17th. Nebraska is ranked and Iowa is not. All is right in the world again. Not that any of these polls matter, just nice to be talked about again. We needed this.

Poll points: 147

Last week's ranking: Not ranked

Week 3 result: Won 35-32 vs. Oregon

Week 4 matchup: Sept. 24 at Northwestern


Nebraska (3-0) won a back-and-forth game by being the last to score, getting a 34-yard touchdown run from Tommy Armstrong Jr. with 2:29 left.

Armstrong had 295 yards of total offense and four total TDs, throwing for three scores and adding 95 rushing yards. His three-yard TD pass to Jordan Westerkamp—who had two scores—with five seconds left in the first half pulled the Cornhuskers within six points, and they took their first lead early in the second half when Armstrong connected with Bryan Reimers from 22 yards out.

The Huskers were outgained 482-428 and allowed 336 rushing yards but still managed to pull out a close one. Last year they were 3-6 in games decided by eight or fewer points.
