— Nebraska fired coach Mike Riley on Saturday after three seasons in which he was unable to return the Cornhuskers to national prominence let alone make them a factor in the Big Ten. The Cornhuskers finished the season 4-8 after a 56-14 loss at home to Iowa on Friday. Linebackers coach Trent Bray is staying on to serve as interim head coach until a permanent coach is hired. Riley won only 54 per cent of his games in two stints totalling 14 years at Oregon State. The Huskers won their first seven games in 2016 and were as high as No.
