On SI's Caleb Sisk believes Nebraska's Dylan Raiola handed Shedeur Sanders an off-field L for taking a photo with two Barstool Sports personalities and swagger-jacking the infamous watch pose of the "Grown QB."

"Sanders took an L on the field but he also took an L off the field as he was taunted by Raiola after the game in the locker room as Raiola flashed his watch with both Will Compton and Taylor Lewan aka Bussin' With The Boys," Sisk wrote.

"It’s obvious that the standout true freshman phenom got the last laugh over the future first-round draft pick Sanders."

This writer agrees with Sisk's sentiment that Raiola got the last laugh on Sanders. But it's because his team won. Not because he posed for a photo.

In fact, if anything, Colorado fans got a good laugh too. Don't forget that Raiola was being compared to Patrick Mahomes after a 40-7 wn over UTEP. Even with the Buffs defensive line looking hardly improved against a Power 4 unit, Raiola didn't look like the Huskers' savior like many label him to be.

Raiola is undeniably impressive. 23/30 passing as a true freshman is nothing to discredit. He was better than Sanders on September 7 at Memorial Stadium.

But these expectations can set the QB, and Big Red's faithful, up for a rude awakening down the line. Nebraska has had enough heartbreak over the years and doesn't need to get their hopes up only for Ohio State, USC, and Iowa, and possibly others, to let them down later this season.
