Numbers, Statistics & Lies: Iowa Edition

Nebraska finally has its first 1000 yard (season) receiver. Devine Ozigbo became the 36th Husker player to record 1000 yards rushing in a season, but no Husker before Stanley Morgan, Jr. has ever caught the ball to the tune of quadruple digits. I guess we know why there’s so many #RunTheDangBall people in Nebraska.

To expand, not only is Stanley the first 1000 yard receiver, but only four Huskers have even recorded 900 yards receiving in a single season. One of those is Morgan (986; 2017). The others are Johnny Rodgers (942; 1972), Nate Swift (941; 2008) and Jordan Westerkamp (918; 2015).
