Nebraska's defense pressured Josh Freeman all day, sacking him four times. The Wildcats had 428 yards, but most came after the game was out of hand. Jordy Nelson set a new school record for receiving yards in a season after collecting 125 yards on nine catches, breaking James Terry's mark of 1,232 set back in 2003. The 100-yard receiving effort was also his seventh of the season, a new K-State record.
