Last week many Husker fans were questioning a small minority of fans who used racial slurs and horrible innuendoes after Husker Michael Rose-Ivey and two other players knelt during the National Anthem prior to their road game against Northwestern.

The Huskers would defeat Illinois on Saturday 31-16.
