Cornhusker Nation rose as one to give our Dawgs a standing ovulation.

Down 21-9 with 4:00 left in the third quarter, the Huskies won 36-21 in Lincoln.

I never really understood the drama of that game. All I knew about it was from my dad's VHS tape of "The Perfect Season" and they totally glossed over the fact we were getting our ass kicked most of the game.

Either way the 75 yard Jay Berry run where he took his helmet off was one of my favorite things ever.

Beno Bryant fielded a punt on his own 4-yard line and fumbled. Nebraska recovered and quickly scored to go up 21-9. Beno told me in an interview that he went to the sidelines and sat down on the bench totally distraught. Blly Joe Hobert went up to him, grabbed him by the neck, looked deep into his eyes and said, "We ain't going to lose!" and then walked away.

And then the Huskies scored 27 unanswered points to win 36-21. Don James told me in an interview that it was the best 20 minutes of football he had ever seen a team play.

And Barry's run was 81 yards.

I'm 81% sure that it was a $75K run.
