♦ The 1st time since November 22nd 1980 that Nebraska has lost a game with a starting QB wearing #11. Jeff Quinn accomplished this against Oklahoma.

♦ The 1st time in Nebraska football history we have lost a game overseas.

♦ The 1st time Nebraska has given up over 500 yards in offense to Northwestern

♦ The 1st time since November 15th 2003 that Nebraska has lost a game when only committing 1 penalty. The ast time overall was the 38-9 Kansas State drubbing at home.Before that, you have to go back to October 15th 1977 in the Iowa State home loss, Home games to Oklahoma in 1976, 1974 and 1972 before that. Kansas State and Missouri at home in 1968, It was the first non-home loss while committing 1 penalty since the October 14th 1967 shut out loss against Kansas.

♦ Scott Frost is the 1st Husker head coach to lose 30 games before his 16th win since Bill Jennings. Jennings never won #16. Frost now has the WORST win/loss percentage since Bill Jennings. If Frost loses 4 more games in a row, he passes Jenning for worst for a coach with 40+ games.

♦ Anthony Grant is the 1st Husker wearing #10 to rush for over 100 yards since Roy Helu.
