The Scott Frost era is finally over in Nebraska.
The Cornhuskers lost 45-42 to Georgia Southern on Saturday night, as the Eagles became the third Sun Belt team to beat a Power Five opponent in Week 2.
The embarrassing loss was the last straw for the Nebraska higher-ups, as they announced that they will be firing Frost.
Nebraska has fired head coach Scott Frost.

Nebraska plays Oklahoma in Week 3 before games against Indiana and Rutgers. Assistant Coach Mickey Joseph has been announced as the interim coach. He previously served as an assistant at LSU.
