For proof of this, one needs to look no further than the NCAA statistical rankings that show seven Big 12 quarterbacks ranked among the top 15 nationally in passing efficiency. While senior quarterback Joe Ganz is often overlooked among this group, his numbers stack up favorably with his more heralded peers. Ganz has made six career conference starts, and he has passed for more yards than the opposing quarterback each time. Ganz fared well individually in head-to-head matchups with Heisman Trophy contenders Chase Daniel of Missouri and Graham Harrell of Texas Tech. Ganz threw for 37 more yards than Daniel, and out-yarded Harrell by 65 passing yards.

Kickoff in front of the 295th consecutive sellout at Memorial Stadium is set for 11:37 a.m. with Versus televising the game nationally. The Huskers are coming off a 35-7 win at Iowa State last Saturday, allowing the Huskers to end a three-game losing streak and improve to 4-3 overall on the season. Nebraska will look to even its Big 12 record at 2-2 against the Bears. Baylor is 3-4 on the season and 1-2 in Big 12 action, following a 34-6 loss at No. 8 Oklahoma State last weekend. The Series Nebraska and Baylor meet for the first time since 2005 and Saturday s meeting is just the 11th all-time matchup between the schools. The Huskers hold a 9-1 edge in the series, including wins in each of the last eight meetings. Baylor s lone victory in the series was a 26-7 win in Lincoln in 1956. Nebraska holds a 6-1 edge over the Bears at Memorial Stadium, including four shutout victories. The Coaches Nebraska: Bo Pelini (Ohio State, 90) is in his first season with the Huskers. Pelini owns a 5-3 career record. In addition to four 2008 wins, Pelini led Nebraska to a victory as interim head coach in the 2003 Alamo Bowl. Pelini has served as defensive coordinator at Nebraska, Oklahoma and most recently LSU over the past five seasons. Previously, he had stints as an NFL assistant with San Francisco, New England and Green Bay. Baylor: Art Briles (Texas Tech, 79) is in his first season as Baylor s head coach and his sixth season overall as a head coach. Briles is 3-4 with the Bears and 37-32 overall as a collegiate head coach. Prior to taking over at Baylor he was the head coach at Houston for five seasons and led the Cougars to four bowl games. Briles was an assistant at Texas Tech for three seasons (2000-02), and previously was a highly successful prep coach in the Lone Star State. Nebraska Football Nebraska is 812-336-40 all-time, one of just five schools with 800 all-time victories. Nebraska has won five national championships (1970, 1971, 1994, 1995, 1997). The Cornhuskers have won 43 conference championships. Nebraska s 44 all-time bowl appearances rank fifth nationally. Since 1970, Nebraska has 378 wins, 25 more than any other school in the country.

Nebraska s previous road victory was a 20-17 win at Wake Forest last season. NU s last win on the road in league play was a 28-27 victory at Texas A&M in 2006. * The 28-point victory was Nebraska s second-largest in a conference game in the last four seasons. It was also NU s largest margin of victory in a league road game since a 51-7 win at Kansas in 2001. * The victory marked Nebraska s fourth straight win over Iowa State, marking the eighth NU winning streak of four games or more in the all-time series between the schools. * Senior wide receiver Nate Swift caught eight passes for 112 yards and a touchdown, including three passes for 57 yards, while adding a seven-yard rush on a reverse on NU s first scoring drive. In the first quarter alone, Swift had five receptions for 67 yards and a touchdown. * Swift became just the second player in Nebraska history to surpass 2,000 career receiving yards. His 136 career receptions have covered 2,021 yards, second only to Johnny Rodgers 2,479 career receiving yards. Swift moved into a tie for second place with former teammate Terrence Nunn on the career receptions chart, seven behind Rodgers record total of 143. * Swift s 19-yard touchdown reception was his team-leading fourth TD catch of the season and his 16th career touchdown reception. His 16 career touchdown catches are tied with Maurice Purify for second on the NU career list, trailing Rodgers school-record 25 touchdown receptions. * Senior quarterback Joe Ganz completed 27-of-37 passes for 328 yards. The game marked his second straight with more than 325 yards passing, as he had a season-high 349 yards at Texas Tech. It also marked his third 300-yard passing game of the season (also Western Michigan, TTU) and the sixth 300-yard game of his career. * Ganz completed 21-of-26 passes for 283 yards and a touchdown before halftime. The 283 yards passing in the first half tied his career best for one half. He also threw for 283 yards in the second half against Kansas State last season. The school record for most passing yards in a half is 322 by Sam Keller in the second half of last year s 41-40 win over Ball State. * Nebraska completed passes to nine receivers in the game. The Huskers have had at least seven different receivers catch a pass in all seven games this season. * Nebraska s 92-yard drive to open the scoring was its longest of the 2008 season. * Nebraska passed for at least 200 yards for the 12th straight game, including seven 300-yard games in that stretch. The Husker offense has gained 400 total yards or more in nine of the past 12 games, and the ISU game marked the second time this season NU topped 500 yards of total offense in a contest (also NMSU). Nebraska surpassed 30 points for the ninth time in its past 10 games. * Nebraska forced a third-quarter turnover against the Cyclones, marking the Huskers first takeaway in 15 quarters, dating back to the fourth quarter of the New Mexico State game. NU added a second forced fumble in the fourth quarter, tying its season high of two takeaways. * Nebraska limited Iowa State to zero points, two first downs and 45 yards in the first half. The seven points allowed overall to Iowa State are the fewest by Nebraska against a conference opponent since a 21-3 victory at Kansas State in 2006. * Iowa State s 218 total yards marked the lowest total by an NU opponent in 19 games dating back to last year s opener vs. Nevada (185). It also marked the first time NU had held an opponent to less than 300 total yards since that game. * Nebraska forced Iowa State s offense to three-and-out six times in the game, a season-high for the NU defense.

Pelini joined the Huskers after a highly successful five-year run as a collegiate defensive coordinator, including orchestrating Nebraska s defensive efforts in 2003. Pelini owns a 5-3 career record after also serving as the interim head coach in the 2003 Alamo Bowl win over 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 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 1990. Pelini Brings Track Record of Defensive Success to NU While the 2008 season marks Bo Pelini s first season as a head coach, he has an impressive track record as a defensive coordinator on the collegiate level. Pelini has been a part of five straight defenses that have ranked among the nation s best units, including his 2003 defense at Nebraska. Pelini led the 2003 Blackshirts to impressive numbers. Nebraska nabbed a school-record 47 takeaways in 2003, including a Big 12- record 32 interceptions. NU finished the season second in scoring defense, first in pass efficiency defense and 11th in total defense. The success under Pelini has over the past four years, National Rankings of Pelini-led Defenses Total Rush Pass Eff. Pass Yds.

Pelini Looks to Build on Success of First-Year Coaches Bo Pelini is the 28th head coach in the 119 seasons of Nebraska football and is hoping to find the first-year success of several of his predecessors. Three of the previous four Nebraska head coaches (since 1962) began their Husker coaching careers with nine-win seasons. Bob Devaney posted a 9-2 record and led NU to the Gotham Bowl in 1962. That success followed six straight losing seasons by Nebraska. Tom Osborne guided the Huskers to a 9-2-1 record and a trip to the Cotton Bowl in 1973, while Frank Solich s first squad (1998) posted a 9-4 record and played in the Holiday Bowl. Pelini s 4-0 start matched Tom Osborne for the fifth-best start to a Nebraska coaching career. Cornhusker Staff Has Familiarity with Nebraska, Big 12 The Nebraska coaching staff has many faces that are familiar to Nebraska fans and observers of the Big 12 Conference. Two assistant coaches returned from Nebraska s 2007 coaching staff in offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach Shawn Watson and wide receivers coach Ted Gilmore. However, they are far from the only coaches who have familiarity with Nebraska and the Big 12 Conference. Led by head coach Bo Pelini, every member of the 2008 Nebraska coaching staff has previous experience working in the Big 12. Pelini is one of eight full-time staff members who will enter the season with previous experience on the Nebraska sideline. Each member of Nebraska s offensive coaching staff has prior experience coaching in the Big 12 s North Division. Husker Coaching Staff Carl Pelini Def. Coord./DL 1st Season Field Shawn Watson Off.

Three Things To Know About Saturday s Game 1. 2. 3. Nebraska snapped a three-game slide last week with a victory over the Iowa State in Ames, avoiding NU s first 0-3 start in league play since 1945. This weekend, the Huskers will be again trying to snap a home streak. Nebraska has dropped its last two contests in Memorial Stadium (vs. Virginia Tech and Missouri) and will be trying to avoid three consecutive home losses for the first time since 1968. Special teams play could become a factor for both teams on Saturday. Nebraska has struggled this season in punting and enters the week ranked 118th nationally in net punting. The lack of kicking game may not be as much of a detriment against Baylor, which ranks 118th in the country in punt returns. Both teams are in the top 25 nationally in the kickoff return game. Baylor will be looking for its first road victory of the season as it has lost games at Oklahoma State and Connecticut this year. Overall, the Bears have lost six straight contests away from Waco, Texas. Baylor has dropped eight straight Big 12 road games dating to the 2006 season when BU defeated Colorado, 34-31, in three overtimes in Boulder. Breaking Down the Bears Offense The Bear offense has become more effective under first-year coach Art Briles as Baylor is averaging more than 28 points and 375 yards of total offense per game this season. Although it has been rejuvenated, BU s offense is still erratic as Baylor has posted at least 38 points in each of its three wins but has topped 17 points just once in the four losses. True freshman quarterback Robert Griffin has received much of the acclaim. Griffin graduated high school a semester early and went through spring football this year before joining the nationally renowned Baylor track squad. He won a Big 12 title and earned All-America honors by placing third at the 2008 Baylor Schedule/Results Date Opponent Result/Time 8/28 Wake Forest L, 41-13 9/6 Northwestern State W, 51-6 9/12 Washington State W, 45-17 9/19 at Connecticut L, 31-28 10/4 Oklahoma L, 49-17 10/11 Iowa State W, 38-10 10/18 at Oklahoma State L, 34-6 10/25 at Nebraska 11:37 a.m. 11/1 Missouri TBA 11/8 at Texas TBA 11/15 Texas A&M TBA 11/29 at Texas Tech TBA outdoor championships in the 400m hurdles. Griffin ran the third-fastest time in the event in school history. Griffin has used that speed to his team s benefit as he is second on the squad with 433 rushing yards, trailing team leader Jay Finley by just five yards. Griffin, who also leads the team with eight rushing touchdowns, has completed 94 passes (in 155 attempts) without an interception, an NCAA freshman record to open a career. He has 1,271 passing yards and nine touchdowns. Another freshman, Kendall Wright leads the receiving corps with 33 catches for 413 yards and three touchdowns. Only four players have at least 10 catches, as BU averages 192.6 passing yards per game. Defense By allowing 366 yards per game, including more than 146 yards per game on the ground, the Bears rank 73rd nationally this week in total defense. Joe Pawelek has been a disruptive force from that side of the ball as he leads the team and ranks third nationally with 11.7 tackles per game. He owns the team lead with 82 tackles and five quarterback hurries to go with five tackles for loss and one fumble recovery. He also paces the team with two interceptions and is third on the squad with four pass breakups. Special Teams Baylor s special teams have been effective in spots this season, as the Bears rank seventh nationally in net punting and 15th in kickoff returns. Punter Derek Epperson has averaged an impressive 43.3 yards on 32 punts, placing nine inside the opponent s 20 yard line. In the return game, Mikail Baker has averaged 28.8 yards on 12 kickoff returns to rank 23rd nationally. While the kickoff return game has been solid, BU has struggled on punt returns, ranking 118th nationally at just 1.7 yards per return. 2008 Nebraska-Baylor Team Statistical Comparison Nebraska (4-3) / Baylor (3-4) Category NU / BU Big 12 / Big 12 Natl. / Natl.

800-Win Club Nebraska is one of five programs with 800 all-time victories, joining Michigan, Notre Dame, Texas and Ohio State. NU reached the historic milestone in 2006 and now has 812 all-time victories. 1. Michigan 871 2. Notre Dame 828 3. Texas 827 4. Nebraska 812 5. Ohio State 805 Nebraska is in its 119th season of college football in 2008, and owns an 812-336-40 all-time record in 1,188 games (.700). 4Since the first season of Nebraska football in 1890, Husker teams have won 11 or more games 12 times, including seven times since 1993. 4Nebraska has won 12 or more games seven times, including three seasons with 13 wins (1971, 1994, 1997). 4Nebraska (702), Michigan (705), Alabama (728) and Notre Dame (736) were the only programs to win 700 games in the 1900s. Nation s Best Since 70 Nebraska easily ranks as the nation s winningest program since the start of the 1970s, when Bob Devaney guided NU to back-to-back national titles in 1970 and 1971. During the past four decades, the Huskers have compiled a 378-95-5 record, for a.796 winning percentage in 478 games. NU s 378 wins in that time period are 25 more than Michigan which has the second-most wins since 1970. 1. Nebraska 378 2. Michigan 353 3. Ohio State 352 4. Oklahoma 350 5.

Nebraska s 2008 schedule includes six teams who played in a bowl game last season, and four teams that were ranked in the final AP top 10 last season. Already this season, Nebraska faced consecutive games against top 10 opponents No. 4 Missouri and seventh-ranked Texas Tech. Last year, Nebraska faced 10 bowl teams, including four teams that finished in the top 10, and this year s schedule is shaping up to be equally difficult. * Six of Nebraska s 12 regular-season contests are against teams that participated in a bowl game following the 2007 campaign. Among the group are three teams that played in the Bowl Championship Series, including Virginia Tech (Orange), Oklahoma (Fiesta) and Kansas (Orange). Missouri (Cotton), Texas Tech (Gator) and Colorado (Independence) also played in bowl games following last season. * Four of Nebraska s 2008 opponents finished in the top 10 in the national polls last fall, including Missouri (4-AP, 5 Coaches), Kansas (7), Oklahoma (8) and Virginia Tech (9). * Five Nebraska opponents were ranked in the top 17 in the preseason Associated Press Poll. * NU is one of just four teams in the country scheduled to play three 2007 BCS teams this fall, and one of two teams that will face four foes that were ranked in the final top 10. * In this week s AP Poll, Nebraska has two remaining games against ranked teams, including No. 4 Oklahoma and No. 19 Kansas. NU has already faced No. 8 Texas Tech, No. 16 Missouri and previously ranked Virginia Tech. * Nebraska s six opponents to date in 2008 have a combined record of 33-16 with four of those losses against the Huskers. * Last week, CBSSports.com ranked Nebraska s schedule through six games as the nation s toughest. Games Against 2007 Top 10 Teams 4 Nebraska, Colorado 3 Auburn, Baylor, Kansas, Kansas State, Oklahoma State, Texas, Texas Tech Games Against 2007 BCS Teams 3 Nebraska, Auburn, Cincinnati, Florida Nebraska Looks to Continue Domination of Baylor in Lincoln Nebraska owns a 9-1 all-time edge in the series against Baylor, including a 6-1 advantage in games played at Memorial Stadium. A closer inspection of the series indicates Nebraska has been dominant against the Bears in Lincoln. In six Nebraska victories over Baylor in Lincoln, Nebraska has outscored the Bears by a cumulative score of 231-37, or an average of 38.5-6.2. Nebraska has posted four shutouts against Baylor in Lincoln, including three straight meetings in 1990, 1996 and 2000. All six of Nebraska s victories over Baylor in Lincoln have been by at least 13 points, while all 10 of the series meetings have been decided by at least nine points. Husker Offense Looking to Continue Recent Surge Nebraska has been impressive on offense throughout the 2008 campaign, but has hit its stride over the past two games. Nebraska ranks 12th nationally in passing offense at 291.43 yards per game and is 18th in the nation in total offense, averaging 438.9 yards. Nebraska also ranks 27th nationally in scoring offense at 33.3 points per game. The success of the offense comes on the heels of an explosive offensive campaign in 2007. NU finished last year ranked ninth nationally in total offense at 468.3 yards per game, and seventh in passing at 323.8 yards per game. The passing average was a school record, while the total offensive average was Nebraska s best in a decade. Nebraska boasts impressive numbers over the past several games dating back to last season. 4Nebraska has gained 400 total yards or more in nine of the past 12 games. 4The Huskers have passed for at least 200 yards in the past 12 games, with seven 300-yard games in that stretch. 4The Huskers are averaging 486.8 yards per game over their past 10 games, including 344.7 yards per game through the air. Nebraska is averaging 39.6 points over its past 10 games and has scored at least 30 points in nine of 10 games dating back to last season. 4Among Nebraska s offensive explosion to finish last year was a 702-yard day against Kansas State, the 10th-best output in school history and the best since 1995. Nebraska has produced two 500-yard total offense games in 2008. Page 6

Nebraska Total Offense Stats Nebraska finished the 2007 season ranked ninth nationally in total offense at 468.3 yards per game. That total was NU s best since averaging 513.7 yards per game in 1997. Last season marked the fourth time in the last 10 years NU has averaged at least 400 yards of total offense. Prior to 1998, Nebraska averaged better than 400 yards per game for 24 straight seasons. Year Total Offense 1998 384.9 1999 392.2 2000 459.9 2001 451.2 2002 373.1 2003 345.0 2004 363.2 2005 320.3 2006 414.6 2007 468.3 2008 438.9 Nebraska Scoring Offense Stats NU finished 28th nationally in scoring at 33.4 points per game, the Huskers best scoring average since 2001. Nebraska averaged 30 points or more for 24 straight years from 1978 to 2001. Year Scoring Offense 2001 37.4 2002 27.4 2003 24.8 2004 25.0 2005 24.7 2006 30.6 2007 33.4 2008 33.3 NU Back on Scoring Track Nebraska scored at least 30 points in seven straight games before posting 17 points against Missouri. That marked the longest streak of 30-plus point games since NU hit that mark in 13 straight games, including the entire 1995 season and the first game of the 1996 campaign. Nebraska has returned to the 30s with a 31-point effort at Texas Tech, and a 35-point outing at Iowa State. That gives Nebraska nine 30-point efforts in its past 10 games. Against Virginia Tech, Nebraska scored four touchdowns, ending a streak of six straight games with five or more touchdowns. That streak was the longest with at least five touchdowns since the first eight games of the 1989 season. 4The scoring production allowed Nebraska to win each of its first three games by more than three touchdowns for the first time since 1995. Huskers on Watch/Award Lists Marlon Lucky, Sr., IB Walter Camp Player of the Year Watch List Maxwell Award Watch List Doak Walker Award Watch List Joe Ganz, Sr., QB Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award Watch List Zach Potter, Sr., DE Lott Trophy Watch List (Impact Defensive Player) Hendricks Award Watch List (Best DE) Husker Offense Controlling Clock, Keeping Opponent O on Sideline The Nebraska offense put together two impressive efforts in road games at Texas Tech and Iowa State. The Huskers churned out 471 and 548 yards of total offense, respectively, in their first two road trips of the season, but most impressive has been NU s ability to control the clock. Nebraska amassed 40:12 in time of possession against Texas Tech to keep the Red Raiders highpowered offense on the sideline. NU continued to control the clock at Iowa State, with a 37:11-22:49 advantage in time of possession. Nebraska has run 158 plays in the last two weeks, while opponents have snapped the ball just 102 times. 4Nebraska s 40:12 time of possession against Texas Tech was its highest possession time since having the ball for 40:38 in the season opener against Nevada last season. It also marked Nebraska s highest possession time on the road since at least 1980, and Nebraska s largest possession advantage against a conference opponent since holding the ball for 42:50 against Colorado in 1992. Nebraska has held the ball for 40 minutes or longer just four times since 1980. 4NU has held the time of possession advantage in six consecutive halves and has had at least 16:30 in time of possession in the past five halves dating back to the second half of the Missouri game. 4Nebraska has had seven scoring drives of 4:00 or longer in the past two games, including four against Texas Tech and three at Iowa State. The Huskers had first-half scoring drives against Iowa State of 92, 85 and 71 yards that consumed 4:32, 5:25 and 5:14, respectively on the clock. 4Nebraska s average scoring drive the past two weeks (10 total) has been 10.2 plays, 73.6 yards and 5:32. 4The Huskers 15-play scoring drive that consumed 8:03 of the first half at Texas Tech marked the Huskers longest scoring drive of the season in terms of both time and plays. The Huskers last had a longer scoring drive in terms of plays against Oklahoma in 2005. The last time an NU scoring drive took longer than 8:03 was against Penn State in 2003, when the Huskers used 8:12 on a touchdown drive. 4The Texas Tech game marked the only time since 1980 Nebraska had three scoring drives in a game that each consumed at least 7:00. In fact, only once in the past 29 seasons has Nebraska had two 7:00-plus scoring drives in a game (2005 at Baylor). Scoring drive and time of possession statistics are sketchy prior to the 1980 season. 4Nebraska had not had three scoring drives of at least 10 plays in the same game since four 10-plus play drives in a 73-31 win over Kansas State last season. 4The 92-yard scoring drive in the first quarter against Iowa State was Nebraska s longest in distance since a 94-yard TD drive against Nevada in the 2007 season opener. Husker Offense Also Has Quick-Strike Ability Nebraska has also shown the ability to put points on the scoreboard quickly. NU has produced 10 touchdown drives that have lasted 2:00 or less, and nine touchdown drives of five plays or less. In the season opener against Western Michigan, Nebraska s five touchdown drives covered an average of more than 65 yards, but it took the Huskers an average of just 4.4 plays and only 1:38 to find the end zone. Against the Broncos, four of NU s five touchdown drives took less than two minutes, including each of the final three TD drives, when Nebraska found the end zone in 47, 37 and 37 seconds, respectively. Nebraska scored in four plays or less on four of its five touchdown drives, including a two-play, 74-yard scoring march on its final touchdown drive. Quarterback Joe Ganz has directed the Husker offense to nine touchdown drives under one minute in the last eight games. Overall, the senior has guided the offense to 12 touchdown drives under one minute in his 10 career starts. Charting the 2008 Husker Offense Nebraska is striving for offensive balance in 2008. A year ago, Nebraska ranked ninth nationally in total offense and seventh in passing offense and more than 69 percent of the Huskers offense was generated through the air. Through seven games in 2008, the Huskers have run the ball 50.6 percent of the time, but picked up 66.4 percent of their yardage by pass. Game Rushes Rush Yds. Passes Pass Yds.

Tech Ganz Matt Holt Wesch Iowa State Ganz Potter -- Baylor Oklahoma Kansas Kansas St. Colorado Bold indicates winner Joe the Quarterback Senior quarterback Joe Ganz has been the man directing the Husker offense over the past 10 games. Ganz started the final three games of the 2007 season and is firmly entrenched as NU s starter this fall. The Palos Heights, Ill., native has been outstanding since taking over the quarterback role. In his first 10 starts, Ganz has thrown for more than 3,000 yards while helping Nebraska average nearly 40 points per game. Among his accomplishments over his first 10 career starts, Ganz has: 4 Thrown for 3,366 yards, a total that by itself would rank as the sixth-highest career passing total in school history. The 3,366 yards are also a Nebraska quarterback record for most passing yards in a 10-game stretch, easily eclipsing the previous mark of 2,412 yards set by Zac Taylor over the final five games of the 2005 season and the first five games of the 2006 campaign. 4 Thrown for 27 touchdowns, which is one more than Zac Taylor s school-record 26 touchdown strikes in 14 games in 2006. 4 Accumulated a school-record six 300-yard passing games, three more than previous record holder Zac Taylor totaled in 26 career starts. Ganz has thrown for at least 275 yards in eight of 10 career starts. 4 Produced three of the five 400-yard passing days in school history in his three starts last season and the top two passing games in NU history 510 yards against Kansas State and 484 yards at Colorado. He also posted the top two total offense games in NU history with 528 yards against KSU and 521 vs. Colorado. Ganz owns five of the top 10 passing days in school history. 4 Directed the Husker offense to an average of 39.6 points per game. Ganz s average is the fifthbest total among all quarterbacks in school history over their first 10 starts, trailing only Scott Frost (46.8 points per game), Tommie Frazier (41.8), Turner Gill (41.2) and Steve Taylor (39.9). 4 Led NU to at least 30 points nine times. No other quarterback in Nebraska history helped his team score at least 30 points nine times in his first 10 career starts. Frost, Gill and Taylor each accomplished the feat eight times.

He has thrown for a career-high 1,967 yards this season and needs just 108 yards to move up to fourth place on the NU single-season passing chart. Ganz is also within reach of Zac Taylor s school-record season total of 3,197 yards, as Ganz is currently on pace to throw for 3,372 yards in the regular season. Ganz showed that his finish to 2007 was not a fluke in the season opener against Western Michigan and he has continued his torrid play throughout 2008. 4The 345 yards passing against the Broncos were the most ever in a Nebraska season opener and rank No. 10 on the Husker single-game passing list. Ganz had his most accurate passing day at Texas Tech, hitting 36-of-44 passes for 349 yards, the ninth-best passing day in school history. 4The 36 completions at Texas Tech tied a Nebraska school record. Ganz s previouis high in completions was 31 at Colorado last season. 4Ganz has connected on 90-of-120 passes the past three weeks (75.0 percent) and his 70.1 completion percentage in 2008 is well ahead of the NU record of 63.1 percent, set by Sam Keller last season. 4Ganz has 31 passes of 20 yards or more in 2008, and the Huskers have had at least seven receivers catch passes in all seven games. Nebraska has completed passes to 16 receivers, 4Ganz had at least four touchdown passes in each of his first four starts with 19 total in the four-game period. His 19 TD passes were the most ever by a Nebraska quarterback in a four-game stretch. 4Ganz s 31 career touchdown passes are seventh on the Nebraska career list. He is three touchdown passes from fourth on the Husker career list. Page 8

Cory Ross, 2002-05...3,559 Strong Starts Important for Huskers Nebraska started fast in both halves in its first three games of 2008 under Head Coach Bo Pelini, before Virginia Tech and Missouri turned the tables on the Huskers. Nebraska outscored opponents 35-6 in the first quarter through three games and 24-7 in the third for a combined total of 59-13 in the two quarters. Against Virginia Tech, Nebraska fell behind 9-7 after one quarter, and was outscored 10-7 in the third quarter. Missouri took a 14-7 lead after one period and put the game out of reach by holding a 21-0 third-quarter scoring edge against Nebraska. For the season, NU has a 56-36 edge in the opening quarter, but has a 52-34 deficit in the third. The Huskers struggled with slow starts last season, as NU was outscored 101-76 in the opening quarter and 131-87 in the third. While the Huskers outscored their opponents in both the second and fourth quarters a year ago, opponents outscored Nebraska by 69 points in the first and third quarters combined. Ganz Joins Rare Company Against Aggies Ganz joined a pair of Heisman Trophy winners in the Nebraska record books against New Mexico State. The senior scored touchdowns with his feet, arm and hands, achieving a feat duplicated at Nebraska by only 1972 Heisman winner Johnny Rodgers and 2001 Heisman winner Eric Crouch. In the second quarter, Ganz was on the receiving end of Marlon Lucky s third career touchdown pass and the first touchdown reception by a Nebraska quarterback in seven seasons. Later in the quarter, Ganz had a 33-yard touchdown run on an option keeper to give the Huskers a 21-0 edge. He completed football s version of the cycle with a 35-yard scoring strike to tight end Mike McNeill in the third quarter. Ironically, Lucky nearly duplicated Ganz s feat, needing only a TD reception to join Ganz in the elite company. Rodgers first accomplished the feat in the 1973 Orange Bowl against Notre Dame, while Crouch matched the trifecta against California in 1999. Ganz is also one of three players nationally to accomplish the feat in 2008, joining James Casey of Rice (vs. Tulsa) and Arkelon Hall of Memphis (vs. Louisville). Lucky Again Adding Dual-Threat Option to Husker Offense Senior I-back Marlon Lucky had one of the best seasons by a Nebraska running back in a decade in 2007. Lucky had 1,019 rushing yards, just the second 1,000-yard rushing season by a Husker I-back since 2001. He also caught a Nebraska record 75 passes for 705 yards, shattering the previous NU record by 20 catches. Lucky finished 31st nationally in all-purpose yards, averaging 145.2 yards per game. His 1,743 all-purpose yards were seventh in NU history and the most by a Husker since Ahman Green in 1997. Lucky entered 2008 as the top returning rusher in the Big 12 Conference, and continues to make a dent in the NU record books. Against New Mexico State, Lucky recorded his eighth career 100- yard rushing game with 103 yards and two touchdowns on 15 carries. On a career-long 58-yard run in the third quarter, Lucky became the 24th player in school history to surpass 2,000 career rushing yards. He moved into the top 20 with a 66-yard effort at Texas Tech, and is now 17th and within 451 yards of the top 10. The North Hollywood, Calif., native continues to be a dual threat. He has caught 17 passes for 190 yards and a touchdown in 2008, including a seven-catch, 80-yard effort at Texas Tech. Lucky has 126 career catches, and both he and teammate Nate Swift (136) are chasing Johnny Rodgers school record of 143 receptions. In the process, Lucky has pushed his career all-purpose yardage total to 3,971 yards, good for fourth in NU history, trailing only Heisman Trophy winners Johnny Rodgers and Mike Rozier, along with Ahman Green. Against Iowa State, Lucky rushed for a pair of touchdowns, including one on a direct snap. He has a a team-high six rushing touchdowns in 2008, along with one receiving touchdown. Lucky has 21 career rushing touchdowns and four touchdown receptions. He has also thrown for three career touchdowns, including a strike to Joe Ganz earlier this year against New Mexico State. Swift Enjoying Standout Senior Season; Closing in on Receiving Record Wide receiver Nate Swift has been a key component in the Husker passing game since 2005, and he and fellow senior Todd Peterson have been Joe Ganz s favorite targets in 2008. Arguably Nebraska s most experienced player, Swift has played in 45 games with 23 career starts. Through seven games, Swift is second on the team with 33 catches for a team-high 486 yards, an average of 14.7 yards per catch. He also leads the team with four touchdown receptions. Swift is coming off an impressive performance at Iowa State, when he grabbed a season-high eight catches for 112 yards, all in the first half. The 100- yard game was the sixth of Swift s career, the secondhighest total of 100-yard games in Nebraska history. He passed Irving Fryar on that list against ISU and only Johnny Rodgers 10 career 100-yard games stands in front of Swift. The Minnesota native opened his senior year with five catches for 121 yards and two touchdowns in the win over Western Michigan. It was the fourth time in his career Swift has caught a pair of touchdown passes. Swift had a career-long 61-yard touchdown catch in the second quarter against Western Michigan, bettering a 49-yard reception against Troy in 2006. He added a two-yard TD reception late in the second quarter. Nebraska Career Receptions Player, Years...Receptions 1. Johnny Rodgers, 1970-72... 143 2.

After his eight-catch effort in Ames, Swift enters the Baylor game with 136 career catches, tied with Terrence Nunn for second on the list, just seven catches behind Rodgers. Against the Cyclones, Swift also became just the second player in school history with 2,000 career receiving yards. His 2,021 yards is 458 yards behind Rodgers NU record total. Swift has caught a pass in 39 of 45 career games, and his eight-catch effort at Iowa State marked the 10th time in his career he had caught at least five passes. Swift burst onto the scene in 2005, when he caught an NU freshman record 45 passes, including seven touchdown grabs. He added 22 catches as a sophomore. Swift caught 36 passes for 520 yards and three touchdowns as a junior, helping Nebraska to a No. 7 national ranking in passing offense. With 33 Nebraska Career TD Catches Player, Years...

Nate Swift, 2005... 45 catches this season, Swift has become the first player in school history to catch 20 passes in four straight seasons. In addition to his offensive impact, Swift is Nebraska s primary punt returner. Against Virginia Tech, Swift had an 88-yard punt return for a touchdown in the fourth quarter. The return was the fourth-longest in school history and the first NU punt return for a touchdown since 2002. The effort earned Swift recognition as the Big 12 Conference Special Teams Player of the Week. Peterson Gives NU Veteran Receiving Tandem Senior Todd Peterson teams with Swift to give Nebraska one of the Big 12 s most veteran receiving tandems. Peterson leads the Huskers with 34 catches this season, bettering his previous season best for receptions. The Grand Island, Neb., native has hauled in 19 receptions over the past three weeks, including a career-high eight catches for 77 yards and a touchdown at Texas Tech. His touchdown tied the game at 31-31 in the waning moments and forced overtime. Peterson has caught at least three passes in every game this season and has topped 50 receiving yards each of the past four weeks. Peterson also recently cracked the top 10 on both the career receptions and receiving yards list. His 80 career catches are good for eighth on that list, and his 1,213 yards also rank eighth. The 6-4, 215-pound Peterson began his career on academic scholarship and as a walk-on football player, but was awarded a scholarship before the 2006 season. He is a three-time academic All- Big 12 pick and a strong contender for CoSIDA Academic All-America honors this fall. Peterson was recently named a semifinalist for a National Football Foundation/College Football Hall of Fame National Scholar-Athlete Award. Husker Defense Hoping to Find Play-Making Ability in 2008 One of the hallmarks of Bo Pelini s defenses has been play-making ability. Nebraska has flashed the ability to be a disruptive defensive unit in 2008, but is looking to be much more disruptive in the second half of the 2008 season. Nebraska took a big step forward in that area in a 35-7 win over Iowa State in Ames. 4Nebraska has 13 sacks in seven games. NU had four sacks for 28 yards against Western Michigan, with three vs. New Mexico State and two each against San Jose State, Virginia Tech and Iowa State. Nebraska has matched last season s sack total of 13. The Huskers had five games without a single sack in 2007. 4NU has eight takeaways this season. Nebraska ended a 15-quarter drought without a takeaway with a pair of fumble recoveries in the final 16 minutes at Iowa State. Nebraska forced just one turnover in the final seven games of last season, and had just 11 takeaways the entire season. With eight takeaways in the first seven games, Nebraska ranks 96th nationally in turnover margin at -0.71 per game. 4Nebraska held Western Michigan to just eight yards rushing. The rushing total was the lowest by a Nebraska opponent since Maine had -6 yards rushing in the 2005 season opener. Nebraska is allowing 129.5 rushing yards per game. 4Iowa State s 218 total yards were the fewest allowed by Nebraska in 19 games. Nebraska had not held an opponent to less than 300 total yards since Nevada in the 2007 season opener (185). The last time Nebraska allowed fewer yards in a Big 12 game was 212 in a 2005 win at Colorado. 4The seven points by Iowa State were the fewest by a conference opponent since a 21-3 win at Kansas State in 2006. 4Nebraska limited Iowa State to 113 passing yards, with a long pass play of 16 yards. The passing total was the lowest by a Husker opponent since Texas A&M threw for 100 yards in Lincoln last season. It marked the first time in 31 games since the Nicholls State in 2006 that Nebraska has not allowed a pass of 20 yards or more. Page 10

However, it is far from the only bright spot for the defensive line as a whole, which has shown a much greater ability to make plays in 2008. 4In addition to Suh s interception, defensive end Zach Potter added an interception against the Spartans. That marked the first time NU defensive linemen had two picks in a game since 1998. 4Through seven games, the Husker defensive line has produced 11.5 sacks, 32 tackles for loss, two interceptions and seven pass breakups. Last season, Nebraska s defensive front produced a total of 7.5 sacks and 36 tackles for loss. 4Potter has 25 tackles, eight tackles for loss and and team-high three sacks. He made a careerhigh tying six tackles against both Virginia Tech and Missouri. Potter also has two blocked kicks this season. 4Suh has a total of 34 tackles, including eight tackles for loss and a pair of sacks. 4Senior defensive tackle Ty Steinkuhler had a career-high eight tackles against Western Michigan and has 33 total stops. He finished the 2007 season with 13 total tackles and had 40 career tackles entering 2008. 4Sophomore defensive end Pierre Allen had a career-high 10 tackles, including three tackles for loss against San Jose State after coming on for the injured Barry Turner. Allen has 31 tackles this season, including five tackles for loss. Senior Glenn Making Transition to Linebacker Senior Cody Glenn has made a quick transition to the defensive side of the football. A running back for the Huskers for his first three seasons at Nebraska, Glenn switched to linebacker during spring ball and quickly moved to the top of the depth chart at WILL linebacker. Western Michigan s offense got a first-hand look at Glenn s defensive ability in the opener. Glenn threw WMU quarterback Tim Hiller for a two-yard loss on the Broncos first offensive snap, setting the tone for a big night for the Texas native. Glenn finished with a team-high 12 tackles, including nine solo stops and three tackles for loss. He also caused a Western Michigan fumble and broke up three passes, just one PBU shy of the NU record for breakups by a linebacker. He backed his play up with another solid effort against San Jose State, registering five tackles, a tackle for loss and two quarterback hurries. Against Virginia Tech, Glenn notched a Nebraska season-high 14 tackles and added a quarterback hurry. He was injured early in the Missouri game and did not play at Texas Tech. He came back against Iowa State with five tackles and has a team-high 40 tackles, including four tackles for loss. Glenn battled injuries during his time at running back, but tallied 579 yards and 14 touchdowns on 143 career carries, before making the switch to defense. Henery Among Nation s Most Accurate Kickers Sophomore place-kicker Alex Henery tied a Memorial Stadium record against Western Michigan, as he booted four field goals in the Huskers win. The four field goals, each of which came from 44 yards, not only tied the Memorial Stadium record, but ranked second all-time at Nebraska for most field goals in a game. It also marked just the second time in school history that a kicker has connected on four field goals of 40 yards or more (NCAA record is 5). The strong performance to open 2008 came on the heels of Henery s perfect kicking season in 2007. A year ago, he made all eight of his field-goal attempts, while connecting on 45-of-45 PATs. Henery suffered his first career missed kick against New Mexico State, but hit on all five PATs against the Aggies and added a 19-yard field goal late in the contest. 4Henery nailed a career-long 48-yard field goal against Virginia Tech, bettering his 44-yarders in the opener. He also hit three PAT attempts against the Hokies. 4Henery is now 16-of-18 on field goals in his career, including 7-of-9 in 2008. His 12 straight made field goals were the most ever to start a Nebraska career and fell just five shy of the NU school record for consecutive field goals made. 4Henery is 29-of-29 on extra points this season and a perfect 74-of-74 in his career. Special Teams Makes Statement Early in Season In addition to Alex Henery s strong kicking effort to open the season, Nebraska has had several other outstanding efforts on special teams. 4Fellow sophomore place-kicker Adi Kunalic has booted 19 of 42 kickoffs for touchbacks in 2008. The 19 touchbacks are the fourth-most of any school in the country. Last year, Kunalic delivered 28 touchbacks in 66 attempts and his 42.4 percent touchback rate was the best of any kicker in the country. In his two-year career, Kunalic has produced touchbacks on 47 of 108 kickoffs (43.5 percent). 4Entering the Baylor game, Nebraska kickers have made 110 of their last 112 kick attempts dating back to 2006. Henery s missed field goal against NMSU ended a streak of 87 consecutive made kicks by NU kickers, and he also missed a 53-yard attempt at Texas Tech. Page 11

Huskers Again Complete Non-League Play With Winning Record Nebraska finished the non-conference portion of its 2008 schedule with a 3-1 record. The 2008 season marks the 27th straight season Nebraska has had a winning non-conference record, dating back to a 2-2 record in 1981. Since 1981, the Huskers have lost either one (11 times) or zero (16 times) non-conference games. The loss to Virginia Tech was just the Huskers third non-conference home loss since 1991. NU Continues Season-Opening Success Nebraska s 47-24 victory over Western Michigan on Aug. 30 continued a long string of success in season openers. The win was the Huskers nationleading 23rd straight victory in a season opener, four better than Florida s 19 straight seasonopening victories. The Huskers have won each of their last 23 season openers by 10 or more points, and own an 88-26-5 all-time record in season openers. Nebraska has scored 40 or more points in the season opener in 16 of the past 23 seasons. In that same period, the Huskers have limited the opposition to 14 points or less 15 times.

Paul s kickoff return for a touchdown marked the second kickoff return for a score by Nebraska in its last four games (also Cortney Grixby vs. Kansas State in 2007). Before the two recent kickoff returns for touchdowns, Nebraska had not returned a kickoff for a touchdown since 1998. Paul s performance against San Jose State earned him Big 12 Special Teams Player-of-the-Week honors. Paul added a 69-yard kickoff return at Texas Tech. He ranks 23rd nationally in kickoff returns, averaging 26.9 yards per return, helping NU rank 19th nationally in the category. Paul also recovered a fourth-quarter Iowa State fumble on a punt return, setting up an NU touchdown. 4Senior Nate Swift returned a punt 88 yards for a touchdown in the fourth quarter against Virginia Tech. Swift s return was the fourth-longest in school history and the first punt return for a touchdown by Nebraska since 2002. Swift earned Big 12 Special Teams Player of the Week for his performance. Nebraska ranks 19th nationally in punt returns at 14.6 yards per attempt. 4Senior Zach Potter blocked a field goal attempt against New Mexico State, then added a blocked PAT in overtime at Texas Tech. The two blocked kicks give the 6-7 Potter four career kick blocks. Teafatiller, O'Hanlon Awarded Scholarships; Walk-Ons Making Strong Impact Nebraska Head Coach Bo Pelini recently awarded a pair of former walk-ons with scholarships. Senior tight end/fullback Hunter Teafatiller and junior safety Matt O'Hanlon were placed on scholarship before the San Jose State game. Teafatiller has been a contributor at tight end each of the past four seasons, and doubles as a fullback this season. The Kingsburg, Calif., native has 12 career receptions, including four touchdown catches. He has also been a key part of Nebraska's special teams units. O'Hanlon was a strong contributor on special teams in 2006 and 2007, playing in 24 games. This season, he has moved to the top of the depth chart at safety and has started all seven games. The Bellevue, Neb., native has 31 total tackles. Teafatiller and O Hanlon are just two of several walk-ons or former walk-ons making a strong impact for the 2008 Huskers. 4Senior wideout Todd Peterson is the Huskers leading receiver with 34 catches. 4Redshirt freshman defensive back Lance Thorell is a key member of Nebraska s dime package on defense. The Loomis, Neb., native has 20 total tackles this season, including 13 solo, and has twice been in the starting lineup. 4True freshman Matt Holt was a key performer at linebacker for the Huskers against Missouri and Texas Tech in place of the injured Cody Glenn. Holt has 13 tackles on the season, including eight stops against No. 7 Texas Tech when he earned his first career start. 4Senior Tyler Wortman is listed as Nebraska s No. 1 Buck linebacker. Wortman has played in all seven games and made six tackles on the year. 4The NU specialists group is keyed by walk-ons. Sophomore place-kicker Alex Henery is among the nation s most accurate kickers, while senior Dan Titchener has handled the punting chores for the majority of the past three seasons. Senior Jake Wesch is in his third season as NU s holder and earned his first career starts at punter against Texas Tech and Iowa State, while senior T.J. O Leary is in his third season as Nebraska s long snapper. NCAA-Record 295 Consecutive Home Sellouts Nebraska boasts an incredible NCAA-record 295 consecutive sellouts at Memorial Stadium (including Baylor game). The sellout streak dates back to Hall of Fame Coach Bob Devaney's first year in 1962 (vs. Missouri on Nov. 3). Notre Dame is second in all-time consecutive sellouts with 202, 93 fewer than Nebraska. The Huskers are 255-39 during the 294 sellouts. The mark includes a 39-24 record against ranked teams. Nebraska is 5-0 in the five milestone sellouts during that period (50th, 100th, 150th, 200th and 250th sellouts), including a 24-7 win over No. 2 Colorado on Oct. 29, 1994 (No. 200) and a 44-13 victory over Utah State on Sept. 7, 2002 (No. 250). The fan support at Memorial Stadium has led to a huge home advantage for the Huskers. NU has won at least six home games in 18 of the past 21 seasons and is 166-23 at home since 1981. Nebraska Owns Dominant Edge at Memorial Stadium Nebraska has rewarded the loyalty of its fans with incredible success at Memorial Stadium through the years. Nebraska has won at least six home games in 18 of the past 21 seasons (entering 2008). Nebraska is 123-16 at home in the last 19 seasons (since 1989), including a pair of losses against teams that went on to win the national championship Colorado in 1990 and Washington in 1991. During Nebraska s run of success at home in the past 25 years, Nebraska has had three home winning streaks of 20 or more games. Nebraska had a school-record 47-game home winning streak from 1991 to 1998, a 26-game home streak from 1998 to 2002 and a 21-game win streak in the early 1980s. Nebraska has not been shut out at home since a 12-0 loss to Kansas State in 1968 (260 games), and has posted 40 unbeaten and untied home seasons. The Huskers are 490-135-20 (.775, 645 games, 119 years) in Lincoln, and 365-112-13 (.758, 490 games, 86 years) in Memorial Stadium (since 1923). Nebraska owns 39 consecutive winning home seasons entering 2008. Page 12

The Huskers have players from 25 states on their current roster. The NU roster is one of the most geographically diverse in the country. Just three schools have more states represented on their 2008 roster than Nebraska. Team States on 2008 Roster Army 35 (plus American Samoa) Notre Dame 29 Navy 27 Nebraska 25 Air Force 25 Stanford 24 (plus two foreign countries) Northwestern 23 Former Huskers Making Mark in NFL Nebraska has a long-standing tradition of placing large numbers of players in the NFL. A total of 31 former Huskers were listed on NFL rosters as of Sept. 5. A full list of Huskers in the NFL is in the left margin. Since the start of Big 12 play in 1996, Nebraska has led all Big 12 schools with 59 players selected in the NFL Draft. No other conference school has had more than 46 players chosen in that period. This past season, three Huskers were selected in the NFL Draft, marking the 39th straight year NU has had three or more players selected in the draft. Conference Crowns Nebraska made its first appearance in the Big 12 Championship Game since 1999 with its 2006 trip to the league title game in Kansas City. The Huskers played in three of the first four Big 12 title games. Nebraska is one of three teams to capture two or more Big 12 titles in the first 11 years of the conference, joining Oklahoma with five and Texas with two. Kansas State, Texas A&M and Colorado each captured one Big 12 crown. Oklahoma leads the way with six Big 12 title game appearances, followed by Nebraska, Colorado and Texas with four each. The Huskers have won 43 football conference championships overall, including eight under Coach Bob Devaney and 13 under Coach Tom Osborne. Oklahoma has won 36 conference championships to rank second behind NU among league schools. Huskers Among Leaders in AP National Titles Notre Dame leads the nation by winning eight Associated Press national titles since 1936, with Oklahoma (7), Alabama (6), Miami (5), USC (5), Nebraska (4) and Minnesota (4) next in line. While the Huskers were awarded the national title by the coaches in 1997, NU finished second to Michigan in the AP poll. In 1970, Nebraska was awarded the AP national title, but not the coaches (Texas was first, Ohio State second and NU third) as the final poll was released before the bowl games were played. In the coaches poll (since 1950), Nebraska is tied for fourth with Miami and Texas with four titles, behind Alabama and Oklahoma with six apiece, and USC with five. Huskers Continuing to Win in the Classroom Nebraska football carries the reputation of one of the nation s most successful programs on the field. Also synonymous with Cornhusker football is success in the classroom. Nation-Leading Total of Academic All-Americans The Nebraska football program has 96 all-time CoSIDA Academic All-Americans, a nationleading total. This fall, several Huskers are strong candidates to add to that list, including senior receiver Todd Peterson, senior punter Dan Titchener and senior linebacker Tyler Wortman. The Husker athletic program as a whole also leads the nation with 263 academic All-Americans across all teams and all sports. Nebraska Leads Big 12 in Exhausted Eligibility Graduation Rates; Rank High in GSR Scores The NCAA released Graduation Success Rate scores and Exhausted Eligibility Graduation rates on Oct. 14 and Nebraska once again fared extremely well. Nebraska was the Big 12 leader in exhausted eligibility rates for the sixth consecutive year. NU boasted an impressive exhausted eligibility rate of 93 percent. Nebraska s exhausted eligibility rate has increased from 87 to 93 percent in the past eight years and improved 21 percentage points since the inception of the exhausted eligibility rate in 1991-92. Nebraska s 93 percent exhausted eligibility rate ranks one percentage point higher than Texas Tech, which ranks second in the Big 12 Conference at 92 percent. The national average for exhausted eligibility is 86 percent for Division I schools. The Husker football team s GSR score ranked near the top of the Big 12 Conference. The Huskers 78 percent rate tied with Baylor for second in the Big 12, trailing only Texas Tech. Nebraska s institutional GSR score of 76 percent ranked fourth in the Big 12. The Graduation Success Rate is an NCAA measurement that, unlike the federally mandated graduation rates, includes transfer data in the calculation. This marks the third year the NCAA has released GSR rates Page 13

Peterson Honored with George Sullivan Scholarship The first annual George Finley Sullivan Endowed Scholarship was presented to senior receiver Todd Peterson during pre-game ceremonies before the Virginia Tech game. Sully served as Nebraska s Head Athletic Trainer from 1977 to 1995 and as an Assistant Athletic Trainer and Head Physical Therapist from 1953 to 1977. The scholarship was fully endowed in Sullivan s honor in 2008 by the Touchdown Club of Nebraska, Inc., and many former Husker student-athletes graciously contributed to the fund. The scholarship will be presented annually to a Nebraska varsity football student-athlete who has demonstrated a high level of athletic and academic achievement, with a strong commitment to community, effective leadership skills, a high degree of integrity, and commitment to excellence in all endeavors. Preference is given to student-athletes who intend to pursue a career in a health-related field. Peterson has been one of the top receiving targets for the Nebraska offense over the past three seasons. Off the field, Peterson is a model student-athlete, carrying a 3.763 grade-point average in nutrition, exercise and health science. He is a three-time first-team academic All-Big 12 selection and was honored eight times with a spot on the Big 12 Commissioner s Academic Honor Roll. A two-time selection to the Brook Berringer Citizenship Team, he has participated in extensive community service. He is also a semifinalist for the Draddy Award, regarded as the academic Heisman. Husker Seniors on Track for Degrees Senior offensive guard Mike Huff picked up his undergraduate degree in communication studies this past May and is playing the 2008 season as a graduate student. Senior guard Andy Christensen graduated in August and is also in graduate school. An additional 10 members of the 2008 senior class are expected to earn their degrees following the fall semester and 23 of the 25 members of Nebraska s senior class are expected to have earned their degrees by next May. Academic All-Big 12 Selections Fifteen Nebraska players were named to the 2007 academic All-Big 12 football team, including 12 first-team selections and three second-team honorees. Nebraska s 15 academic All-Big 12 selections were the third-most among conference schools and NU s 12 first-team selections were the secondhighest total in the league. The Nebraska honorees were led by junior linebacker Tyler Wortman who posted a perfect 4.0 grade-point average during the previous year. Among the 151 student-athletes honored by the Big 12, Wortman, a mechanical engineering major, was one of seven players recognized for carrying a perfect grade-point average. Also notable among Nebraska s first-team selections was tight end J.B. Phillips, who was a firstteam selection for the fourth consecutive year. Phillips graduated with his degree in marketing in December of 2006, and completed his master s degree in May of 2008. Among returning Huskers, Peterson is a three-time first-team selection, while Titchener, defensive end Zach Potter and safety Matt O Hanlon have each been honored twice. Other returning Huskers named to the first team included Wortman, receiver Wes Cammack, and offensive lineman Lydon Murtha. Huskers Boast Impressive Total on Big 12 Commissioner s Honor Roll The Nebraska football program had 42 players named to the Big 12 Commissioner s Spring Academic Honor Roll. The honor roll recognizes players who earned a 3.0 grade-point average or better in the previous semester. Husker freshmen Thomas Grove, Jay Martin and Patrick Witt each posted a perfect 4.0 GPA during the spring semester. In the fall semester, 39 Huskers were named to the honor roll. Husker seniors Peterson, Titchener and Wortman have each been named to the Big 12 Commissioner s Honor Roll all eight semesters. Wortman Honored with Brook Berringer Scholarship Nebraska senior linebacker Tyler Wortman was presented the Brook Berringer Memorial Endowed Scholarship during pre-game ceremonies before the San Jose State game. The scholarship was endowed in the memory of former Nebraska quarterback Brook Berringer who died in a plane crash on April 18, 1996. Criteria for the Brook Berringer Scholarship includes the following: Must be a football studentathlete; must be involved in community service along with high ideals, excellent character and integrity. A native of Grand Island, Wortman fits the criteria of the Berringer Scholarship. He has worked his way up the depth chart to his current starting BUCK linebacker position. Off the field, Wortman excels in the classroom and in the community. He carries a 3.955 cumulative grade-point average in mechanical engineering and was a first-team academic All-Big 12 selection in 2007. He is on track to earn his degree in May of 2009. He was also named to the Brook Berringer Citizenship Team this past spring for his outreach work. Wortman has volunteered at Elliott Elementary School, as well as being a part of Nebraska's regular team hospital visits. Page 14

Game 1 Nebraska 47, Western Michigan 24 SCORE BY QUARTERS 1 2 3 4 FINAL Western Michigan 0 10 7 7 24 Nebraska 14 20 10 3 47 Lincoln (Aug. 30) --- Nebraska won its 23rd consecutive season-opening victory, giving Coach Bo Pelini a victory in his debut as NU s head coach. Quarterback Joe Ganz led a highoctane Nebraska offense throughout the night, producing his fourth consecutive 300-plus yard passing game in his fourth consecutive career start. Along with way, he became the first NU quarterback to throw for 300 or more yards four times in his career. Senior wide receiver Nate Swift was the biggest beneficiary, hauling in five passes for 121 yards and a pair of touchdowns, including a career-long 61-yard TD catch. Cody Glenn, who was making his first career appearance on defense, helped the Huskers hold the Broncos to just eight yards rushing on 25 carries. It was a solid opening performance although Western Michigan finished with 350 yards on 49 attempts through the air. Nebraska s defense recorded eight tackles for loss, including four sacks, while forcing a pair of turnovers.

San Jose State s inspired defensive play kept their offense within striking distance into the fourth quarter, when Jared Strubeck kicked a 27-yard field goal with 12:17 left to pull within 14-12 of the Huskers. Just seconds later, NU sophomore Niles Paul electrified the 84,145 fans that packed Memorial Stadium, exploding for an 85-yard kickoff return for a touchdown to put Nebraska on top 21-12. The spectacular special teams sprint inspired the Blackshirt defense on the next SJSU possession. The Huskers forced a sack and two misfires that led to a short SJSU punt. Five plays later, Roy Helu Jr. put the Spartans away with a 14-yard touchdown run to give NU a 28-12 lead with 9:05 left in the game.

He became the 24th running back in Nebraska history to cross the 2,000-yard mark in his career, as he reached the milestone on a career-long 58-yard run in the second half. Lucky finished with 103 yards on the ground and two TDs as the Huskers rolled for a season-high 330 rushing yards. Overall, NU amassed 553 yards of total offense.
