The win went to senior Brian Zubor (1-0), and OU’s Kyle Denny (0 2) took the loss. “That was a strange game - a lot of changes in the weather and the lead,” Arnold said. “Our guys did their job, and I was able to do mine too.” wistrom first of six Husker draft picks DRAFT from page 9 ing for the Rams, and hopefully we can make it a third.” Wistrom was joined in the first round by defensive tackle Jason Peter, who was drafted by Carolina with the 14th pick overall.
