First Quarter

14:48 — Team safety. Facing second down at the eight-yard line, Nebraska’s Joe Dailey had an errant toss back to Tierre Green on an attempted sweep play that rolled into the end zone. Dailey recovered the ball near the back of the end zone, but was pushed out of the back by two KU defensive linemen. (Kansas 2, Nebraska 0).

Second Quarter

10:47 — Johnny Beck 36 field goal. Kansas started the drive at its own 26-yard line and moved downfield thanks to three consecutive completions to Gary Heaggans (15, 23 yards) and Mark Simmons (nine yards). (Kansas 5, Nebraska 0).

2:57 — Cory Ross 18 run. KU’s run defense struggled during a short drive that started at KU’s 47-yard line. Ross picked up gains of seven and nine yards, while Brandon Jackson added an eight-yard carry to set up first-and-10 at the 18-yard line. There, Ross scooted through a small hole and bolted toward the right corner of the end zone for the score. Sandro DeAngelis kick. (Nebraska 7, Kansas 5).

Third Quarter

6:59 — Johnny Beck 39 field goal. KU slowly worked its way downfield after starting the drive at its own 27. The series was barely surviving until a 29-yard run by John Randle put KU in field-goal range. The Jayhawks lost yardage after Randle’s big gain, but KU was still in Beck’s range. (Kansas 8, Nebraska 7).

4:12 — Cory Ross 14 pass from Joe Dailey. The Huskers moved the ball swiftly downfield, the biggest dent a 37-yard reception from Dailey to Ross Pilkington. Facing third down at the 14-yard line, Dailey found Ross on a screen pass to the right side, and Ross bolted in the end zone for the score. Sandro DeAngelis kick. (Nebraska 14, Kansas 8).
