Nebraska has fired football coach Bo Pelini after seven seasons and a 67-27 record, including a 22-10 Big Ten clip.

Nebraska A.D. Shawn Eichorst announced the decision Sunday morning, two days after Pelini and Nebraska rallied to an exciting overtime win at Iowa in the regular-season finale.

The Huskers finished the 2014 season 9-3, the seventh straight year Pelini won at least nine games, and appear to be destined for a quality bowl.

Wherever they end up playing in the postseason, the Huskers will be without their head coach. Assistant Barney Cotton will serve as the interim coach.
