Kicker Keith Duncan had ice-water in his veins, as he was able to block out the noise of the opposing crowd to make the kick of his career so far. Not just that..he rubbed their faces in it.

And while Hawkeye nation is ecstatic, the Cornhuskers and their fans have to be devastated. With a record of 5-7 now, there's a super slim-to-none chance they'll make a bowl game to cap off their season.
Next year Nebraska will be in a bowl game, 100%. Proud of the program for not quiting today, but need more big plays on both sides of the ball. #getworking

It looks like Nebraska will miss a bowl for the third straight season for the first time since 1961. At least there's always next year.
