Coach Osborne told us at half time that the defense might have to win the game. We felt we could hold them until the offense got the job done. In contrast to Nebraska's good field position in the first half, Missouri spent most of the half deep in its own territory. Five times the Tigers started drives in side their own 20-yard line. Much of this was due to the punting of Grant Campbell who had five of his punts downed inside the Tiger 20-yard line. The Huskers took the second half kick off and drove from their 20-yard line to the Missouri 34 before they were forced to punt. After stopping the Tigers, Nebraska got the ball back and drove to the Missouri 25 yard line where Kevin Seibel missed his second field goal of the day. Missouri threatened briefly early in the fourth quarter when Tiger running back Bob Meyer broke a 37-yard run and would have scored if he had not been caught from behind by defensive end Jimmy Williams. "I saw him break at least two tackles at the line of scrimmage ... so I just ran as fast as 1 could. He was real hard to bring down the whole day," Williams said.

The Tigers once again held and Seibel missed his third field goal attempt of the afternoon. The Tigers were unable to move the ball any further than the 35-yard-line and the stage was set for the Nebraska's climatic drive of the afternoon. The Huskers moved the ball almost ex clusively through the air, the big plays being passes of 24 and 21 yards to Todd Brown. Roger Craig said Nebraska caught Missouri off guard on the last series. "They contained our option well and so on the last series they expected us to run and that opened up the pass, Craig said. "Their defense was penetrating real well and it took away the option. We knew sooner or later that it was going to break, Gill said. Nebraska Coach Tom Osborne had praise for the Tigers. "Missouri played very well, Osborne said. "They were a different team today than the team that played Iowa State. Tiger Coach Warren Powers was natural ly disappointed. "It was very tough - a tough way to lose, Powers said. "They (the "Missouri players) deserve better than that, but they didn't get it, and Nebraska deserved to win. They took that last drive and drove it in there and scored. That was about it.
