Huskers Fall in Overtime: Wisconsin’s Dare Ogunbowale scored on an 11-yard run in overtime, and No. 11 Wisconsin held on to beat No. 7 Nebraska 23-17 to hand the Cornhuskers their first loss of the season.

The Badgers stopped Nebraska on fourth-and-8 from the 23 when defensive back D’Cota Dixon swatted away a pass in the end zone from Tommy Armstrong Jr. intended for Stanley Morgan Jr.

Nebraska came back from a 10-point deficit in the fourth quarter. Drew Brown’s 35-yard field goal with 3:43 left tied it at 17.

Wisconsin left the door open in OT, but Nebraska wasn’t quite ready to push through.

The Huskers got beat, but they aren’t broken or bitter. They’re itching to get back in the arena.

This was a blown chance, a missed opportunity. But it made you think there will be more opportunities ahead.

And now we know more about these Huskers. They’re pretty good. They just weren’t quite good enough on this night.

What ensued showed how evenly matched the teams are and how much promise the rivalry holds.

Suffice it to say, heads won’t be hanging around North Stadium this week.

We still don’t know for sure how the West will be won – or by who.

Keeler

[The Huskers] proved, when backed in a corner, that they can take a punch. And, more to the point, that they’re sure as hell not done swinging yet.
