The first quarter was a scare for the Husker fans as they were shutout in the first quarter. The fans weren't worried as the Huskers made a quick set of scores in the 2nd Quarter and in the end finished with a W. The Huskers are ever so close to playing in the National Championship game. They'll need help from the polls and the Top 2 teams. With the #1 Florida Gators losing, the Huskers will move up to #4 in the polls and play in the Big XII Championship game against Texas who is one rank ahead of the Huskers at #3. With a win over #3 Texas, the Huskers will look from help from the top two ranked teams and if both teams win, then the Huskers will just hope that their strength of schedule is strong enough to jump the #2 BCS team in order to play in the National Championship game.
