) do the talking. Ask the restof this band of brothers how farthey can go, they’re liable to tellyou the Sea-Tac airport.

Actions speak louder thanwords, and there’s no understat-ing Nebraska’s actions on a take-the-yacht-out-for-a-spin kind ofday next to Lake Washington.

They looked like a team thatneeds to be taken very seriously,whether you live in Manhattan,

Kan.; Austin, Texas; or NickSaban, Ala.

They looked like, well, a Ne-braska team used to look.

It’s a good look. It’s the look ofa champion.

Jake Locker, top photo, and his reputation took a beating Saturday. The Washington quarterback finished 4 for 20 for 71 yards. He threw one touchdown but also was picked off twice, including once for a touchdown.NU’s Roy Helu scores on a 65-yard run in the third quarter, beating Washington’s Desmond Trufant, No. 6, into the end zone. Helu, who had no carries in the first quarter, finished with 10 for 110 yards and two TDs.

SEATTLE — Nervous footballcoach is a redundant phrase.Sort of like wet rain. Or darknight.

Coaches come in all shapesand sizes. Young and old, blackand white.

But they’re all nervous. Espe-cially before kickoffs. Especial-ly when the ticket to victory is afreshman quarterback makinghis first road start at one of thenation’s loudest venues.

Taylor Martinez is changingthe rules.

Go back a few days. ToLincoln. To Nebraska’s indoorpractice facility, where coachespumped in enough artificialnoise to wake a hibernating bear.Two hours later, ears are ringing

Call him audacious or naive,but Martinez has them smiling

“It’s not just important that we got the win, but

it’s important that our guys realize we can be

pretty darn good when we put together all three

phases. That was as complete a game as we’ve

had since we’ve been together as a staff.”

—Defensive coordinator Carl Pelini
