OMAHA, Neb. (AP) - Tom Osborne isn't assessing Bo Pelini's performance on wins and losses - though the Nebraska athletic director says 8-4 was a "very good" first season for the Cornhuskers' coach.
To Osborne, the most important thing Pelini did in 2008 was change the culture after a malaise set in during Bill Callahan's four years.
Osborne said Sunday that he was looking for better effort, a better attitude and a higher level of confidence. He says Pelini delivered on all counts.
