Joe Ganz dropped bombs on Kansas State this Saturday to get the Cornhusker’s their 7th win of the season. He threw for 270 yards and 2 TDs. He even ran for 95 yards and two more touchdowns on 11 carries. The kid is unstoppable sometimes.

Nebraska put up huge points in this game. Their total of 56 was spiked by 21 point second and fourth quarters. They were firing on all cylinders offensively with a solid running and passing attack. This was a very nice win as the team comes closer to the end of the year.

Next week’s matchup is at home against under .500 Colorado.

With Nebraska’s 45 to 35 win over Kansas this weekend the Huskers are officially eligible for a bowl game this year. With a 6-4 overall record, even their .500 record in-conference is going to be good enough to get them into a bowl game.

Ganz threw for over 300 yards against Kansas and Helu Jr. had over 100 yards on the ground as Nebraska continues to put forward a balanced offensive attack this year. Unfortunately, the defense gave up a ton of yards as well. That’s a weakness this team will need to address. Hopefully they come up with a solution sooner rather than later.

Next week it’s the Cornhuskers against the Kansas State Wildcats.
