If Scott Frost’s job wasn’t already in jeopardy, it certainly is now.
The Nebraska Cornhuskers — who opened up today’s contest as 30-point favorites — are currently locked in a tight game with North Dakota.
The game was tied at 17-17 late in the third quarter before Nebraska finally scored a go-ahead touchdown.
Frost, who already led the Cornhuskers to a a heartbreaking loss to Northwestern in Week 0, is trending during this surprisingly close contest.
“Scott Frost on the hottest of seats,” one fan wrote.
Frost has failed to notch a single winning season since taking over as Nebraska’s head coach in 2018. With last week’s loss to Northwestern, his overall record moved to 15-30.
If the program wants to fire Frost before October 1, it would cost them a $15 million buyout. After that date, the buyout drops to $7.5 million.
Nebraska currently hold a 24-17 lead over North Dakota at the start of the fourth quarter.
