NOTE
As impressive as the Huskers defensive stats
were on this record-setting night, the domination
was far more complete before Arizonas final
possession. With 6:50 left in the fourth quarter,
Arizonas offensive production looked like this:
38 plays, 37 yards, 3 first downs
On their final possession, the Wildcats:
Nearly tripled their total yardage.
Doubled their first downs.
Increased their play count by more than a third.
Even so, Nebraska set records in all three
categories, two of them by comfortable margins.
