It was the Cornhuskers’ first shutout defeat in 221 games since the 1973 season.
Huskers’ 82 rushing yards — after they had won the NCAA rushing title in the regular season at 353.2 yards per game.
The Huskers' collective bunghole was so red hot from the friction that it caused a fire in the NBC control room.
Imagine only gaining 439 yards and scoring a paltry 22 against that defense.
Sad!
When the other team can't do at all the one thing they do, and thus do nothing but punt, and it's clear from the time you walked into the parking lot that the game was easily in hand, as opposed to having to come storming back in the 4th quarter, it tends to dampen one's enthusiasm. YMMV
I never realized before how god awful Billy Joe was just throwing the football. I know, Nebraska D but still. . . . . . .
He looked pretty good to me. Especially for the way the game was played 32 years ago.
A lot of fun memories in that video. When Bjornsen (who would become a receiver and have a decent NFL career) came in to play QB and Keith Jackson, obviously not Geography and Last Names Superiority Guy, said, "You'd think he'd be from Lynden." C'mon, Keith, Bjornsen is Norwegian. Lynden is the home of the mighty Dutch.

He missed more than 1/4 of his targets. I never thought that before I ever saw big Penix energy, btw.
Trailing 14 to 9 Beno Bryant fumbles a punt inside his 10 yard line and Nebraska goes up 21 to 9 in the 2nd half
UW starts to drive back and gets 16 more holding penalties pissing off James. When a 1st down is called back and it's 4th down and longish at midfield James calls time out and decides to go for it.
We need this Billy
No shit coach
And a legendary team scored the next 27 points
Pup and I don't need Google
Any update on the crowd reaction after the game?
It was the first, and last, time a Nebraska crowd had ever given a standing ovation to any team, including Nebraska.

I think it says more about the offense and Penix than it does about Hobert.
We old guys remember the days when anything over a 50% completion rate for a college QB was pretty good.

Is that wrong? Should I not do that?
Maybe we need @RoadDawg55 to show up & put a damper on your batin'.

Bermuda Triangle. Pretty good linebacking group IMO.
Notice the black shoes and stripes on the pants. Real football players.
UW would have lined up to go for it, gotten a false start, then punted. (insert fuckguysimtiredofthisshit.gif)
