Armstrong pulled a hamstring in a Huskers win two weeks ago, a win that kept Armstrong’s team in the hunt for the Big Ten West.
Fyfe started a game at Memorial Stadium, and he came away a victor Saturday.
Black Friday in Iowa City will be a high-stakes, entertaining affair. But the story-story is the Hawkeyes didn’t cave after that 41-14 disaster at Penn State. “But we would have one good catch, move the chains and then a three-and-out from there”. “There’s not going to be that many people in the picture of double digit wins during the season”.
It could be argued that what happened this fall is nearly as impressive as ’15. They could have wilted away. Instead, they did the opposite.
“The guy holds every record that’s meaningful over at Nebraska”.
Last year, when the two teams played in Lincoln, Armstrong threw four interceptions.
Consider how they arrived at an 8-4 record. NU can clinch at least a share of the title with a win Saturday. “We’re all college football fans as well”. But, as usual, defence will likely decide a series in which 28 points or less has been enough to win in four of the last five meetings. They are 9-2 with the under this season, hitting it in eight of their last nine games.
The Under is 4-1 in the Hawkeyes last 5 home games.
Langsdorf commented on Nebraska’s quarterback selection process for this Saturday’s game.
Iowa broke open what was expected to be a tight game with a 75-yard TD run by Akrum Wadley and a 77-yard touchdown throw from Beathard to Riley McCarron in the first quarter. The Gophers increased their lead to 19-17, but the Huskers took a three-point run of their own, forcing a Minnesota timeout down 20-19. But before they could settle in, Iowa countered. I’d like to see Iowa bring a lot of pressure to try and force the Husker QB into some poor decisions. Greg Ward gave Houston a 44-41 lead with 1:29 remaining with his fourth touchdown pass, a 3-yarder to Chance Allen.
Washington State: The Cougars defense was exposed for the second straight week. It featured excellent balance. On the ground, Terrell Newby rushed for 98 yards and three touchdowns in 22 carries while Tre Bryant had 56 yards in 13 carries.
Despite struggling to produce any consistent offensive success early, the Hawkeyes had some home runs in them, scoring two first-quarter touchdowns on plays of more than 70 yards. They were 5 of 18 on third down. If neither can go, Nebraska is left with No. 3 quarterback Zack Darlington. He added three touchbacks in kickoffs.
Apart from a 62-3 demolition at Ohio State, the Cornhuskers have been playing strong defense with 21.2 points allowed per game on the season. See what they had to say in this HN TV video interviews.
The Nebraska football team practiced for just under two hours in half pads and helmets Tuesday evening.
The flash came early in the game, setting the stage for Iowa to grind the Blackshirts into the turf. It would have been hard to argue.
Set 3: Minnesota hit.306 to Nebraska’s.220 to win the set 28-26 and stay in the match. His first game as Iowa’s head coach in 2000, was a 42-7 loss.
This season wasn’t last season for the Hawkeyes.
While not the same, it brings to mind the ’08 season. But Memphis (8-4, 5-3) drove 72 yards in five plays for the victor. It finished with four wins in a row, coming together instead of splitting apart.
Nebraska won 10 matches against ranked teams to get in position to win the league title, but will need one more to do so.
The full NCAA seedings will be announced at the end of the regular season on November 27, televised live on ESPNU, 8 p.m. CT. This team will be remembered for its resiliency and never-say-die attitude.
