This time, at home, against No. 7 Michigan State, the Huskers finally got the break they had been waiting for.

With the Huskers trailing Michigan State 38-33 and less than 30 seconds remaining on the game clock, senior QB Tommy Armstrong hit Brandon Reilly with a 30-yard touchdown pass. The play went to the replay booth, as Reilly clearly went out of bounds and came back in to make the catch. However, officials ruled cornerback Jermaine Edmondson forced him out and the play stood as Nebraska stunned Michigan State, 39-38.

Mark Dantonio's thoughts on the play?

"I got an explanation, yeah," Mark Dantonio said. "They said the receiver was pushed out of bounds.

"I saw the replay. Everybody saw the replay. That's not my job. My job is to coach, and I'm going to do the very best I can. That's somebody else's job."
