ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Linebacker Caleb Tannor scanned the white picnic table for a postgame snack.

The true freshman selected fruit with little bruising, then picked up his brown box containing a small dinner and headed toward the idling bus. He stopped for a moment to put on his headphones. And as he did, the tick-taca from the Michigan marching band clicked off the brick inside the one tunnel of the 91-year-old Michigan Stadium.

“Watch out, please!” A Michigan official down the tunnel yelled. “Band coming through!”

A few more Huskers trickled out of the locker room to pick up dinner, and slowly, the band marched in unison, filing up the only way into the stadium and only way out. In a the narrow tunnel, Nebraska players had no choice but to find a piece of fruit quickly, and exit the tunnel to get out of the way.

This is what is going to happen this week with Nebraska football, coaches and players said after the 56-10 drubbing by Michigan on Saturday. Some guys on the team — this week — will have no choice. Either they make a quick decision to work hard to fix the smorgasbord of issues, or they need to get out of the way.
