Wally's fearless prediction:
The Huskers head on the road again to face Iowa State in a battle of the conference's
winless. This game is a must-win for Nebraska if they hope to take a first step in the
rebuilding process and receive a bowl bid, and the all important 15 December practices
that go along with it. They should be able to build on the momentum from a solid effort in Lubbock.
Series history: Nebraska is 84-16-2 against Iowa State
Last game: 2007 - Nebraska won 35-17
Iowa State's record in 2007: 3-9
Wally's view from the cheap seats:
Nebraska absolutely dominated in the first half and looked like the Nebraska of old again,
even throwing in a few option plays. NU came out flat after halftime and allowed Iowa State
to make a game of it but Nebraska was able to capitalize on turnovers to save the day.
A few more comments and observations:
* The Nebraska defense was finally able to force some turnovers!
* Of course, the offense fumbled five times
* Penalties were finally not a problem today for a change
* 548 yards of offense brought a tear to my eyes
* Joey Ganz was solid again in throwing 27/37 for 328 yards and no INTs
* This was a great win, but it is Iowa State
