The solid effort was enough to put up nine points in the first half to lead Nebraska by two, which concluded the game's scoring. The nine points turned out to be sufficient to win against the poor Cornhusker offensive effort, which turned over the ball a school-record eight times (including four inside of Iowa State's five-yard line). The turnovers negated Nebraska's 362–239 edge in yards gained. The Cyclones enjoyed their first win in Memorial Stadium since 1977. First-year Head coach Paul Rhoads said about the game, "When you don't win in a stadium on the road since 1977, it's big."https://www.espn.com/college-football/recap?gameId=292970158 https://web.archive.org/web/20190110010100/http://www.espn.com/college-football/recap?gameId=292970158 dead January 10, 2019 Iowa St. forces 8 turnovers, 4 inside own 5-yard line, in upset of Nebraska ESPN.com August 25, 2019 right Iowa State post-game celebration Vs.
