The Northwestern Wildcats headed to Nebraska Sunday, Oct. 25 hoping to avoid a third straight loss. After a back-and-forth game, the ‘Cats came away with a much needed win with a final score of 30-28.

History told us this would be a close game. In the five matchups between the Wildcats and the Cornhuskers since Nebraska joined the Big Ten, four have been decided by three or fewer points.

The Huskers outplayed Northwestern for much of the game. The ‘Cats saving grace in offense came from freshman quarterback Clayton Thorson.
