Nebraska is bringing in veteran college coach Dana Holgorsen as a consultant, hoping he can help the Cornhuskers put some points on the scoreboard.

Behind freshman quarterback Dylan Raiola, the Huskers are averaging 23.6 points — tied for 100th in the nation — per game. The offense is 99th nationally in yards gained with an average of 354.1.

Holgorsen, 53, was fired from Houston last November after a 31-28 record in five seasons. He previously was the head coach at West Virginia (2011-18) and posted a 61-41 record.

Earlier this season, Holgorsen served in a scout and consultant role for TCU. He reportedly will remain with Nebraska through the end of the season but could be in line for a job on the Nebraska staff in 2025.

The Huskers (5-4, 2-4 Big Ten) have put up an average of 18.3 points per game in conference play and have lost three in a row.

Nebraska head coach Matt Rhule said he was going to add “outside people” to his circle as the team flounders down the stretch.

“Eighteen points a game. It’s not good enough,” Rhule said Monday.

The Huskers have a bye this week, then will face Southern California in Los Angeles on Nov. 16 and close the season with traditional Big Ten rivals Wisconsin (Nov. 23) and Iowa (Nov. 29).
