Big Red pulls it out in double overtime 27-20 over Iowa

Nebraska 27 Iowa 20

Scoring more points in overtime than they did in regular game play Nebraska eeked out a win over Iowa in double overtime at Memorial Stadium.

Nebraska is now 4 and 0. Surely this will garner them a top 25 place in the college polls.

Alright alright I know a few posts back I said you wouldn't see much Nebraska football here, but I just couldn't help it.

I wasn't watching the game, I wasn't even listening to it on the radio. I just happened to be back in the bedroom where we have a radio that is perpetually set to 1400 KLIN when it came down to the wire.

13 to 13 and going into overtime with a supposed homefield advantage is exciting. Yes I went to the bigscreen in the living room and watched the game play out in full living color.

Way to Go Huskers Congrats and keep on winning!

Note: I was also back in the bedroom earlier in the game for something and heard as the Huskers failed in several plays to make a touchdown from essencially a couple of yards out. Had they been able to convert that they may have won without the OT.

It seemed it was a tough and hard fought game for both teams. When the wind is right we can hear the fans cheering at the stadium from our front porch.

Hey I live in Nebraska, I root for the hometown team even if I don't go to, listen to or watch all of their games.

Way to go Big Red.
