#120 UNI Pulls Off Second Straight Upset

In as many weeks as the UNI Panthers have played Top 25 ranked teams, they have won both match-ups.
UNI somehow came away with a victory over the #19 Georgia Bulldogs with not a single offensive touchdown.
They had two great players during the game. K Jason Johnson kept UNI in the game the entire time by hitting 5 of 5 field goals and HB Mikel LeShoure kept them close at half and gave them the win by returning two kick returns for touchdowns.
This was the third highest greatest game coached by Bo Pelini and was also recorded on VHS to review later.
Coach Pelini had these comments after the game: "Georgia was hurt by too many excessive celebrations that helped us by taking them out of field goal range, and I believe my team learned from their mistakes by not celebrating too much until we become a better team. We all spent the week reviewing tapes of our last win against #19 Auburn and we took all of that to this game and we won."
Next week will be a true test to see how good UNI really has become after their loss in the first week. UNI has come a long way since their old coach and many think UNI can keep the game close at #7 LSU next week.
