And let "The Countdown" begin....

49 Days!!!

 

The date, October 21st, 1995. The place -- Memorial Stadium. The event -- another beatdown of the drool cup carrying, purple clad losers from Craphatten. On it's way to their fourth National Championship, Nebraska faced it's first true speed bump of the season (well more of a speed pebble) with a matchup against #8 Kansas State. #2 Nebraska (yeah, hard to believe Nebraska was #2 at all that season. Should have been #1, #2 and #3) rolled to an easy victory at home, 49-25. That game proved two things; 1.) Nebraska was for real and 2.) Kansas State stills sucks....

48 days!!!

 

Team records:

Points, Quarter: 1st: 38; vs. Baylor, Oct. 21, 2000

2nd: 35; at Kansas, Nov. 4, 1978; vs. Kansas, Oct. 26, 1996

3rd: 48; vs. Colorado, Oct. 22, 1983

4th: 30; at Hawaii, Dec. 4, 1982

I'm surprised the '95 game vs ASU didn't make the list, I know we dropped 63 on them in the 1st half. We had to score more than 30 in one of the quarters.
