The Husker defense will come back to those scrimmages in the fall with a much fuller arsenal than was seen in the spring game. But Mikai Gbayor wasn't leaning on that as an out when talking about the standard for Nebraska's defense – no matter who is on the field. Yes, you could name off about eight to 10 key defenders who either didn't play or barely played on that last Saturday in April.

Many people have lost faith in the news and question truth from all comers. The idea of a universal truth, outside of the sky being blue and that one plus one equals two, seems to be more and more elusive.

Cats though? No fact check needed. They're the best.
