Official recap
Despite a wind-chill reading of zero degrees and snow driven by winds gusting to 40 miles per hour, Nebraska rolled up 637 total-offense yards in romping past Iowa State.
The win was the ninth of the season for the seventh-ranked Huskers, and marked the 20th-consecutive season (the 25th in the last 27) in which Nebraska had won at least nine games. Steve Taylor rushed for 154 yards (three yards off his school record for quarterbacks) and three touchdowns, and overcame the elements to complete five of nine passes for 71 yards and one score.
