LAST 13 YEAR MATCHUPS
LW Nebraska got 1 step closer to winning the North by bullying Kansas 20-3. The Huskers actually had 20-5 FD and 397-87 yd edges over the Hawks but the conservative gm plan due to QB Martinez’s not fully 100% ankle kept it relatively close. A&M meanwhile won its 3rd straight with QB Tannehill at the helm as they erased a 16 pt 1H deficit in a 42-30 win at Baylor. The Bears missed 2 FG’s, had another blk’d and missed an xp as A&M was outgained 516-423. A&M now finds themselves just 1 gm back in the South and Tannehill is avg 317 ypg (68%) with a 7-3 ratio in his 3 starts but will have a tough time here going against NU’s #1 NCAA pass eff D (140, 48%, 10-16 ratio) led by future #1 DC CB Amukamara. Nebraska clinches the North while knocking the Ags out of the South race.
