Nebraska’s game plan worked to near perfection from the opening kickoff.

Freshman running back Rex Burkhead led the way on the ground with a game high 89 yards and a touchdown on 17 carries. Nebraska held the ball for over 38 minutes as compared to Arizona who was on offense for just over 21.

“We got whacked by a very good team.”

Nebraska’s All American defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh said in a post game interview,  We have been getting better week in, week out and we had one last chance to do it as a team in 2009. That’s why we wanted to shut them down and make them realize that they needed to respect us.

“Nebraska’s back and we’re here to stay.”
