Morgan Sets Receiving Record in Season-Ending Loss: After a 14-14 first half, Nebraska was outscored 42-0 the rest of the way in a 56-14 loss to Iowa.

With the win, the Hawkeyes won the Heroes Trophy for the third straight year and notched their third straight victory in Lincoln dating back to 2013.

A bright spot for the Huskers was junior wide receiver Stanley Morgan Jr., who finished the day with 74 yards on seven catches and both of Nebraska’s touchdowns. Morgan finished the 2017 campaign with 986 yards, breaking Johnny Rodgers’ single-season record of 942 yards in 1972.

Running back Akrum Wadley paced the Iowa attack with 159 yards and three touchdowns on 19 carries.

Commentary

Christopherson

It’s almost inexplicable how much it fell apart. But it’s been the story far too often for Husker football.

The Hawkeyes are bowling, Shawn. The program you left behind looks like King Kong just sat on it.

The Riley regime was going to end this weekend, sure, but it didn’t have to end like this.

It’s going to take a special coach, Mike Riley or otherwise, to step up to the challenge.

There’s no perfect way to fire a coach. What I do know is that this needs to end soon, needs clarity immediately.

Eichorst may have started this war with Iowa, but there's no question Ferentz finished it on Friday.

Nebraska can't get used to Friday's level of inept play. Ever.

Hamar

There may never have been another fan base any more ready to get a season over.

Grand Island Independent

Nebraska has gone from ‘Offensive Lineman U’ to the school who breaks a few passing records while getting the hell beat out of it at the line of scrimmage.

The Hawkeyes needed something to make them feel better entering this game. Nebraska gave them an entire pharmacy.

Cedar Rapids Gazette

The Huskers need more walk-ons like senior linebacker Chris Weber, who led the Blackshirts this season with 95 tackles.
