    Comment

        • Pat Fitzgerald is now tied with Lynn "Pappy" Waldorf as the winningest coach in Northwestern history. And he's what? Still only about 40?

                      • Some stats..

                        - Nebraska ranks #6 in the Big 10 in fumbles recovered with 10, again tied with Michigan. Northwestern leads the conference with 16 recoveries.
                        - Nebraska is tied with Minnesota for fourth in the conference with 11 interceptions. Purdue and Ohio State lead with 14 each.
                        - Nebraska's 20 fumbles lost is dead last in the conference (Illinois has 16 and Ohio State 11). Indiana and Iowa have lost three fumbles each on the year. Wisconsin has lost 6.

                        Special Teams
                        - Nebraska has punted 53 times, third least in the conference. Michigan has punted 41 times and Penn State 51 times.
                        - Nebraska has averaged 41.74 yards per punt, fifth highest average in the conference.
                        - NU has given up 241 yards on punt returns, worst in the conference (despite the relatively small number of punts).

                        - NU ranks sixth in the Big 10 and 60th nationally in kickoff returns, avaraging 21.28 ypr. Wisconsin leads the Big 10 at 23.05 ypr. but has only returned 20 kickoffs, easily the lowest in the conference (NU has returned 36).

                              • The Legend of Kenny Guiton did him in. Seriously -- I think he would have survived if he was 7-5 with a win over OSU.
