Just to clarify how huge a win...

Exactly!

We are Nebraska. We don't make excuses!

but how many times have we played them?

I heard this was our first non conference win over a ranked opponent in 15 years.

I heard this was our first non conference win over a ranked opponent in 15 years.

For years, all the "firsts" have been negative, "biggest loss at home, most yards rushing given up, first time to loose two non-conference in a row" bla bla bla

How refreshing is this?

We're currently 6-1 all time against the Ducks. Back in the 70's/80's we played them 4 times and won those games (they beat us in '53, we won in '52). They were one of the "pre-season" teams we'd play gearing up for the conference play. 1986 was the last time we played Oregon...
