Date: October 24
Location: Memorial Stadium, Lincoln, Nebraska
Game start: 11:41 a.m. CDT
Elapsed time: 3:09
Game attendance: 85,938
Game weather: Overcast, 44 °F (7 °C), Wind SSE@3 mph (4.8 km/h)
Referee: Karl Richins
TV announcers (FSN): Joel Meyers (Play-by-play), Dave Lapham (Color) & Jim Knox (Sideline)

The Cyclones entered Memorial Stadium without their leading quarterback and rushing threat and subsequently played an error-free game. The solid effort was enough to put up 9 points in the first half to lead Nebraska by 2, which concluded the game's scoring. The 9 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."^[17]
