2014 Week 5

Going into the game, UNI has played Auburn two times. In 2012, the first year with Pelini as coach, UNI took down Auburn by a score of 38-7. Last year, it was a much closer game with the outcome being UNI 27-24 on a last second field goal to win the game for the Panthers.
This year, no contest. UNI shutout Auburn by a score of 59-0. HB Steve Jackson would lead the way with 352 rushing yards and 6 touchdowns. Newly acquired QB Victor Welsh would prove to be a huge asset as he ran for 136 yards and a touchdown and passed for 164 yards and a touchdown. 7 of the 8 touchdowns came by way of ground. Next up for the UNI Panthers is a tough SEC matchup and a team that has beaten Coach Pelini, #5 Tennessee.
