Pelini added a Big Ten Legends Division title in 2012 to three straight Big 12 North Division crowns from 2008 to 2010, when Pelini was the the first coach in the history of the Big 12 to win at least a share of a division title in each of his first three years. He has guided Nebraska to at least nine wins each of his first five seasons in Lincoln, and three 10- win seasons. A win over Iowa on Friday would give Nebraska its sixth-straight nine-win season under Pelini s direction. Pelini has surpassed 50 career wins at Nebraska in 2013, making him just the fifth Husker coach to reach that milestone, joining Tom Osborne, Bob Devaney, Frank Solich and Dana X. Bible. Pelini took charge of the Huskers after a highly successful five-year run as a collegiate defensive coordinator, including orchestrating NU s defensive efforts in Pelini picked up his first college head coaching victory as NU s interim coach in the 2003 Alamo Bowl against Michigan State. Following his one season at Nebraska, Pelini served as the co-defensive coordinator at Oklahoma in 2004, helping the Sooners to the Big 12 title and BCS title game. He then followed with three seasons as the defensive coordinator at LSU. With the Tigers, Pelini led three consecutive defenses to No. 3 national rankings in total defense. He culminated his time in Baton Rouge by helping the Tigers to the 2007 national championship. In addition to his five seasons as an assistant at the collegiate level, Pelini coached in the NFL for nine seasons, serving three years each with the San Francisco 49ers, New England Patriots and Green Bay Packers. Pelini was a team captain and four-year letterman as a safety at Ohio State from 1987 to Pelini Stacks up Well with Peers In guiding Nebraska to a record, Pelini has put himself in some impressive company.» Among schools currently in a BCS-AQ conference, Pelini was just the 11th head coach in college football history to win at least nine games in each of his first five seasons on the job at that school. The group includes three Nebraska coaches (Bob Devaney, Tom Osborne, Pelini).» When looking only at coaches in their first head coaching job at a BCS school, Pelini is one of only four to win nine games in each of their first five years, joining Osborne, Barry Switzer (Oklahoma) and Larry Coker (Miami).» Pelini was among a group of 18 FBS head coaches who were hired for their jobs beginning with the 2008 season. Pelini leads that group of 18 head coaches in victories over the past five-plus years with 56 wins. In fact, Pelini is one of only six coaches in the group of 18 still in the job they were hired for prior to the 2008 season. Pelini Continues Defensive Accomplishments at Nebraska At Nebraska, Pelini has continued his history of building championship defenses. In 2009, the Huskers led the nation in scoring defense and had the nation s best scoring defensive improvement (18.1 ppg). When combining statistics from the past four-plus seasons, NU ranks third in pass efficiency defense, third in passing defense, 15th in scoring defense and 18th in total defense. With Pelini s previous track record, the success of his Nebraska defenses is no surprise. 4Pelini led the 2003 Blackshirts to a school-record 47 takeaways, including a Big 12-record 32 interceptions, and finished second nationally in scoring defense, first in pass efficiency defense and 11th in total defense. 4Pelini guided LSU defenses to No. 3 national finishes in total defense each of his three seasons in Baton Rouge. 4In 146 games as a collegiate coach, Pelini s defenses have posted 10 shutouts, held the opposition to seven points or less 41 times and to 20 points or less 92 times.

The 18-year-old Amundson also helped save the life of a fellow citizen at Harlan County Lake on Labor Day. A rural Fairbury volunteer firefighter, Amundson had been loading his jet ski onto his pickup truck as another man was attempting to put his boat into the lake. While attempting to put the boat in the lake, the brakes went out on the man s truck, sending the boat, truck and man into Harlan County Lake.

Nebraska is 5-0 in 2013 when rushing for at least 200 yards. 4Despite not hitting the 200-yard rushing mark, Nebraska had one of its top games on the ground against Michigan State. The Huskers rushed for 182 yards on a Spartan defense that was allowing just 43.4 rushing yards per game. Nebraska was the first team to top 100 yards rushing against MSU since the Huskers ran for 313 yards last year in East Lansing. 4Through 11 games, Nebraska I-backs Ameer Abdullah (1,483 yards), Imani Cross (438) and Terrell Newby (293) have combined for 2,214 rushing yards and 19 rushing touchdowns.

A year ago, NU averaged rushing yards per game to lead the Big Ten and rank eighth nationally in rushing offense. The rushing average per game was the best by NU since the Huskers ran for yards per game in Nebraska has averaged better than 200 rushing yards per game for three straight seasons and ranked in the top 15 nationally in that category each year from 2010 to In 2010, Nebraska ranked first in the Big 12 and ninth nationally, and in 2011 NU rushed for yards per game, good for third in the Big Ten and 15th nationally. 4 With Abdullah posting 1,483 rushing yards in 2013, Nebraska has had a 1,000-yard rusher each of the past five seasons.

With Abdullah and Cross both surpassing 100 yards in the season opener, Nebraska now has 75 alltime games with two 100-yard rushers.

The Huskers were one of only 19 schools in the country to average better than 200 yards per game in both rushing and passing in 2012, and the only Big Ten school in the club last season. Nebraska is looking for similar balance this season, and is averaging rushing yards per game, and passing yards per contest. Nebraska is just shy of joining a group of 18 teams in the country averaging 200 yards per game both rushing and passing, including Ohio State in the Big Ten.

Johnny Rodgers, Terrence Nunn, Quincy Enunwa, Kenny Bell, Enunwa Producing Monster Senior Season Nebraska s passing game in 2013 has been paced by the play of a pair of standout receivers, including senior Quincy Enunwa, one of four Nebraska captains. The 6-2, 225-pound Enunwa has turned into the favorite red zone target for Nebraska s quarterbacks in Enunwa has caught nine touchdowns, including a pair of touchdowns against both Southern Miss and UCLA. Enunwa is tied for first in the Big Ten and ranks 16th nationally in touchdown receptions. Enunwa entered the 2013 season with three career touchdowns, but has tripled that total this season. If Enunwa were to add a third multiple-td catch game in 2013, he would be the first Husker with three games with two or more TD catches in a season since Irving Fryar in With his nine touchdowns, Enunwa is tied for third on the Nebraska single-season TD receptions list and is within striking distance of the school record of 11 touchdown catches by Johnny Rodgers in Enunwa is tied for the team lead with 44 receptions for a team-high 578 yards this fall. His 578 yards leave him 87 yards from the top 10 on the NU single-season receiving yardage list. Enunwa set a career-high with seven catches for 69 yards at Michigan, bettering four previous games in his career with six catches. Enunwa had a season-high 80 receiving yards on four catches against Illinois. 4Enunwa continues to move up the Nebraska career receptions list. Enunwa has 108 career receptions, good for a tie for sixth on the Husker career receptions list, alongside Todd Peterson. 4Enunwa eclipsed the 1,000-yard career receiving yardage mark against Illinois, becoming the 22nd Nebraska player to accomplish that feat. Against Michigan, Enunwa moved into the top 10 on the NU career receiving yardage list. His total of 1,351 career receiving yards is 10th in school history. 4Enunwa had a streak of 23 straight games with at least one catch end against Michigan State. The 23-game streak tied for the third-longest streak in school history. 4Enunwa has 44 receptions this season, good for a tie for ninth on the Nebraska single-season chart. Last season Enunwa caught 42 passes, and he is one of just five players in Nebraska history to record two seasons with 40-plus receptions, joining Johnny Rodgers, Nate Swift, Terrence Nunn and teammate Kenny Bell. 4Last season, Enunwa and Bell became just the fifth Nebraska duo to top 40 catches in the same season. The twosome has duplicated the feat in 2013, and became the only receiving tandem to do that twice in school history. Bell Moving Near Top of Nebraska Receiving Charts Junior receiver Kenny Bell has continued to be a consistent receiving threat for the Huskers in 2013, while nearing the top of the Nebraska receiving charts. Bell has been slowed by nagging injuries in recent weeks, but remains one of the Big Ten s top receivers. Bell has 44 catches for 499 yards and four touchdowns in He moved past the 40-catch mark with five receptions at Penn State. Following a seven-catch effort in the season opener vs. Wyoming, Bell added three catches, including a 21-yard touchdown grab against Southern Miss, then followed with six receptions for 68 yards, including a 22-yard TD grab against UCLA. Bell had two catches against South Dakota State to push his career receptions total to 100, making him the seventh Husker player with 100 career receptions. He had four catches for 65 yards against Illinois, including a spectacular 37-yard touchdown catch in the third quarter. Bell had a clutch 26-yard grab on fourth down at Michigan to set up the Huskers game-winning touchdown. Against Michigan State, Bell tied his season high with seven receptions good for a season-high 81 yards. His day included a 38-yard touchdown grab, for his fourth receiving score of the season. The seven catches also tied for the second-best receptions output of his career. Bell moved into third place on the Nebraska career receiving yardage list against Michigan State, and now has 1,823 career receiving yards. Bell has 126 career receptions to rank fifth in school history, and he is well on his way to threatening the Nebraska career receptions record of 166 by Nate Swift from 2005 to With four touchdown catches this season, Bell has pushed his career TD reception total to 15, good for a tie for fourth on the NU career TD reception list. He is one touchdown catch from moving into a tie for third on the career chart. Bell has a knack for the big play. Each of his last 13 touchdown receptions have covered at least 20 yards, including all four of his TD catches in Bell has 44 receptions this season, becoming just the fifth player in school history with two seasons of 40 or more receptions, joining Enunwa Johnny Rodgers, Terrence Nunn and Nate Swift. With six more receptions this season, Bell would join Rodgers as the only players in NU history with two 50-reception seasons. The passing game is not the only area where Bell has displayed his play-making ability. Bell averages 29.5 yards on 17 kickoff returns this season, punctuated by a 99-yard kickoff return for a touchdown at Penn State. Bell ranks first in the Big Ten and seventh in the nation in kickoff return average.

The Huskers topped 50 points against both Southern Miss and South Dakota State. 4The Huskers 59 points against South Dakota State were the second-most Nebraska has scored in six seasons under Head Coach Bo Pelini, while the 56 points against Southern Miss tied for the third most. The two games give Nebraska eight 50-plus point outings under Pelini. 4Since the start of the 2012 season, Nebraska has scored at least 30 points in 15 of 24 games. 4Bell had a streak of 23 straight games with a catch end at Iowa in 2012, the third-longest streak in NU history. 4 Bell reached the 1,000-yard career receiving mark in 20 games, making him the second-fastest Husker to reach that mark.

Armstrong has started seven of the past eight games and along with senior Ron Kellogg III has guided a banged-up Nebraska offense. Despite injuries to more than half of the Huskers regular offensive starters, Armstrong has a 6-1 record as Nebraska s starting quarterback. Armstrong won his first five starts, matching Martinez s 5-0 mark as a redshirt freshman to begin the 2010 season. The last Nebraska quarterback to win more consecutive games to begin his career as a starter than Armstrong s five wins was when senior Brook Berringer won all seven of his starts in While Armstrong has drawn the starting assignments, Kellogg has also been a big part of the Huskers success. Kellogg threw a winning Hail Mary touchdown pass against Northwestern, and played nearly the entire Penn State game. Kellogg threw for a career-high 191 yards and a touchdown in leading Nebraska to a overtime victory. Under the direction of Armstrong and Kellogg, NU has averaged yards of total offense and 33.9 points per game. 4Armstrong guided Nebraska to a touchdown on its opening possession in each of his first four starts this season. Against Michigan, Armstrong led scoring drives on the second and third drives of the afternoon. 4NU did not punt in the first half against either South Dakota State or Illinois, the first two games that Armstrong started. 4Nebraska rushed for 335 yards against both South Dakota State and Illinois, and had 251 yards on the ground against Purdue. NU posted 277 passing yards in the win over Northwestern. The injury to Martinez is only a small part of the injury story for the Nebraska offense. During the second half of the Northwestern game, Nebraska was without six of its regular offensive starters. Since then, Nebraska has suffered several additional injuries, forcing the Huskers to shuffle their offensive personnel, particularly on the offensive line. That group of injured players includes a pair of returning All-Big Ten players in Martinez and right guard Spencer Long, who was lost for the season with a knee injury at Purdue. Starting left guard Jake Cotton suffered a sprained knee against Northwestern causing Nebraska to shuffle its offensive line. Starting senior tackle Jeremiah Sirles suffered a similar injury against Michigan, and has started each of the past two games, but has seen limited playing time. In practice prior to the Michigan State game, offensive guard Mike Moudy who originally replaced Spencer Long in the starting lineup suffered a shoulder injury and has missed the past two games. Starting center Cole Pensick also suffered a sprained knee against Michigan State and was at less than full speed against Penn State, but did see action. Tight end Jake Long missed three straight games before returning to duty at Michigan. Receiver Jamal Turner was injured against Minnesota and has missed the past four games. Fellow receiver Kenny Bell played only a handful of snaps against Northwestern before leaving with an injury, and playing at less than full speed in recent weeks. Receiver Alonzo Moore suffered a leg injury against MSU and missed the Penn State game. Husker O-Line Continues Moving Forward Despite Injuries to Long, Others The veteran Nebraska offensive line lost its leader when senior guard Spencer Long suffered a knee injury against Purdue. Long underwent surgery and is lost for the season. The 6-4, 315-pound Long had started every game at right guard since the start of the 2011 season, a streak of 33 straight games. Long s play was a key factor in Nebraska fielding one of the nation s top rushing offenses each of the past three seasons. The injury to Long was just the first in a series of setbacks for the Husker front line. The injury bug has also hit starting left guard Jake Cotton, starting tackle Jeremiah Sirles, starting center/guard Cole Pensick and guard Mike Moudy. Pensick and senior Andrew Rodriguez have been asked to play multiple positions due to the injuries. Long was the most decorated of the veteran line coming into The former walk-on earned first-team All-Big Ten honors from both the league media and coaches, and was a second-team All-America pick by the Associated Press and the Walter Camp Foundation in Long became the first NU offensive lineman since 2001 to be named a first- or second-team All-American. He is the first returning All-American on the offensive line since Long was on his way for similar honors this season, being named a third-team Mid-Season All-American by Phil Steele. Long is still a candidate for honors off the field. He was named an Academic All-District VII selection, marking the third straight year he has been on that team. Long has also been named as one of 16 recipients of the National Football Foundation/College Hall of Fame National Scholar-Athlete Award. Long s fellow offensive linemen are honoring him for the rest of the 2013 season, with one player wearing No. 61 each week. Sirles will wear the number against Iowa. Long is far from the only veteran on the line. Sirles has started 39 games in his career, including 25 straight games the past two seasons. Fellow senior tackle Brent Qvale earned 13 starts at left tackle in 2012, and has started the past three games. He has played in 51 games in his Nebraska career. They are joined on the line by fellow seniors Rodriguez and Pensick, who both had starting experience prior to this season. Pensick split time between guard and center in 2012, before starting the final two games at center, and the first 10 games this season. Rodriguez was the top reserve at tackle in 2012, and has 19 career starts, including every game this season, eight at tackle and three at guard. Game 12 vs. Iowa Nebraska Football

The surge by the Blackshirts was highlighted by one of its most dominant defensive efforts in recent years in a win at Michigan on Nov. 9. The Blackshirt defense allowed only 175 total yards, including -21 rushing yards, fueled by seven sacks and 16 tackles for loss. The effort against the Wolverines was notable in several ways, including... 4The 175 yards of total offense for Michigan was the fewest by a Nebraska opponent since Kansas had just 87 yards of offense in Nebraska limited Michigan to less than 200 yards for the second consecutive season after the Wolverines had just 188 total yards last year in Lincoln. 4The -21 rushing yards for Michigan tied for the sixth-best rushing defense effort in school history by Nebraska. It was the best rush defense effort for the Blackshirts since NU allowed -25 rushing yards against Troy State in Michigan s longest run in the game was seven yards. 4Nebraska s seven sacks were a season-high and Nebraska s most since also having seven sacks against Idaho State last season in Lincoln. The Husker defense totaled 16 tackles for loss, the most since Nebraska had a school-record 18 tackles for loss against Maine in The Blackshirts held up on short fields against Michigan. The Wolverines started three drives in Nebraska territory, including two following second-half turnovers. On those drives, Michigan gained a total of nine yards on 10 offensive snaps. The drives ended on downs, a punt and a Michigan field goal after taking over at the NU 26. Effort at Michigan Continues Strong Defensive Effort in Big Ten Play Nebraska s defensive numbers in Big Ten play stack up well. In conference play, the Nebraska defense is allowing yards per game to rank fourth in the conference in defense in league contests. Nebraska s defense was particularly strong in back-to-back games against Northwestern and Michigan. 4After falling behind Northwestern 21-7 early in the second quarter, the Wildcats and Wolverines had a combined 25 drives. Nebraska allowed just one touchdown and three field goals on those 25 drives. Two of the field goals occurred after a Husker turnover deep in their own territory. 4Michigan and Northwestern combined for just 318 yards on 108 plays in that stretch, an average of just 2.9 yards per play. 4Nebraska has been very tough against the pass in Big Ten play.

Meanwhile, the Nebraska defense has been among the nation s best on third downs, allowing opponents to convert just 29.4 percent of third-down attempts. That total ranks third in the Big Ten and fifth nationally. 4The Husker defense was stout on third downs against Northwestern. After allowing the Wildcats to convert their first two third-down attempts of the day, Northwestern was 0-of-12 on third downs the rest of the contest. NU came back with another excellent effort at Michigan, holding the Wolverines to just 3-of-15 on third downs.

Against Michigan, Nebraska had seven sacks for 43 yards, including three sacks by sophomore defensive end Randy Gregory. The Blackshirt defense also recorded 16 tackles for loss, the most by Nebraska since recording a schoolrecord 18 tackles for loss against Maine in The Blackshirts are among the nation s best at harrassing opposing passers. The Huskers are second in the Big Ten with 33 sacks in 11 games, an average of 3.0 per contest. That figure ranks 10th nationally. 4 Nebraska has surpassed last year s sack total of 31 sacks in 14 games. The Huskers last topped 40 sacks in 2009, when NU registered 44 sacks. 4 Nebraska has had at least three sacks in six of the past nine games, including five sacks each against South Dakota State, Purdue and Northwestern and seven sacks against Michigan. 4 Nebraska has had six games with at least eight tackles for loss, including three of the past four games. In addition to the Michigan contest, Nebraska reached double figures with 10 tackles for loss against Illinois, had nine each against UCLA, South Dakota State and Northwestern, and eight against Michigan State. The Huskers were especially opportunistic early in the season and have shown the ability to make opponents pay for turnovers. 4Nebraska has turned its 16 takeaways this season into 79 points. 4The Huskers 13 interceptions rank fifth in the Big Ten. 4Defensive end Avery Moss intercepted a pass against Northwestern and returned it 25 yards for a touchdown. The pick-six was the fourth by Nebraska this season, one shy of the school record of five in 1971 and Nebraska returned a pair of interceptions for touchdowns against Southern Miss, with Stanley Jean-Baptiste and Ciante Evans each finding the end zone. That marked the first two-td game for the Blackshirts since The two interception returns for scores against Southern Miss were part of a four-int day for the defense. The four interceptions were the most since a 2010 victory over Idaho when the Huskers had five picks. 4Nebraska s four takeaways against Southern Miss marked the first time NU has had four takeaways since forcing six turnovers against Idaho in that 2010 game, a span of 41 games. 4Jean-Baptiste had an interception in each of Nebraska s four games this season. His streak of four straight games with an interception tied the NU school record. He was the first player to accomplish that feat since All-American safety Josh Bullocks intercepted a pass in four straight games in Jean-Baptiste has 134 interception return yards, the most by a Husker since Daniel Bullocks had a school-record 187 interception return yards in With four interceptions, Jean-Baptiste is second in the Big Ten and tied for 35th nationally in interceptions. Evans is also tied for second in the conference with four interceptions, including a third-quarter pick at Penn State. Last season, Daimion Stafford led Nebraska with four interceptions, while the team leader in 2011 had just two picks. 4Evans had two interceptions against the Golden Eagles. The last time a Husker had picked off two or more opponent passes occurred in 2009 when safety Matt O Hanlon had three interceptions against Oklahoma. 4Nebraska was even or positive in turnover margin in each of the first five games of the season. The Huskers are 2-0 when forcing three or more turnovers, and 17-2 under Pelini when the defense has at least three takeaways. Gregory a Dominant Force on Husker Defensive Front Sophomore defensive end Randy Gregory showed early in the season he was one of the Big Ten s top newcomers. In recent weeks, Gregory has reached another level, proving to be one of the conference s top defenders, and is a leading contender for All-Big Ten honors this season. Gregory was one of 18 defensive ends who were named to the mid-season watch list for the Hendricks Award, given to the nation s top defensive end. Gregory was a dominant force at Michigan, keying a Blackshirt defense that recorded seven sacks and limited Michigan to -21 rushing yards. Gregory had three sacks for 14 yards in losses, including a key sack on the Wolverines final offensive possession. He added a 10-yard tackle for loss in the second quarter. Gregory s play was recognized as he was the co-big Ten Defensive Player of the Week. The effort at Michigan highlighted a dominant season for Gregory. The 6-6, 255-pound Gregory leads the Big Ten with 8.5 sacks for 60 yards in losses. Gregory s 0.8 sacks per game rank 20th nationally. Gregory has been at his best in conference play with eight of his sacks coming in Big Ten action. Gregory s eight sacks in conference play are three more than any other Big Ten defender. In addition to his three sacks at Michigan, Gregory had 2.5 sacks Game 12 vs. Iowa Nebraska Football

He added an interception return for a touchdown against South Dakota State and has also recovered a fumble and forced a fumble. 4Gregory s 8.5 sacks are the most ever for a Nebraska newcomer, while his 8.0 sacks are just two shy of the most ever by a Nebraska player in a conference season. Jim Skow had 10.0 sacks in seven Big Eight games in Evans Continues to Make Mark on Nebraska Defense Nebraska senior defensive back Ciante Evans has been a key player in the Nebraska defense each of the past three seasons. A standout cornerback, Evans regularly mans the important nickel spot in the Huskers defensive scheme, and Evans excels in the role. Evans has outstanding cover skills, shown by his four interceptions and five pass breakups. However, Evans also has an uncanny knack for finding his way into the opposing backfield to make plays. 4Evans has 11 tackles for loss this season, with all of those coming in Big Ten action. His TFL total in conference play is fourth in the Big Ten, and easily the most by a conference defensive back. 4The 11 TFL are the most ever by an NU defensive back, bettering the previous record of nine by cornerback Al Larson in Evans had five tackles for loss against Northwestern, the most ever by a Nebraska defensive back. The previous position record was three tackles for loss in a game. 4Evans has three sacks this season, tying the season position record for defensive backs. Joe Walker (1999) and Toby Wright (1992) also had three sacks in a season from the defensive back position. Martinez Unlikely to Return in Regular Season Nebraska senior quarterback Taylor Martinez has missed seven of the past eight games with several injuries, and is unlikely to return in Martinez started 32 straight games at quarterback before being sidelined against South Dakota State. He returned to play at Minnesota on Oct. 26, but has not played in Nebraska s past three games. Martinez became the first quarterback in school history to start four consecutive season openers against Wyoming. Only Tommie Frazier ( ) and Steve Taylor ( ) had previously started three season openers at quarterback in NU school history. Martinez was one of just seven quarterbacks in the FBS ranks who started their fourth consecutive season opener in 2013, and he is the only player in the group to post a 4-0 record in those games. Martinez has made 43 career starts, the most ever for an NU quarterback. Martinez Holds Prominent Place in Nebraska Record Book Regardless of whether he returns to action in 2013, Martinez has made a huge mark in the Nebraska school record book with 37 school records. He also ranks statistically ranking among the top run-pass quarterbacks in college football history. The Corona, Calif., native has put up remarkable numbers, including: 4 Martinez holds NU s career total offense record with 10,233 yards. He set the Nebraska record midway through the 2012 season, surpassing the previous record of 7,915 yards by 2001 Heisman Trophy winner Eric Crouch. 4Martinez established a season total offense record in 2012, with 3,890 yards of total offense. He broke the previous record of 3,826 yards by Joe Ganz in Martinez has the top total offense seasons in school history for a freshman, sophomore and junior. 4 Martinez threw for 2,871 yards in 2012, the third-best single-season total in Nebraska history. He has 7,258 career passing yards at Nebraska. The previous career record of 5,850 yards was set by Zac Taylor in Martinez had 23 passing touchdowns in 2012, and has thrown for 10 touchdowns in Martinez has a schoolrecord 56 TD passes in his career, bettering Zac Taylor s career total of 45 passing touchdowns. Martinez opened the 2013 season with three passing touchdowns in each of the first three games and has six career games with three or more touchdown passes. 4Martinez accounted for a school-record 33 touchdowns in 2012 (23 pass, 10 rush), bettering the previous record of 32 by Gerry Gdowski in With 10 touchdowns in 2013, Martinez has accounted for 87 touchdowns in his career, three shy of the school record of 90 by Crouch. 4 With 1,019 rushing yards in 2012, Martinez posted the fourth 1,000-yard rushing season in school history by a NU quarterback. Martinez has 2,975 career rushing yards, second among quarterbacks in school history, trailing only Crouch s 3,434 yards. Martinez is eighth on the NU career rushing list, just 25 yards shy of reaching 3,000 career rushing yards. He would become just the 16th quarterback in FBS history and third in Big Ten history to rush for 3,000 career yards if he were to hit that milestone. Martinez Stats Stack up Well on NCAA All-Time Charts Martinez s statistics compare favorably with a number of quarterbacks on the national level. 4 Before being hit with injuries, Martinez was on pace to push for 9,000 career passing yards and 3,000 rushing yards. He would have joined Colin Kaepernick as the only players in FBS history to reach the 9,000/3,000 career mark. 4 Martinez is one of only four players to reach 6,000 passing yards and 2,500 rushing yards before the end of their junior season. He joined Kaepernick, Vince Young (Texas) and Brad Smith (Missouri) in that club. He is 25 rushing yards from becoming the fifth player in FBS history with 7,000 career passing yards and 3,000 career rushing yards. He would join Kaepernick, Smith, Josh Cribbs (Akron) and Antwaan Randle El (Indiana) in that category. 4Martinez s 10,233 yards of total offense are eighth among active players. Earlier this season, Martinez became just the ninth player in Big Ten history with 10,000 career total offense yards. Game 12 vs. Iowa Nebraska Football

Leading the Huskers as captains are senior quarterback Taylor Martinez, senior wide receiver Quincy Enunwa, senior offensive guard Spencer Long and senior cornerback Ciante Evans. In each of the previous five seasons under Pelini, Nebraska has named captains on a game-by-game basis throughout the regular season, before electing season captains at the end of the year. The four 2013 captains bring a great deal of experience to the Huskers. As a group, the four players have played in a total of 171 games with a combined 139 starts. Player GP Starts Quincy Enunwa Ciante Evans Taylor Martinez Spencer Long Totals Martinez also holds the distinction of being one of just seven multi-year captains in school history. Four of those have come under Bo Pelini, including Martinez, Rex Burkhead, Brett Maher and Alex Henery. Prior to Henery in 2009 and 2010, the most recent two-time captain was Ed Weir in , while the first two-time captains were James H. Johnson in and John Westover in Husker Youth Making a Big Impact in 2013 Nebraska s freshmen have been a big part of the story for Nebraska in True freshmen and redshirt freshmen have played a vital role for the Huskers. The latest evidence was the travel roster for the Penn State game which featured 26 freshmen. The Huskers have played seven true freshmen this fall, the most in Bo Pelini s six seasons as head coach. The group includes tight end Cethan Carter, linebackers Josh Banderas and Nathan Gerry, I-back Terrell Newby, defensive tackles Kevin Maurice and Maliek Collins and long snapper Gabriel Miller. 4A total of 24 true or redshirt freshmen played against South Dakota State, including five starters. The SDSU game is believed to be the first time in modern school history that NU has started five freshmen in the same game. 4Against Southern Miss, UCLA and South Dakota State, Banderas and Gerry were both on the field as starters on defense. They marked the first true freshmen defenders to start since Ciante Evans started at Iowa State in It also marked the first time Nebraska started two true freshmen in a game since NU had two freshmen starters against Kansas State in Nebraska also started two redshirt freshmen on defense against both Illinois (Afalava, M. Rose), Purdue (Moss, LeRoy Alexander) and Michigan (M. Rose, Moss). Those games marked the first time Nebraska had started two true freshmen on defense since Erwin Swiney and Joe Walker started against Texas Tech in Nebraska had three true freshmen in the starting lineup against UCLA and South Dakota State as Carter joined Gerry and Banderas in the starting lineup. 4Nebraska has a significant youth movement in the front seven of its defense.

47 2013 NEBRASKA FOOTBALL Game 1 No. 18 Nebraska 37, Wyoming 34 SCORE BY QUARTERS FINAL Wyoming Nebraska Game 2 No. 22 Nebraska 56, Southern Miss 13 SCORE BY QUARTERS FINAL Southern Miss Nebraska Lincoln (Aug. 31) --- No. 18 Nebraska rushed for 375 yards and amassed 530 total yards on its way to a victory over Wyoming for the Huskers 28th consecutive season-opening win. Playing in front of a school-record 91,185 fans at Memorial Stadium, Nebraska rolled up 375 yards on 63 rushes, including 114 yards from junior I-back Ameer Abdullah and 105 yards and a pair of touchdowns for sophomore I-back Imani Cross. Senior quarterback Taylor Martinez also completed 17-of-22 passes for 155 yards and three touchdowns, including a pair of scoring strikes to Quincy Enunwa. Despite the impressive offensive totals for the Huskers, a pair of late NU turnovers allowed the visiting Cowboys to put a scare into the Big Red. NU led with the ball on the Wyoming 25 with just under seven minutes left in the game, but a Martinez pass was intercepted by Wyoming s Blair Burns and returned to the Wyoming 48. It took quarterback Brett Smith and the Cowboys just two plays and 24 seconds to find paydirt, as Smith hit receiver Jalen Claiborne to trim NU s lead to 37-27, after Wyoming s two-point conversion attempt was smothered by Husker defensive back Josh Mitchell. After another turnover, Smith struck quickly again, hitting receiver Robert Herron on a 47-yard touchdown pass just 29 seconds later to pull Wyoming within On NU s ensuing drive, Wyoming forced a three-and-out by the Huskers, who got a clutch 31-yard punt from Sam Foltz that was caught by NU s Kenny Bell at the Wyoming 6. Smith got a chance at the upset, but the Husker defense held Wyoming without a shot at the end zone to escape with the victory. Smith completed 29-of-43 passes for 383 yards with four touchdowns in a losing effort, although Ciante Evans and Stanley Jean-Baptiste each pulled down interceptions for the Huskers. Overall, the two teams combined for 1,132 yards of total offense, as Wyoming finished with 602 total yards, including 219 yards on the ground. The Cowboys total yards marked the eighth-highest mark against the Big Red in school history.

Lincoln (Sept. 7) --- No. 22 Nebraska s Blackshirt defense hauled in four interceptions, including two for scores, while Taylor Martinez threw three touchdown passes in a win over Southern Miss. Nebraska s opportunistic defense was the story, as Stanley Jean-Baptiste and Ciante Evans both returned passes for TDs, as the Huskers jumped out to a 21-3 first-quarter lead and never looked back. Nebraska turned four USM turnovers into 21 points in picking up its 10th straight home victory. Nebraska finished the night with 479 total yards, including 285 rushing and 194 passing. I-back Ameer Abdullah led NU s ground game with 17 carries for 114 yards and touchdown runs of 3 and 37 yards. Martinez went 15-for-23 through the air for 170 yards and three scores in just over two and a half quarters of action. While the offense enjoyed substituting freely and spreading the ball around with the lopsided win, the Blackshirts celebrated a strong effort. Nebraska s defense intercepted four passes, including a pair by senior Ciante Evans. Jean-Baptiste set the tone early, returning Allan Bridgford s pass 43 yards for a score on USM s first offensive series. The Blackshirts held Southern Miss to 284 total yards, including 62 on the ground. In fact, USM had just four rushing yards until midway through the fourth quarter.
