With quarterback Tommie Frazier sidelined by blood clots, Brook Berringer earned his first career start and led the Huskers to their first come-from-behind victory of the season, a 42-32 win over Wyoming.

Nebraska was down 21-7 with 2:12 left in the first half after two Husker turnovers led to two Wyoming scores, but Berringer orchestrated a 2-minute drill beginning at the NU 36-yard line, completing seven straight passes for 59 yards, and scored on a 5-yard jaunt to cut the lead to 21-14 at halftime.

Berringer directed four consecutive scoring drives during a seven-minute span of the second and third quarters, unknowingly playing with a partially collapsed lung, which occurred during his TD run late in the first half. With 8:11 left in the third quarter, the Huskers’ 14-point deficit had turned into a 35-21 lead. Nebraska then fended off a Wyoming rally to secure the victory.

To be fair, Marcus Harris was an all-time great WR for Wyoming.  Dude had 3 straight 1,400-yard, double-digit TD seasons.

Barron Miles was a solid corner and a senior
Tyrone Williams was a junior corner
Tony Veland a junior Free Safety that converted from QB
Kareem Moss a senior Rover

Eric Stokes was a soph Corner
not a lot of depth at corner, probably didn't play much nickel and no chance of a dime package

I left that game at halftime to drive to Ames to see the Rolling Stones that night.  

94 team kind of let Iowa State and OU hang around a bit as well.  Offensively at times Nebraska was a bit challenged.    The Turman game was something else.

Gameday came to Lincoln twice that year, once for the UCLA game which ended up being a drubbing.

The only time I've been to Memorial Stadium was '94 vs Kansas. That was a bloodbath.

At the time that was what passed for a passing clinic for Nebraska.   Brooks had a day throwing a ball that day.
