Last night if you were like me you probably turned off the Nebraska vs Missouri game after the 2nd quarter. The game was 9-0 Missouri, both offenses were unable to start anything all half.
Thankful for me my roommate is a huge Nebraska fan so he asked me to swap between the Angels playoff game and the Cornhuskers game, Boy am I glad I did. When the 4th quarter started it looked as if Missouri had this game in the bag. Nebraska was down 12-0 and with them unable to drive the ball all game things were looking bleak. Then the defense stepped up as they have all year. Two interceptions quickly turned into 2 Zac Lee touchdown passes.
The Cornhuskers ran up 27 points in the 4th quarter. Three touchdowns coming off Zac Lee passes and one coming from a Roy Helu Jr. run. The only downside to this game is it looks like Helu Jr hurt his shoulder on the final drive of the game.
This was one of the greatest comebacks I have ever seen in college football. On the final Missouri drive it seemed like the refs wanted to keep it close with a handful of ludicrous call against Nebraska, but Nebraska held. Nebraska won 27-12. They improved to 4-1 overall.
