[11][12] Reviving an old and storied series with the powerhouse Minnesota team, a battle last fought in 1913, the Cornhuskers struck first and early, using the wind to their advantage in the passing game.
Officially, however, the result placed another "L" in the record against Nebraska, which moved the Cornhuskers to 2-11-2 against the Golden Gophers since the series began in 1900, farther away from their hopes of some day catching up with Minnesota.
[11][13] Any hangover from the Minnesota loss was quickly shaken off when the Cornhuskers made their second straight road game appearance and once again defeated Kansas with relative ease.
A couple of quick touchdowns late in the game put a scare into the Cornhuskers, but defeat was averted when an Iowa point after went wide, allowing Nebraska to escape Ames with a win, and improving them to 14-7-3 against the Hawkeyes.
Pittsburgh managed only eight first downs on the day to Nebraska's thirteen, and the Cornhusker defense nabbed three very timely turnovers to keep the Panthers out of the end zone, handing both teams the third tie in their shared series.
[11][16] Oklahoma fought Nebraska at every turn and held on to a scoreless first half, but finally cracked in the third quarter when the Sooners allowed a Cornhusker field goal to break the drought.
