Neb. intercepts OU's Jones 5 times in 10-3 win (AP)

Sat, 07 Nov 2009 22:18:59 PST

No matter how ugly, a victory against Oklahoma is always special for Nebraska. Just ask Cornhuskers coach Bo Pelini. "I've had some great ones, but this ranks right up there," Nebraska's second-year coach said. Matt O'Hanlon had three of the Huskers' five interceptions against Landry Jones, and they squeezed enough production out of their struggling offense to beat No.

Huskers, Sooners set for battle of defensive lines (AP)

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 01:53:02 PST

Nebraska and Oklahoma have been laying it on the line all season. That would be the defensive line. The Cornhuskers' Ndamukong Suh and the 20th-ranked Sooners' Gerald McCoy are the best known of the men in the middle, but they've gotten plenty of help as their teams' defenses have developed into two of the nation's best.

Cody Green was a man with a plan. Knowing Nebraska starting quarterback Joe Ganz would leave after last season, Green chose to graduate from high school last December so he could start college in January and be able to participate in spring practice. A week after supplanting Zac Lee as the starter, Green is preparing to face 20th-ranked Oklahoma (5-3, 3-1) Saturday in a game that could go a long...

Nebraska Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)

Tue, 03 Nov 2009 22:16:02 PST

A quick glance at Oklahoma might suggest the Sooners are a merely average team that is beatable.

The Sooners, who played in last year's BCS title game, are 5-3 overall, playing without their Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback and just surrendered 30 points at home to Kansas State.

Nebraska coach Bo Pelini knows to look beyond the numbers when it comes to Oklahoma.

"Hell of a football team, very good defense," Pelini said. "They play hard and are talented. It's a very good defense. As good as we've seen."

So yes, Nebraska will be the underdog when these historic rivals meet Saturday night in Lincoln. The Huskers are gasping for air on offense and are expected to have freshman Cody Green make his second start.
