Official recap
In perhaps the Huskers' most-impressive combined offensive and defensive show of the season, Nebraska recorded 32 first downs for seven for Kansas, outrushed the Jayhawks 426 yards to six and out-offensed the home team, 546-69, in recording its second shutout of the season, 52-0.
Five different Huskers scored touchdowns, including I-back Mike Rozier, who had touchdown runs of 25 and 27 yards while enjoying a 123-yard day, and backup I-back Jeff Smith, a Wichita native who ran for a one-yard TD and returned a punt 65 yards for another. Turner Gill recovered sufficiently enough from the concussion he suffered the week before against Missouri to complete 10 of 14 passes for 115 yards and a 12-yard TD to tight end Jamie Williams. The win was the Huskers' 14th-straight over the Jayhawks.
