Check out how the final weekend of the Big Ten regular season went.
Bye bye Big Ten Championship game. Hello crappy bowl and soon to be acrimonious off-season. The Aftermath is here to start the grieving process.
Casey Thompson threw for three touchdowns, and Nebraska ruined Iowa’s chance to clinch the Big Ten West Division title with a 24-17 win. The Huskers (4-8, 3-6 Big Ten) snapped a five-game losing streak, and broke a seven-game losing streak to the Hawkeyes (7-5, 5-4). Iowa had its four-game winning streak snapped. Thompson threw touchdown passes of 87 and 18 yards to Trey Palmer in the first half and a 14-yarder to Marcus Washington in the third as Nebraska built a 24-0 lead. Iowa had a chance to tie the game with two possessions in the final 3:20, but couldn't score.
If Friday was his last game at the helm of the Nebraska football program, Mickey Joseph went out in style, delivering the team its first win over Iowa since Bo Pelini's last game in 2014.
Big Ten Championship hopes are hanging by a thread
